常见错误Common mistakes
易错句子He is reputed as a good doctor.正确表达He is reputed to be a good doctor.
错误：repute 在被动结构中通常后接 to be，而非 as。学习者受汉语‘被看作’的影响，误用 as。改正后使用 to be 表示‘被认为’。
易错句子He has a good repute.正确表达He has a good reputation.
错误：repute 作为不可数名词，通常不与冠词 a 连用，且在现代英语中更常使用 reputation 表示‘好名声’。学习者混淆了这两个词的可数性及搭配。
