×The news gave a wide coverage about the event.

「coverage」後通常接介系詞「of」來表示報導或涵蓋的對象，而非「about」。
×I need to buy a coverage for my new phone.
✓I need to buy coverage for my new phone. / I need to buy an insurance policy for my new phone.
「coverage」在保險等語境中為不可數名詞，前面不加「a」。若想指一份保單，應使用「an insurance policy」。
×The Wi-Fi coverage here is not enough.
✓The Wi-Fi coverage here is not good. / The Wi-Fi signal here is not strong enough.
「coverage」指的是涵蓋的「範圍」，其好壞用「good/poor/extensive」等形容。若要表達「訊號強度不足」，應使用「signal is not strong enough」。
×The media's coverages of the election were biased.
✓The media's coverage of the election was biased.
「coverage」在此為不可數名詞，沒有複數形「coverages」。動詞應配合單數主詞使用。
×This insurance has a full coverage.
✓This insurance provides full coverage.
表達「提供保障」更自然的動詞是「provide/offer/ensure coverage」。使用「has」雖然可被理解，但較不地道。
