英文常見病句300句精選十則二十二

　　英文病句急診室300句，分析在口語和寫作中容易犯的英語錯(cuò)誤，含有正確使用方法及解析。

　　1. How do you explain her eccentric behaviors? (x)

　　How do you explain her eccentric behavior't.(√)

　　behavior表“行為”，是不可數(shù)名詞。

　　2. Your behavior is like an idiot. (x)

　　Your behavior is like an idiot's. (√)

　　You behave like an idiot. (√)

　　英文的語言邏輯:某人可以像白癡(因白癡也是人).但行為是“物”，不能像白癡，故無法對應(yīng)。上述兩個(gè)正確的例句中，your behavior 可以和 an idiot's(省略behavior)對應(yīng); you可以和 an idiot對應(yīng)。

　　3. He srore to find out the truth on the back of the rumor.(x)

　　He swore to find out the truth behind the rumor. (√)

　　on the back of sth是指“具體物體的背面”。the truth / motive behind sth是指“某事/物背后的真相/動(dòng)機(jī)”，為固定用法。

　　4. I believe in George this time because he seems to be telling the truth.(x)

　　I believe George this time because he seems to be telling the truth.(√)

　　believe in sb / sth是“相信某人/物存在”，如:I believe in God / ghosts.(我相信上帝/鬼魂存在著。) believe sb是“相信某人所說的話”。另外believe in sb也有“信賴某人(的能力/人格)”的意思，如:We want a President that we can believe in.(我們要的是一個(gè)可以信賴的總統(tǒng)。)

　　5. Quite a few people still believe capital punishment.(x)

　　Quite a few people still believe in capital punishment. (√)

　　believe sth是“相信某事/物是真的”，如:I believe nothing she says.(我不相信她說的任何一句話。) believe in sth是“相信某事/物有益或有效”，所以有“主張”的意思，如:As far as losing weight is concerned, I believe in taking exercise. (就減肥而言，我主張運(yùn)動(dòng)。)

　　6. Can you believe in your eyes?(x)

　　Can you believe your eyes?(√)

　　can / could (not / hardly) believe your eyes / ears，即“能不能相信自己的親眼所見或親且所聞”，常用于否定句或疑問句中，為固定用法。

　　7. I deeply believe that nature will bite back.(x)

　　I firmly believe that nature will bite back.(√)

　　deeply believe是中文式的說法.英文無此說法。要說“對某事/物深信不疑”，正確的說法是 firmly / sincerely / strongly / truly believe (that).....

　　8. The dictionary belongs to that shelf.(x)

　　The dictionary belongs on that shelf. (√)

　　belong to sb是“屬于某人”的意思，如:The encyclopedia belongs to me.(這套百科全書屬于我。) belong on / in是“(該)歸位在某個(gè)地方”的意思。

　　9. Please go back where you belong to. (x)
