[误] I want to have my bike mended.? [正] I want to have my bike repaired.? [析] mend意为缝补,如: My mother mended my coat. 而repair是修理。? mind ? [误] Could you mind to close the door?? [正] Could you mind closing the door?? [误] Try to make up your mind studying hard.? [正] Try to make up your mind to study hard.? [析] mind用作动词时,其后加动名词;而用作名词意为下定决心时,其后要加不定式。 ?要注意Do you mind if I smoke?的答语: 如果你不介意,应回答No, go ahead.如果你不想让对方吸烟,则应讲Yes, please don't.? miss ? [误] I found my bag missed.? [正] I found my bag missing.?
