& R' s! F! l5 e! W; l- vNote:许多人讲英语犯这样的错误,从语法角度来分析,可能是语法功底欠缺,因为have在这里是实义动词,而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以,这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。

Note:这一组然是个习惯问题,在语法上称为否定前置,这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候,英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候,只要您留心,也会习惯英语的说法的, 8 a$ w7 }; g2 M* ^( {; i/ j; X

7 T0 M3 R1 J3 {( ?1 E% cNote:当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候,英语里面通常用not good at something,英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到:我不是一个好的舞者。 9 w2 z2 M2 i/ k: Q- p' E

/ q' B7 [- k- ^6 k4 H" F" R! i7 O! v' f" V4 i
Note:What time is it now这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子,讲英语的时候没有必要说now,因为您不可能问what time was it 9 u0 j, x* e0 g$ A2 _. Z
$ T/ B5 Q. Z- s* Q, {7 f" W+ \/ H
yesterday, 或者what time is it tommorow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是:请问现在几点了?还有一种说法是:How are we : B# Z7 U4 N( l$ g# x; f

另外一个更大的弊端是,一边不停的学英语,一边不停地说自己的英语很poor,这正像有个人一边给车胎充气,又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。 ) B$ @9 L+ v" i5 c
