C. 中文學習者容易犯的錯誤
❌ 錯誤： "After eat full lunch, I want to sleep."
✅ 正確： "After eating a full lunch, I want to sleep." / "After I eat lunch, I get sleepy."
說明： 介詞後要用動名詞 "eating"，不是動詞原形
❌ 錯誤： "Eat full rice make me sleepy."
✅ 正確： "Eating a full meal makes me sleepy."
說明： 主語要用動名詞，且 "rice" 不能代表所有食物
❌ 錯誤： "I full stomach then sleepy."
✅ 正確： "When I'm full, I get sleepy." / "A full stomach makes me sleepy."
說明： 語法結構要完整，不能省略動詞
