　　［误］ In my way to the station， I bought a newspaper to kill time.

 

　　［正］ On my way to the station， I bought a newspaper to kill time.

 

　　［析］译文为：在去车站的路上我买了份报纸，为的是消磨时光“在……的路上”应用on one‘s way…。而 in the way 有挡道之意，如：Please move the chair it is in the way.

 

　　［误］ Look， the door is open， Maybe someone broke into.

 

　　［正］ Look， the door is open， Maybe someone broke in.
