常见误用提醒
使用 petitioning:He is petitioning a new job. → He is applying for a new job. (错误:'petitioning' 通常用于正式或公共请求,如法律或政策变更,不适用于个人求职。正确:求职应用 'applying for'。)
使用 petitioning:She petitioned me to help her with homework. → She asked me to help her with homework. (错误:'petitioning' 在非正式或个人请求中显得过于正式。正确:日常帮助请求应用 'asked'。)
使用 plead:I plead him to help me. → I pleaded with him to help me. (错误在于缺少介词 with;plead 作恳求时,常用 plead with someone to do something 结构,表示向某人恳求。)
