易错句子She is siping her hot tea slowly.
正确表达She is sipping her hot tea slowly.
sip 是重读闭音节（辅音+元音+辅音），加 -ing 或 -ed 时要双写末尾的辅音字母，所以是 sipping、sipped，不能写成 siping、siped。

易错句子The old man sipped the cup quietly.
正确表达The old man sipped from the cup quietly.
sip 的直接宾语是喝进嘴里的液体（茶、酒、汤等）；如果要说出容器，容器前必须加介词 from（或 out of）。汉语说“从杯子里小口喝”，把杯子直接接在动词后面说成 sipped the cup 就不对了。
