【问】 《英语修辞及惯用法常见错误分析》(杨霞华教授编著，P.62)认为下列句子是错误的：

This lecture gave us a deep impression.而必须更改为made a deep impression on或left adeep impression on。请问give sb. a deep impression的用法是错误的吗?

【答】 除了make (leave，produce) an impression on sb.等用法外，英语也采用give sb.an im-pression这一表达方式。例如：

1. I didn’t want to give you any false impression. (Snow)

我不想给你留下错误的印象。

2. What he saw and heard on his trip gave him a very deep impression.

他此次旅行中的所见所闻，给他留下了深刻的印象。

3. Give sb. a good impression

给某人一个好印象(《英语搭配大词典》，P.933)
