Note that when you are using the verbsupposewith a 'that'-clause in order to state a negative opinion or belief, you normally makesupposenegative, rather than the verb in the 'that'-clause. For instance, it is more usual to say'I don't suppose he ever saw it'than 'I suppose he didn't ever see it'. The same pattern applies to other verbs with a similar meaning, such asbelieve,consider, andthink.
注意，使用动词 suppose 加 that 从句表达否定的意见或看法时，通常否定 suppose 而非 that 从句中的动词。例如，通常说 I don't suppose he ever saw it（我认为他从没见过），而不说 I suppose he didn't ever saw it。同样的句型也适用于其他含义相近的动词，如 believe, consider 和 think。
