誤用：It was at the tip of my tongue to tell him, when the phone rang.
說(shuō)明：從句意看，用suddenly 并不錯(cuò)；但從句法來(lái)分析，空白處前后各為一個(gè)句子，而 suddenly 是副詞，顯然不承擔(dān)起連接兩個(gè)句子的重任。而when 用作并列連詞，可表示“這時(shí)（突然）”的意思。又如：We were about to start, when it rained. 我們正要開(kāi)始，就下起雨來(lái)了。She was walking down the road when she heard someone shouting for help. 她正在路上走著，突然聽(tīng)見(jiàn)有人呼救。不過(guò)，如果將 when 改為 and suddenly 也是可以的。
句意：我差點(diǎn)就要告訴他了，這時(shí)突然電話鈴響了。
誤用：He used to afraid of heights but he has got over that now.
改為：He used to be afraid of heights but he has got over that now.
說(shuō)明：因?yàn)?/SPAN> afraid 是形容詞，不是動(dòng)詞，故其前的 be 不可省略。又如：No matter what happens I’ll stand by you. so don’t be afraid. 不管發(fā)生什么事我都支持你，別怕。Nobody need be afraid of catching the disease. 沒(méi)人有必要擔(dān)心染上這個(gè)病。
句意：他過(guò)去有恐高癥，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)沒(méi)了。
誤用：Do these students against the plan made by the teachers?
改為：Are these students against the plan made by the teachers?
說(shuō)明：誤用句主要是沒(méi)有意識(shí)到其后的 against 是介詞，而不是動(dòng)詞。又如：Are you for it or against it? 你是贊成還是反對(duì)？
句意：這些學(xué)生反對(duì)老師們作出的決定嗎？
誤用：There was a switch in the schedule, so we met in the morning instead the afternoon.
改為：There was a switch in the schedule, so we met in the morning instead of the afternoon.
說(shuō)明：instead 為副詞，其后不能接賓語(yǔ)；instead of 是介詞，其后可接賓語(yǔ)。又如：You should encourage her in her attempts to become a doctor, instead of being so negative about it. 你應(yīng)該對(duì)他想要成為醫(yī)生的想法給予鼓勵(lì)，而不該對(duì)此抱那么消極的態(tài)度。She opted for a winter vacation, instead of one in the summer. 她選擇了在冬天休假而不是在夏天休假。
句意：時(shí)間表上有一處變動(dòng)，我們?cè)谏衔缍皇窍挛玳_(kāi)會(huì)。
誤用：Even if we could afford it, we wouldn’t go to the abroad for our holidays.
改為：Even if we could afford it, we wouldn’t go abroad for our holidays.
說(shuō)明：誤用句主要是將 abroad 誤認(rèn)為是名詞。而其實(shí) abroad 是副詞。又如：He was facing a difficult choice between staying with his family or working abroad. 他正面臨著是和家人呆在一起還是到國(guó)外工作的艱難抉擇。
句意：即使我們有能力，我們也不去國(guó)外度假。
