Common mistakes
The charity dole food to the needy.The charity doles out food to the needy.
遗漏了'out':动词'dole'单独使用时表示发放救济物或少量施舍,但在现代英语中,表示'少量发放'时必须使用短语动词'dole out','dole'单独作及物动词已显古旧或不标准。
He doled out money for the refugees.He doled out money to the refugees.
介词使用错误:在'dole out'结构中,接受者应用介词'to'表示'给与',而不是'for'表示'为了'。'dole out something to someone'是正确搭配。
