Resumo da lição
Notice how 堪称 works in 堪称 A: 这次抢修速度之快，堪称行业典范。
堪称…… means "can be called; may be regarded as" and is used with the frame 堪称 A. Use it when you need to express this exact logical relation: deserve to be called A after evaluation. Do not use it as a loose translation word; first check whether the two parts of the sentence really match the relation. Common mistakes include dropping 于 in 于-phrases, putting the key word after the object, or confusing similar patterns such as 称得上, 可谓, 算是. In formal writing, keep the clauses complete and avoid mixing two cause-result connectors unless the sentence truly needs both.
