Complete each of the following sentences with a (compound) word derived from the one(s) given in brackets.
His poor ( ) may be attributed to lack of motivation rather than to reading difficulties.(perform)
【正确答案】:PERFORMANCE
【题目解析】:
本题考查常用动词的名词形式。
由poor和may be可知,空缺处应填名词作主语,perform的名词形式是performance意为“表演、演技”。
句意:他拙劣的演技更可能是因为缺乏行动力而不是阅读困难。
