龙老师:
1. dangerous 指本身“危险的”“有危险性的”“引起危险的”——指本身对其他人或事物造成的危险。如:
Tigers can be dangerous. 老虎是危险的。
Broken glass is dangerous. 碎玻璃很危险。
This lake is dangerous for swimmers. 在这个湖里游泳危险。
Driving on icy roads can be very dangerous. 在结冰的道路上开车会很危险。
The police believe him to be dangerous. 警方认为他是个危险人物。
2. 若不是指本身具有危险性或会引起危险,而是指自己处于危险之中,用in danger。如:
His life is in danger. 他的生命有危险。
Try to keep cool when you’re in danger. 遇到危险时要保持冷静。
He warned me (that) I was in danger. 他警告说我处境危险。
Driving too fast puts people in danger. 开车太快危险。

The doctors pronounced that he was no longer in danger. 医生宣称他已脱离危险。
You will be in danger if you walk on a railway line. 如果你在铁路轨道上行走那是很危险的。
比较:
The man is dangerous. 这人很危险。(即对他人造成危险)
The man is in danger. 这人有危险。(即自己处于危险中)
注:若要表示“有……的危险”(处于……的危险之中),英语用 in danger of…。如:
He is in danger of losing his life. 他有生命危险。
The bridge is in danger of collapse. 桥有倒塌的危险。
You’re in danger of catching cold. 你有着凉的危险。
