中式英语口语错误讲解

124.竞争

[误] Falling in love with Helen simultaneously makes these two good friends become competitors in love.

[正] Falling in love with Helen simultaneously makes these two good friends become rivals in love.

翻译：同时爱上海伦使这两个好朋友成了情敌。

讲解：rival in love 是固定搭配。而且，competitor 多用于比赛等特定环境中的竞争对手，而 rival 的使用范围则较为宽泛与笼统。例如：business rival（商业上的竞争对手)；a violinist without rivals（无与伦比的小提琴家）等。

The boxer whaled his rival 3 to 0.
拳击手以3比0击败了对手。
