英文常见病句300句精选十则二十二

　　英文病句急诊室300句，分析在口语和写作中容易犯的英语错误，含有正确使用方法及解析。

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

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

　　behavior表“行为”，是不可数名词。

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

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

　　You behave like an idiot. (√)

　　英文的语言逻辑:某人可以像白痴(因白痴也是人).但行为是“物”，不能像白痴，故无法对应。上述两个正确的例句中，your behavior 可以和 an idiot's(省略behavior)对应; you可以和 an idiot对应。

　　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“具体物体的背面”。the truth / motive behind sth是指“某事/物背后的真相/动机”，为固定用法。

　　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/鬼魂存在着。) believe sb是“相信某人所说的话”。另外believe in sb也有“信赖某人(的能力/人格)”的意思，如:We want a President that we can believe in.(我们要的是一个可以信赖的总统。)

　　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.(我不相信她说的任何一句话。) believe in sth是“相信某事/物有益或有效”，所以有“主张”的意思，如:As far as losing weight is concerned, I believe in taking exercise. (就减肥而言，我主张运动。)

　　6. Can you believe in your eyes?(x)

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

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

　　The dictionary belongs on that shelf. (√)

　　belong to sb是“属于某人”的意思，如:The encyclopedia belongs to me.(这套百科全书属于我。) belong on / in是“(该)归位在某个地方”的意思。
