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。
