Question

recipient n.接受者；收信人 (1) 获奖者名单登在报上。(2) 邮递员几乎花了整整一天时间寻找该信的收信人。 Just as an actor can be the recipient of a prize for acting, a banker can be the recipient of a bonus for good banking. You'll notice the connection between recipient and receive. In order to be a recipient you have to receive something, whether it's a prize or just a letter in the mail. If it's true that it's better to give than to receive, does that mean it's better to be a giver than a recipient?
