中學生英語學習常見錯誤一覽表3
homgwork
[誤] i have so many homework to do today.
[正] i have so much homework go do today.
[析] homework為不可數名詞。同樣的詞還有work(work作為"著作"、"作品"、"工廠"講時為可數名詞),fun,health information等。
hope
[誤] i hope you to be a good student.
[正] i hope you will be a good student.
[析] hope一詞不能接賓語再加上賓語補足語,但它可以接不定式作賓語,如:i hope to be a scientist.而wish卻可以接賓語加賓語補足語,如:i wish you to be a good student.
[誤] i don't hope you will go to the park tomorrow.
[正] i hope you won't go to the park tomorrow.
[析] hope 和think在否定句中的用法不同,如"我認為你錯了"。應譯為:i don't think you are right.即否定在前。而hope則不能這樣用。又如在答語中"我不這樣認為"應譯為i don't think so.或i hope not.
[誤] i hope your help.
[正] i hope for your help.
[析] hope for為"期望某事發生",雖然hope是及物動詞,但表達期望某事情發生要用"hope for+名詞"這一結構。
[誤] i was hopeful to pass the exam.
[正] i was hopeful of passing the exam.
[析] 對某事存有希望應用"hopeful of (about)+介詞賓語"這一結構。
hospital
[誤] my mother was in the hospital for two weeks.
[正] my mother was in hospital for two weeks.
[析] in hospital為"住院就醫"。而in (at) the hospital 為"在醫院(工作)"。如:he is a doctor in (at) the hospital.類似的用法還有很多,如:"上學"為go to school,at school為"在校就讀",go to bed為"上床睡覺"。
how
[誤] i want to know how to do.
[正] i want to know how to do it.
[析] how 是關聯副詞,要注意與關聯代詞的不同用法。如:i want to know what to do.
[誤] how do you think about it?
[正] what do you think about it?
[析] 英文中表達你對某事的看法如何應用what do you think about…這一句式。
hurry
[誤] let's hurry. there is a little time left.
[正] let's hurry. there is little time left.
[誤] don't worry. there is little time left.
[正] don't worry. there is a little time left.
[析] 請注意英語中的慣用法:"快點吧,沒時間了",或"別著急還有一點時間。"
[誤] the car is hurrying through the street.
[正] the car is rushing throught the street.
[析] hurry一詞只用于人而不用于物體。
hundred
[誤] there are two hundreds people here.
[正] there are two hundred people here.
[誤] there are hundred of people here.
[正] there are hundreds of people here.
[析] hundred一詞前如有數字時不論多少其后都不加s,這和thousand(千)等數量詞的用法一樣,而hundreds of是數百的,這一詞組一定要加s.
hurt
[誤] i don't want to wound her feelings.
[正] i don't want to hurt her feelings.
