129.误把......当成......

[误] We all took the president as an ordinary employee at first.

[正] We all took the president for an ordinary employee at first.

翻译：我们一开始都把总裁当成了普通员工。

讲解：“take...for...”是“误把......当成......”的意思，而“take...as...”则表示“把......当......看待”，如：He took what she said as a compliment（他把她的话看作是恭维）。

But it is true that they so seldom smile that when they do we do not recognize their face, so distorted is it from the fixed mask we take for granted.
