"he took driving lessons"
"they decided to make an example of him"
"the moral of the story is to love thy neighbor"
"he did the lesson for today"
误 listen to sb's lesson
正 attend a lesson given by sb
正 take lessons from〔of,with〕 sb
析 “听某人的课”可以说attend a lesson given by sb 或take lessons from〔of,with〕 sb,但不能说listen to sb's lesson。
老师正在上音乐课。误 The teacher is giving a lesson of music.
正 The teacher is giving a lesson in music.
析 表示“上…的课”,应该说give a lesson in ...,其中介词不能换为of。注意用介词on也可指“…的课”,但所指的范围更小,如a French lesson on irregular verbs(一堂讲授不规则动词的法语课)。
