巧记以-or 结尾的名词英语中表示人的职业、身份的名词大多数是以-er 结尾的。如teacher,worker,waiter,singer,writer等。但也有少数是以-or 结尾的。如actor,educator,inventor,visitor,doctor,conductor,monitor,professor 等。对于这类词的拼写,学生往往容易弄混。妙计:The inventor asked the two visitors,the doctor and the conductor,to visit our professor and monitor.发明家请医生和售票员两名参观者拜访我们的教授和班长。
