When you ------present you must use both hands 为什么不用receive

这些动词均有“接受、接纳”之意.
accept:强调主动地或自愿地接受,或者说,经过考虑后同意接受.
receive:着重仅仅接到或收到这一结论或事实,而不含采取主动或积极行动的意思.
admit:作“接受”讲时,强调准许或批准.
take:与receive同意,是receive的日常用法,侧重不带主观意愿地收下或接受.
1.receive与accept的区别：receive意为“收到”,表示客观的,accept意为“接受”,表示主观的.当accept a gift时,表示接受了礼物,不会再退回,而receive a gift时,只是收到了礼物,可能还会退回.
2.receive只是一时的动作,因此不能说I have received your letter 3 days.应该改为It is 3 days since I received your letter；
3.receive from/of的意思是“从某处或某人那收到（款项）”,如received from/of Sam seven pounds；
