◆eat v.
1. 汉语中的“请随便吃”,译成英语不能是 Please eat, 可用Please help yourself.

He ate his breakfast quickly. 他快快地吃了早餐。
We have [take, eat] three meals a day. 我们每天吃三餐。

He’s had a good education. 他受过良好的教育。
2. 表示“接受礼物”,英语用 accept 不用 receive, 但是表示“接受教育”,英语通常是用 receive 而不用 accept。如:
A child receives its early education at home. 幼儿在家接受早期教育。
He was fortunate enough to receive a college education. 他有幸受过大学教育。
3. “高等教育”说成英语是 higher education, 而不能是 higheducation。如:
