常见误用提醒
使用 unworked：The wood is unworked, so it's very smooth. → The wood is unworked, so it's very rough. (错误在于逻辑矛盾：unworked 表示未加工，通常意味着粗糙或不光滑，而不是光滑。应改为 'rough' 以准确描述状态。)
使用 unworked：He unworked the metal yesterday. → He left the metal unworked yesterday. (错误在于将 unworked 误用作动词；它是一个形容词，不能直接作谓语动词。应使用 'left unworked' 或类似结构来表示状态。)
使用 unfinished：The work is not finished yet, it's unfinish. → The work is not finished yet, it's unfinished. (错误使用了动词形式“unfinish”，正确应为形容词“unfinished”，表示未完成的状态。)
