He has worked over the years for many organizations all around the world, both as a management______ and as an executive development facilitator. (consult)

题目解答

答案

根据题意，空格处需填入“consult”的名词形式。将“consult”变为“consultant”可构成“management consultant”（管理顾问），与后文“executive development facilitator”并列。其他形式如“consult”或“consulting”均不符合语法规则或语义要求。最终，完整句子为： He has worked over the years for many organizations all around the world, both as a management consultant and as an executive development facilitator. 答案：consultant

解析

本题考查名词形式的选择，核心在于根据语境和语法确定“consult”转化为名词的正确形式。关键点在于：

  1. “as a management____”中，空格需填入名词，与“executive development facilitator”并列；
  2. “consult”转化为名词时需加“-ant”，形成“consultant”（顾问），而非直接使用动词或动名词形式。

  1. 分析句子结构
    句子中“as a management____”和“as an executive development facilitator”为并列结构，均表示职业身份。因此，空格处需填入与“facilitator”同为名词的词。

  2. 确定词性转换规则
    “Consult”是动词，意为“咨询、商议”。转化为名词时，需添加后缀“-ant”，变为“consultant”（顾问），表示从事相关职业的人。

  3. 排除干扰形式

    • “Consult”本身是动词，不能直接作名词使用；
    • “Consulting”是动名词形式，通常表示“咨询”这一行为或行业，而非具体职业身份。

  4. 验证语义匹配
    “Management consultant”（管理顾问）与“executive development facilitator”（高管发展促进员）均为具体职业，语义对称。
