易错句子The empty can crushed by the truck.
正确表达The empty can was crushed by the truck.
主语 the empty can 是被压的一方，英语被动语态必须用 be + 过去分词，即 was crushed。汉语“罐子被卡车压扁了”只有一个“被”字，学习者常把“被”直接对应成 by，结果漏掉 be 动词，句子就没有谓语了。

易错句子I crushed my finger by the door.
正确表达I crushed my finger in the door.
表示“手指被门夹住/夹伤”时，门是夹住处所的来源，要用介词 in（in the door）；by 引出的是动作的发出者或手段，crushed by the door 会理解成“被门压碎”，与想说的“被门缝夹到”意思不同。

易错句子This machine crush the cans into flat pieces.
正确表达This machine crushes the cans into flat pieces.
主语 this machine 是第三人称单数，一般现在时的动词要加 -s，写成 crushes。汉语动词不随人称和数变化，学习者容易漏掉第三人称单数的 -s。

squash 多指把柔软或易变形的东西压平、挤扁，常含“变扁”而不一定碎裂；crush 强调用重压使物体变形、压碎，对象可以是较硬的东西。两者在“压扁软物”时都可能用，但 crush 的破坏感更强。
smash 强调猛烈撞击使物体破碎，常伴随响声或冲击；crush 强调两个硬面之间持续挤压造成变形或碎裂，不一定是撞击。若只是用锤子猛击打碎，用 smash 更自然；用重物慢慢压碎则用 crush。
squeeze 指从两侧用力挤压，常为了挤出液体、腾出空间或握紧，不一定会弄坏物体；crush 的力度更大，通常导致变形、压碎或彻底损坏。挤柠檬汁用 squeeze，把罐子压扁用 crush 更准确。
