• Usage Note:

• Note that when you are using the verbbelievewiththat-clau in order to state a negative opinion or belief, you normally makebelievenegative, rather than the verb. For instance, it is more usual to say 'He didn't believe she could do it...' than 'He believed she couldn't do it'. The same applies to other verbs with a similar meaning, such asconsider,suppo, andthink. I don't consider that you kept your promi... I don't suppo he ever saw it... I don't think he saw me.

• 注意，当 believe 和 that 从句连用陈述否定的观点或看法时，通常对 believe 而不是从句中的动词加以否定。例如，通常说 He didn't believe she could do it（他认为她做不到），而很少说 He believed she couldn't do it。同样的句型结构也适用于 consider, suppo 和 think 等意思相近的动词：I don't consider that you kept your promi（我认为你没有遵守诺言），I don't suppo he ever saw it（我想他从没见过它），I don't think he saw me（我认为他没有看到我）。
