詞族
physician noun 醫師；醫生・physicians plural noun 醫師（複數）
四選一
The clinic has hired three ____ to join its existing medical team.
看答案
physicians
three 後需接複數名詞 physicians，表示三位醫師。physician 是單數；physician's 和 physicians' 是所有格，此處沒有可供其修飾或省略的名詞，不能直接表示受聘的三位醫師。
同義改寫
The physician will meet the clinic manager at noon. → The medical doctor will meet the clinic manager at noon.
此處 physician 指醫師，可改為 medical doctor；會面對象與時間不變。
Please send the updated agenda to the physician who is speaking at our seminar. → Please send the updated agenda to the medical doctor who is speaking at our seminar.
兩句都要求把更新後的議程寄給擔任研討會講者的醫師，medical doctor 保留醫療專業身分。
