during the night與in the night的區(qū)別
有朋友在本站“答疑中心”詢問(wèn) during the night 與 in the night 的用法區(qū)別。問(wèn)題見(jiàn): www.hz123456.com/guestbook/Guest_Reply.asp?TopicID=1772 該問(wèn)題由本站特約作者及專家顧問(wèn)陳根花老師回答如下: ■in the night 和 during the night的基本用法說(shuō)明 in the night 和 during the night 均表示“夜間”“夜里”,指在夜間或夜里某個(gè)時(shí)間發(fā)生的某件事情,兩者常可換用。如: Burglars got into the office in the night (during the night). 竊賊夜里闖入了辦公室。 The car windscreen frosted over in the night (during the night). 汽車的擋風(fēng)玻璃在夜間結(jié)了霜。 Stephen checked on her several times in the night (during the night). 斯蒂芬夜里起來(lái)看了她好幾遍。 The tyres on his car had been let down in the night (during the night). 晚上有人把他的汽車輪胎放了氣。 The rain on the roads had changed to ice in the night (during the night). 路上積的雨水在夜間結(jié)成了冰。 I woke up in the night (during the night) in a cold sweat worrying about the exam. 半夜里我驚醒過(guò)來(lái),為考試的事急得直冒冷汗。 《柯林斯高級(jí)英語(yǔ)用法詞典》對(duì)于兩者的區(qū)別是這樣說(shuō)的:It is more common to use “in” in sentences like these. If you use “during”, you are usually emphasizing that you are not sure of the exact time when something happened.(在類似的句子里,in 用得普遍一些。如果用 during,一般是強(qiáng)調(diào)對(duì)事情發(fā)生的準(zhǔn)確時(shí)間沒(méi)有把握。) ■關(guān)于 in the night 和 during the night 表示時(shí)間點(diǎn)與時(shí)間段 in the night 和 during the night 主要表示“時(shí)間點(diǎn)”(見(jiàn)上面的例子),很少表示“時(shí)間段”。但盡管很少表示“時(shí)間段”,仍然可找到這樣的例子。如: They work during the night and sleep by day. 他們夜間工作,白天睡覺(jué)。——摘自《劍橋高級(jí)英語(yǔ)詞典》 People sleep in the night and work in the day. 人們?cè)谝估锼X(jué),在白天工作。——摘自《新時(shí)代英語(yǔ)慣用法詞典》 ■有關(guān)in the night 和 during the night的一點(diǎn)用法補(bǔ)充 1. in the night 和 during the night均主要用于特指,即特指某個(gè)晚上的“夜里”——可能是“昨天夜里”,也可能是“過(guò)去某一天的夜里”,有時(shí)甚至可能是“將來(lái)某一天的夜里”。如: I’m exhausted. The baby woke up three times in the night. 我累壞了。孩子昨天夜里醒了三次。——摘自《牛津高階英漢雙解詞典》 注:根據(jù) I’m exhausted 用的一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)可知,后面的 in the night 是指昨天夜里。 It rained all Monday but stopped raining during the night. 星期一整天都在下雨,但夜里雨停了。——摘自《牛津?qū)嵱糜⒄Z(yǔ)語(yǔ)法》 注:during the night 指過(guò)去特定某一天(即星期一)的夜里。 There had been reports that a motorized division had crossed the border during the night. 有消息說(shuō),機(jī)動(dòng)師頭天夜里已越過(guò)邊界線。——摘自《柯林斯高級(jí)英語(yǔ)用法詞典》 注:during the night 指過(guò)去特定某一天的夜里。 During the night you’ll no doubt be enjoying the carnival atmosphere. 在晚上你毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)會(huì)感受到狂歡節(jié)的氣氛。——摘自《柯林斯高級(jí)英語(yǔ)用法詞典》 注:during the night 指將來(lái)某一天的(也可能就是今天的)夜里。 2. 但有時(shí)也可見(jiàn)到 in the night 和 during the night 用于非特指的情況(比較少見(jiàn))。如: I always slept by the phone in case he rang during the night. 我總是睡在電話機(jī)旁邊,惟恐他夜間打電話來(lái)。——摘自《牛津?qū)嵱糜⒄Z(yǔ)語(yǔ)法》 An earthquake comes like a thief in the night, without warning. 地震就像夜間的小偷,不打招呼就來(lái)了。——摘自《新概念英語(yǔ)》(第四冊(cè)) ■關(guān)于in night 英語(yǔ)可以說(shuō) at night, by night, before night 等,但習(xí)慣上不說(shuō) in night。如: Tigers are active mainly at night. 老虎主要在夜間活動(dòng)。 He works in an office by day and drives a taxi by night. 他白天在辦公室工作,晚上開(kāi)計(jì)程車。 Dusk is the time before night when it is not yet dark. 黃昏就是指夜幕來(lái)臨之前天還沒(méi)黑的那段時(shí)間。 引用地址: |
