易错句子I am very sleeping.
正确表达I am very sleepy.
sleeping 作形容词表示“睡着的、正在睡觉的”,不能用 very 修饰,也不表示“困倦的”。要表达“我很困”,应用 sleepy;因此把 sleeping 改成 sleepy。

易错句子I fell sleeping.
正确表达I fell asleep.
fall 后接形容词 asleep 构成固定搭配,表示“入睡、睡着”;sleeping 虽然也是形容词,但不能跟在 fall 后表示进入睡眠状态。因此要把 sleeping 改成 asleep。

正确表达I need sleep.
need 表示“需要”时后面可接名词作宾语;sleep 可作不可数名词,意为“睡眠”。sleeping 是形容词,不能单独作 need 的宾语,所以应改为 sleep(也可说 I need to sleep)。
