19. The Engineering Department just purchased a lot of new ______.
(A) equipment
(B) tool

這題要考的應是選出"合文意的字彙"，若是英文不錯的人,以第六感會選(A)。這4個字其實用法不同,The Engineering Department just purchased a lot of new ______.(工程部剛剛購買了很多新的______)

(A) equipment(設備)：Whatever is used in equipping something or someone, for example things needed for an expedition or voyage.無論用於裝備什麼東西或某人，例如探險或航行所需的東西或機器。 

(B) tool(工具)：Something to perform an operation; an instrument; a means. 執行操作的東西;一種工具;一種方式。例如：螺絲起子,槌頭等。

(C) facility(設施)：The physical means or contrivances to make something (especially a public service) possible; the required equipment, infrastructure, location etc.實現某種東西（特別是公共服務）的物質手段或設計;所需的設備，基礎設施，位置等。例如：捷運設施,運動公園內的設施等。

(D) installation(安裝)：Something installed, especially the whole of a system of machines, apparatus, and accessories, when set up and arranged for practical working, as in electric lighting, transmission of power, etc.

安裝的東西，尤其是整個機器，設備和附件系統，在設置和安排實際工作時，如電氣照明，電力傳輸等。

所以(A)為合意者。
