Re: Freelance writing article
Hi Amanda,
We have received your article __ (1) __ “A Delightful Performance” about performance artist Dee Lite. Before publication, I have had to make some adjustments to allow for the required word count, which you overlooked. In addition, the third paragraph has been removed. __ (2) __ it is far from ordinary, the artist’s upbringing and early family life would not be of any interest to our readers. __ (3) __ Finally, the last sentence was rewritten by an in-house staff writer. The use of foul language is inappropriate for our publication, which has a G classification for general readership.

1 . 理由
a.原句實為：We have received your article which is entitled “A Delightful Performance” about performance artist Dee Lite.
b. 在限定修飾的形容詞子句（即關係代名詞前無逗點）中，若關係代名詞作主詞時，則該形容詞子句可化簡為分詞片語。即：將關係代名詞 which 刪除，再將 be 動詞 is 變成現在分詞 being 後予以省略，故答案選 (C) entitled。
c. entitle vt.給（文章、書等）題名（常用被動）
be entitled + 名稱 被題名為⋯⋯
• Jason bought a book entitled Music and Life.傑森買了一本名為《音樂與生活》的書。
