四選一

The award ____ was invited to speak about her work at the staff meeting.

  • receive
  • recipients
  • recipient
  • receiving
看答案

recipient

此處需要表示得獎者的單數名詞,因此選 recipient。receive 是動詞原形;recipients 是複數,與 was 不符;receiving 即使作動作名詞,也不能表示句中受邀分享工作經驗的女性得獎者。

同義改寫

The recipient of the package works on the third floor. → The person receiving the package works on the third floor.
此處 recipient 指接收這件包裹的人,改寫後保留相同人物與工作樓層。
Maya was the recipient of this year's customer service award. → Maya received this year's customer service award.
「是獎項得主」改寫為「獲得獎項」,人物、獎項與年份均相同。
