中英之鑒 中式英語(yǔ)之鑒324

[誤] He shot the rabbit but it managed to escape.

[正] He shot at the rabbit but it managed to escape.

注：shot 單獨(dú)用有“射中”或“射死”的意思，用在這里顯然前后矛盾。又如：She shot the wolf jumping on her(她射死了撲向她的狼)。shot at 才表示“朝......瞄準(zhǔn)”，而不管是否射中。

參考例句：They ran the risk of being shot at any moment 他們冒著隨時(shí)會(huì)中彈的危險(xiǎn)
