常见误用提醒
使用 bulldozed:He bulldozed me to do the homework. → He bulldozed me into doing the homework. (错误在于缺少介词 into,bulldoze 表示强迫时需搭配 into doing sth,以正确表达强迫某人做某事的结构。)
使用 bulldozed:The plan was bulldozed quickly. → The plan was bulldozed through quickly. (错误在于遗漏了 through,当表示强行通过某事时,bulldoze 常与 through 连用,以强调推进过程。)
使用 force:He forced me go to the party. → He forced me to go to the party. (force 作动词表示“强迫”时,后接宾语和不定式 to do,不能省略 to。正确结构是 force sb. to do sth.。)
