常见误用提醒
使用 plead:I plead him to help me. → I pleaded with him to help me. (错误在于缺少介词 with;plead 作恳求时,常用 plead with someone to do something 结构,表示向某人恳求。)
使用 plead:She plead guilty for the crime. → She pleaded guilty to the crime. (错误在于介词使用不当;plead guilty 后应接 to 表示对某事认罪,而不是 for,for 通常用于恳求原因。)
使用 appeal:He appealed the judge for mercy. → He appealed to the judge for mercy. (错误:appeal 作为动词表示呼吁时,应接介词 to 引出对象,不能直接接名词。正确用法是 appeal to someone for something。)
