误：The film has begun for 10 minutes.
正：The film has been on for 10 minutes.
析：begin 是终止性动词, 因此不能与一段时间连用。
◆他们下午两点上班。
误：They worked at 2 pm.
正：They began to work at 2 pm.
析：因 work(工作)是持续性动词，而 at 2 pm (下午两点)是一点 时间，两者习惯上不搭配在一起。但是若持续性动作用于进行时态，则可以不用 begin。如：They were working at 2 pm. (他们下午两点在工作)。
◆展览会将于星期一开始。
误：The exhibition will begin from Monday.
正：The exhibition will begin on Monday.
析：在通常情况下，不能按汉语习惯在 begin 后接用介词 from。
◆他还是孩子时就开始喜欢诗歌。
误：He began liking poetry when he was a boy.
正：He began to like poetry when he was a boy.
析：在通常情况下，begin(开始)后接不定式或动名词均可以, 且含义上没有什么差别。但是若 begin 本身为 -ing形式或后接表 示心理活动的动词等，其后通常只接不定式，不接动名词。
