曼哈顿第十一章关于V-A-N的
Although most consumers are suspicious of such offers, Colin is desirous of purchasing
the two-for-one vacation package.
answer：4. Although most consumers are suspicious of such offers, Colin wants to purchase the two-forone
vacation package.
The verb wants is preferable to is desirous o f according to V-A-N pattern 3. Notice, however, that you
should NOT change are suspicious o f to the verb suspect, because consumers suspect such offers is unidiomatic.
{Suspect vs. are suspicious o f is, like lack vs. are lacking in, one of the rare exceptions to V-A-N
pattern 3.)
想问问Suspect 和 are suspicious of 具体有什么区别 为什么不能替换，还有lack 和 be lacking in
万分感谢

没啥区别，除了词性外，只是有效性的的问题

unidiomatic.
{Suspect vs. are suspicious o f is, like lack vs. are lacking in, one of the rare exceptions to V-A-N
pattern 3.)

说的很清楚，习惯用法问题，和传统的VAN冲突，所以要记住are suspicious of 和are lacking in是例外的比直接用动词好的用法
