×He is a reporter of the New York Times.
✓He is a reporter for the New York Times.
使用 'for' 來表示為某個機構或媒體工作,而不是 'of'。'Of' 通常表示所屬關係,但在此語境下不自然。
×The reporter asked many questions to the president.
✓The reporter asked the president many questions.
動詞 'ask' 的常見結構是 'ask someone something',而不是 'ask something to someone'。
×She is a news reporter.
✓She is a reporter. / She is a journalist.
'Reporter' 本身已包含報導新聞的意思,加上 'news' 是多餘的,雖然有時用於強調特定領域(如 sports reporter),但一般情況下單用 'reporter' 即可。'Journalist' 是更廣泛的用詞。
×I want to be a reporter since I like to write.
✓I want to be a reporter because I like to write.
'Since' 表示時間或原因時較正式,在口語中表達直接原因時,'because' 更常見且自然。此處是說明想成為記者的原因。
×The reporter's report was very detailed.
✓The reporter's article/story/coverage was very detailed.
雖然 'report' 可以是名詞,但用 'reporter's report' 聽起來重複且不自然。通常會使用更具體的詞,如 article(文章)、story(報導)、coverage(報導內容)或 piece(報導)。
×He is a reporter who is working in BBC.
✓He is a reporter who works for the BBC.
使用一般現在時 'works' 描述穩定的職業狀態比進行式 'is working' 更自然。此外,機構名稱 'BBC' 前通常使用定冠詞 'the'。
