　　12. 如果你能告诉我一些情况，我将十分感激。
　　误：I’d appreciate very much if you would tell me something about it.
　　正：I’d appreciate it very much if you would tell me something about it.
　　析：appreciate(感激)是及物动词，其后不能没有宾语。为方便记忆，可将 I would appreciate it if... 视为一个固定句型。
　　13. 他安排我去机场迎接客人。
　　误：He arranged me to meet the guests at the airport.
　　正：He arranged for me to meet the guests at the airport.
　　析：arrange(安排)后可接不定式作宾语，但习惯上却不接不定式的复合结构作宾语，遇此情况可在 arrange 后加介词 for(如上面的正句)或换成从句。如：He arranged that I (should) meet the guests at the airport.
　　14. 小孩喜欢像糖果和玩具之类的东西。
　　误：Children like such things like candy and toys.
　　正：Children like such things as candy and toys.
　　析：such... as 是固定搭配，不要受汉语影响将 as 换成 like 之类的词。
　　15. 昨天早上朋友来看我时，我还在睡大觉。
　　误：I was very asleep when my friend came to see me yesterday morning.
　　正：I was fast ［sound］ asleep when my friend came to see me yesterday morning.
　　析：要表示“睡得很熟”，asleep 习惯上不能用 very 修饰，而用 fast 或 sound 来修饰。
　　16. 他不为金钱和美女所动。
　　误：He had no attraction for money and women.
　　正：Money and women had no attraction for him.
　　析：A has［holds］ attraction for B这一结构表示的是“对B来说，A具有吸引力”，也就是说“A对B有吸引力或诱惑力”，即B喜欢A，而不是其相反。又如：Television has little attraction for me. 电视对我没什么吸引力。
　　17. 她所谓生病只不过是避免见他的花招而已。
　　误：Her illness is merely a device to avoid to see him.
　　正：Her illness is merely a device to avoid seeing him.
　　析：avoid后接动词时要用动名词，不能用不定式。又如：It was impossible to avoid being affected. 要想不受影响是不可能的。
　　18. 他们在机场检查了所有行李。
　　误：They examined all baggages at the airport.
　　正：They examined all baggage at the airport.
　　析：baggage 主要用于美国英语，英国英语中通常用 luggage。两者都是“行李”的统称，不具体指一件行李，因此不可数，没有复数形式，也不与不定冠词或数词连用。
　　19. 他知道她哭是因为他说的话。
　　误：He knew she was crying because what he had said.
　　正：He knew she was crying because of what he had said.
　　析：一般说来，because 后接从句， because of 后接名词或代词。但是由于 what he had said 实质上相当于名词(the thing that he had said)，所以其前应用 because of。顺便补充一句，一般说的 because 后接从句，通常是指没有引导词的句子，因为 because 已是从属连词，本身已是引导原因状语从句的引导词。
　　20. 为了减肥，除正餐之外最好不要吃零食。
　　误：In order to lose weight， you’d not eat anything among meals.
　　正：In order to lose weight， you’d not eat anything between meals.
　　析：原则上说，between 用于两者，among 用于三者或三者以上。但若表示三者当中每两者之间的关系时，要用 between，而不用among。
　　21. 听到这个好消息，孩子们都大笑起来。
　　误：Hearing the good news， the children burst into laughing.
　　正：Hearing the good news， the children burst into laughter.
　　正：Hearing the good news， the children burst out laughing.
　　析：burst into 和 burst out 都可表示“突然进入某种状态或发生某种情况”，但前者通常后接名词，后者通常后接动名词。
