中式英语之鉴:被罚了

padding-bottom: 100%;">

218. 韦尼格先生因酒后驾车被罚了100美元。

[误] Mr. Vinegar was punished $100 for drunken driving.

[正] Mr. Vinegar was fined $100 for drunken driving.

注：punish 后面不直接加具体惩罚，如：He was punished by long terms of imprisonment（他被处以长期监
禁）或 He was unished to pay $100 for drunk driving。专门用来表示罚款的动词是 fine，其后可直接加被罚金额。
