2)翻译下面的句子:

(参考翻译:He turned down the invitation on the grounds that his English was not good enough. 或者 On the grounds of inadequate English, he declined the invitation. )

3)结合自己的生活、学习、工作、兴趣等,想象在什么语境下会用到这个表达。先简要描述这个场景,再造句。

例子: On the grounds of not finding, I took  others efforts.

场景 : 学习中,遇到不懂的地方不自己去搜索答案而是直接拿去别人的成果。
