Vocabulary
To be run vs to be powered
Dear users,
I am doing an exercise from Advance Language Practice by Michael Vince. I like the book a lot but unfortunately the key does not provide any explanation of why an answer is wrong. I can't figure out why in the following sentence run is better than powered.
This small vacuum cleaner is motivated/run/powered by batteries.
Could you help me please?
Beni
