本题解释:
From GBCI Website GBCI Policy Manual:

A project must adhere to the LEED Minimum Program Requirements, (MPRs) in order to achieve LEED certification. LEED projects must comply with each applicable MPR. These requirements define the types of buildings that the LEED Green Building Rating Systems were designed to evaluate, and taken together serve three goals:


to give clear guidance to customers
to protect the integrity of the LEED program
and to reduce complications that occur during the LEED Certification process

MPRs have 3 goals (above), and 7 things that must be complied with. The difference is goals vs. tasks. MPRs are minimum characteristics that a project must possess in order to be eligible for LEED Certification.

MPRs do not ensure prerequisites are met. The certification process (leedonline) and the people reviewing LEED applications ensure the prerequisites are met and that the building has met the credits applied for.

In addition to the Minimum Program Requirements, each version of LEED contains unique prerequisite requirements that must be satisfied in order to achieve certification. The term prerequisite refers to a mandatory project characteristic, measurement, quality, value or function as identified within the LEED rating system. Prerequisites represent the key criteria that define green building performance. Each project must satisfy all specified prerequisites outlined in the LEED rating system under which it is registered. Failure to meet any prerequisite will render a project ineligible for certification.
