fazed

易错句子She was fazed of the sudden change in plans.

正确表达She was fazed by the sudden change in plans.

fazed 表示“被……弄得不安”时，后面接施动者要用介词 by，不能用 of。of 是受汉语“害怕……的”表达影响而误加的，英语中形容词 fazed 的固定搭配是 be fazed by sth。

易错句子He was not phased by the criticism.

正确表达He was not fazed by the criticism.

phase 意为“分阶段进行”，不能表示“使不安”；表示“不安的、受影响的”要用形容词 fazed。英语中 faze 与 phase 同音，汉语母语者容易按读音写错，此处需写成 fazed。
