() 正误辨析
[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
[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, in the week / month / year. in spring / supper /autumn / winter等等。
[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 14th
[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。
[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:背着步回明朝at the age of 12 at your age 等等。
[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 Day
[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。
[误] I haven't see you during the summer holidays.
出勤情况[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. for表示一段时间,可以用于完成时,如:I haven't see you for a long time. through 用来表示时间时则为"整整,全部的时间"。如:It rained through the night.since则是表达主句动作的起始时间,一般要与完成时连用。
[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)
[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 beginingat 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 endat last是指"最终,终于"之意。
[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.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.
[误] He came to London before last weekend.
