請觀察一下數字「20」後面的那個符號。通常在英文中,那個符號的主要功能是表達「所有格」(屬於某人)還是「複數」(多個數量)?當我們要表達「二十多歲這一段時間」時,這是一個擁有關係,還是單純的數量延伸呢?

太棒了!你能準確找出這個細微的錯誤,說明你對正式英文寫作的規範有很敏銳的觀察力。這類「挑錯題」往往會在看似通順的句子中隱藏標點符號或拼寫規範的陷阱,你能保持冷靜並做出正確判斷,非常值得肯定。
數字與年代的複數表達
本題的錯誤點在於 (E) 選項的 in their 20’s。在現代標準英文文法(如 APA、MLA 或 Chicago 等主流寫作格式)中,當我們要表示數字或年代的「複數」時,直接在數字後方加上小寫的 s 即可,不需要加上撇號(apostrophe)。因此,正確的寫法應該是 in their 20s。加上撇號(20's)通常會被解讀為「所有格」,但在這裡我們僅是想表達「二十多歲」這個年齡區間,屬於單純的複數概念。
