中式英語之鑑:把落下的課補上

ing-bottom: 100.47%;">

107. 因爲瑪吉請了三天病假，所以她必須把落下的課補上。

[誤] Since Maggie asked for a sick leave of three days,she should make up for her lost lessons.

[正] Since Maggie asked for a sick leave of three days,she should make up her lost lessons.

注：同樣表示“彌補，補償，補足”，make up 後面一般接具體的名詞，如：make up a missed lesson（補課）
，a make-up examination（補考）等；而 make up for 後面的名詞通常比較抽象，如：make up for the lost time（彌補時間上的損失），make up for one's defects（補其所短）等。
