介词(一) 正误辨析1、[误]We got to the top of the mountain in daybreak.[正]We got to the top of the mountain at day break.[析]at用于具体时刻之前,如:sunrise, midday, noon, sunset, midnight, night。
2、[误]Don't sleep at daytime[正]Don't sleep in daytime.[析]in 要用于较长的一段时间之内,如:in the morning / afternoon, 或in the week / month / year. 或in spring / supper /autumn / winter等等。
3、[误]We visited the old man in Sunday afternoon.[正]We visited the old man on Sunday afternoon.[析]in the morning, in the afternoon 如果在这两个短语中加入任何修饰词其前面的介词都要改为on, 如:on a cold morning, on the morning of July 14th4、[误]He became a writter at his twenties[正]He became a writter in his twenties[析]这句话应译为:他在20多岁时就成了作家。
在某人的一段生活时间段中要用介词in来表示,而在具体岁数时用at来表示。
5、[误]He went to New York to find a job in sixteen years old.[正]He went to New York to find a job at sixteen.[析]在具体年岁前用at, 如:at the age of 12,at your age,等等。
6、[误]We went to swim in the river in a very hot day.[正]We went to swim in the river on a very hot day.[析]具体某一天要用介词on, 又如:on New Year's Day7、[误]I'm looking forward to seeing you on Christmas.[正]I'm looking for ward to seeing you at Christmas.[析]在节日的当天用on,而全部节日期间用at,Christmas是圣诞节期间,一般要有两周或更长的时间。
8、[误]I haven't see you during the summer holidays.[正]I haven't seen you since the beginning of the summer holidays.[析]during表示在某一段时间之内,所以一般不与完成时搭配,如:I visited a lot of museums during the holiday. 而for表示一段时间,可以用于完成时,如:I haven't see you for a long time. 而through 用来表示时间时则为"整整,全部的时间"。
如:It rained through the night.而since则是表达主句动作的起始时间,一般要与完成时连用。
9、[误]At entering the classroom, I heard the good news.[正]On entering the classroom, I heard the good news.[析]On 加动名词表示"一……就"。
本句的译文应是:我一进入教室就听见这个好消息了。
又如:on hearing… 一听见,on arrival 一到达就……(on表示动作的名词)10、[误]In the beginning of the book, there are some interesting stories.[正]At the beginning of the book, there are some interesting stories.[析]at the begining与at the end都是指某事物的开始与结束部分,均不指时间范围,而in the beginning 则是指开始一段时间。
in the end=at last是指"最终,终于"之意。
11、[误]Till the end of next week. I will have finished this work.[正]By the end of next week. I will have finished this work.[析]by 引起的时间状语表示了动作的截止点,其意思为"不迟于某一时刻将工作做完",所以主句一般是完成时态。
当然可以有将来时态,如:I'll be there by five o'clock.而till 则表达其一动作一直持续到某一时刻,但句中的动词一定要用持续性动词,而瞬间的截止性动词应用其否定句式,如:I won't finish this work till(until) next weekend.12、[误]He came to London before last weekend.[正]He had come to London before last weekend.[正]He came to London two weeks ago.[析]before 一般要与完成时连用,而ago则与一般过去时连用。
13、[误]I have studied English for three years gince I had come here.[正]I have studied English for three years since I came here.[析]since用来表达主句动作的开始时间,所以其引出的从句中应为过去时,而不能用完成时态14、[误]I can help you repair this bike. You will get it after two hours.[正]I can help you repair this bike. You will get it in two hours.[析]中文经常讲两小时之后来取,两天内会修好,而这个介词在英文中要用in而不要用after。
其原因有二,①after 多用于过去时,如:I arrived in New York. After three days, I found a job in the bank. ② after 加时间是表达一个不确定的时间范围,如:after three days, 即三天之后的哪一天都可以。
所以在许诺若干时间内会完成某事时,一定要用介词in。
15、[误]Three days after he died.[正]After three days he died.[正]Three days later he died.[析]after 与later都可以用来表达一段时间之后,但它们所处的位置不同,after 在时间词前,而later在时间词后。
16、[误]She hid herself after the tree.[正]She hid herself behind the tree.[析]after多用来表达某动作之后,所以有的语法书中称它为动态介词,如:I run after him. After finishing my homework, I went to see a film. 而behind则多用于静态事物之后。
17、[误]There is a beautiful bird on the tree.[正]There is a beautiful bird in the tree.[析]树上长出的果实,树叶要用on, 而其他外来的人、物体均要用in the tree. 18、[误]Shanghai is on the east of China.[正]Shanghai is in the east of China.[析]在表达地理位置时有3个介词:in, on, to。
in表示在某范围之内; on表示与某地区接壤;to则表示不相接。
如:Japan is to the east of China.19、[误]I arrived at New York on July 2nd.[正]I arrived in New York on July 2nd.[析]at用来表达较小的地方,而in用来表达较大的地方。
at常用于at the school gate, at home, at a bus stop, at the station, at the cinema, at a small village。
20、[误]He lived in No. 3 Beijing Road.[正]He lived at No. 3 Beijing Road.[析]在门牌号码前要用at, 并要注意它的惯用法:at the end of the street, at the foot of the mountain, at the top of the page。
21、[误]There is a colour TV set at the corner of the hall.[正]There is a colour TV set in the corner of the hall.[析]在屋内的角落应用in,而墙的外角用at,如:There is a tree at the corner of thestreet.22、[误]This weekend I'll stay in Uncle Wang's.[正]This weekend I'll stay at Uncle Wang's.[析]要注意英文的特殊表达法,如:at a tailor's shop (裁缝店)=at a tailor's, at the doctor's (去看病) at the bookseller's (在书店) at uncle Wang's (在王叔叔家)23、[误]Do you know there is some good news on today's newspaper?[正]Do you know there is some good news in today's newspaper?[析]在报纸上的新闻要用in, 而在具体某一版上,或某一页上则要用on。
