中式英語之鑑:如你所知道的，人生常比做航海
260. 如你所知道的，人生常比做航海。
[誤] As you know, life is often compared with a voyage.
[正] As you know, life is often compared to a voyage.
注：同種類的東西相比用 compare with，不同種類的東西相比，則要用 compare to，例句中life 與 voyage 完全不同種類，故用 compare to 方合，再看下例 Famous as she is, she cannot be compared with him as a writer of tragedies.（她雖有名，但作爲一個悲劇作者是不能和他相比的。）
