問：以下一句，Rosalie之前要不要加Ms？又end of March之前要不要加the？──Please note that the
Rosalie from Central Building confirmed the light box will be installed in end
of March since their contractor's serious delays。
答：這一句大概是說：「請注意：中央大樓的羅莎莉證實，由於承辦商耽擱嚴重，燈箱要到三月下旬才會安裝好。」Ms、Mr等稱謂，應用在姓氏或姓名之前，例如Ms（Rosalie）Lee；卻不可用在沒有姓氏的名字之前，例如不可說Ms Rosalie。事實上，「中央大樓的羅莎莉」這說法非常古怪。要說某人，寫出姓名就可以，一般不會以某大樓來界定該人身分。
此外，since解作「由於」，其後須用子句（clause），because of之後才可用名詞，例如：The work cannot be completed in time since it has
been plagued by unforeseen delays / The work cannot be completed in time
because of unforeseen delays。
至於end
of March之前，應該加the。全句我會改寫如下：Please
note that Ms Rosalie Lee has confirmed that the light box will not be installed
till the end of March because of their contractor's serious delays。
問：貴欄說「提供某物給某人」英文是to provide something for someone或to provide
someone with something。為什麼英文報紙卻有以下一句，用to而不用for？──Schools should provide
training to staff（學校應訓練教師）。
答：英文報紙的英文不一定正確。這一句的to應改為for。
