中式英语口语错误讲解

121. 独生子女

[误] My cousin Mary often feels lonely; I supose it\'s because she is a single child.

[正] My cousin Mary often feels lonely; I suppose it\'s because she is an only child.

翻译我的表妹玛丽总觉得很孤单,我想这可能是因为她是个独生子女。

讲解:
only child 是一个固定搭配,而且 only 强调“唯一,只有一个”,而 single 常用于指“单身的”。例如:Mary is single(玛丽还没有成家)。 

更多口语例句:
After counting down for nine years, I was finally an only child.
在倒数计时了九年后,我终于是家里唯一的孩子了。
