Usage Note :

Note that when you are using the verb think with a 'that'-clause in order to state a negative opinion or belief, you normally make think negative, rather than the verb in the 'that'-clause. For instance, it is more usual to say 'I don't think he saw me' than 'I think he didn't see me'. The same pattern applies to other verbs with a similar meaning, such as believe, consider, and suppose.

注意，当动词 think 和 that 从句连用表示否定的观点或看法时，通常是对 think 进行否定，而不是否定 that 从句中的动词。例如，通常说 I don't think he saw me (我认为他没看见我)，而很少说 I think he didn't see me。同样的句型也适用于其他意义类似的动词，如 believe, consider, suppose 等。
