[译] 那个男孩裤子上有一个破洞。
[误] The boy has a break in his trousers.

[正] The boy has a tear in his trousers.
[注] 名词 break（=broken place）可作“破裂（处）”解，但不用于衣服上。如：The X ray showed a break in her arm. X 光片显示她手臂有一处断裂（骨折）。/Some germs enter the human body through a break in the skin. 有些细菌通过皮肤破损处侵入人体。tear 可指衣服、纸等“撕破处”，如：The tear in your coat should be repaired in time. 你外表上的破洞要及时补一下。
