  • violate
  • violator
  • violated
看答案

violate

助動詞 would 後面須接原形動詞 violate,並以 rules 為受詞。violation 是行為名詞,violator 是指人的名詞,兩者都不能充當此處的動詞;violated 不是原形。

同義改寫

Removing equipment without permission is a violation of company rules. → Removing equipment without permission breaks company rules.
is a violation of 與 breaks 在此都表示違反公司規定;改寫保留了同一行為與規則範圍。
She considered the visitor's unauthorized entry into her private office a violation of her personal space. → She considered the visitor's unauthorized entry into her private office an intrusion into her personal space.
在未經許可進入私人辦公室的具體情境中,violation 可改寫為 intrusion;兩句都保留這是她對該行為的看法。
