初中英语常见介词的错误与纠正误 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 Dont sleep at daytime 正 Dont 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。 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 writer at his twenties 正 He became a writer 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：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 Years Day 误 Im looking forward to seeing you on Christmas. 正 Im 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 havent see you during the summer holidays. 正 I havent 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 havent 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。 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 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 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：Ill be there by five oclock.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 wont finish this work till（until） next weekend. 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。 误 I have studied English for three years since 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 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，after 多用于过去时，如：I arrived in New York. After three days， I found a job in the bank. 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. 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。 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。 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. 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. 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. 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. 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 the street. 误 This weekend Ill stay in Uncle Wangs. 正 This weekend Ill stay at Uncle Wangs. 析 要注意英文的特殊表达法，如：at a tailors shop （裁缝店）at a tailors， at the doctors （去看病） at the booksellers （在书店） at uncle Wangs （在王叔叔家） 误 Do you know there is some good news on todays newspaper？ 正 Do you know there is some good news in todays 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. 误 The school will begin on September 1st. 正 School will begin on September 1st. 析这里的school应看作不可数名词泛指学校的课程，即开学之意。要注意，有些活动场所当表达正在从事该种活动时不要加冠词，如：at table （吃饭）， When I came to Toms home， they were at table. 还有： at desk （学习），at work （工作） at school （上学）， in hospital （住医院） at church 作礼拜如加上定冠词则另有他意，如：at the school 即在学校工作或办事，in the hospital 即在医院工作或去看望病人。 误 In my way to the station， I bought a newspaper to kill time. 正 On my way to the station， I bought a newspaper to kill time. 析译文为：在去车站的路上我买了份报纸，为的是消磨时光“在的路上”应用on ones way。而 in the way 有挡道之意，如：Please move the chair it is in the way. 误 Look， the door is open， Maybe someone broke into. 正 Look， the door is open， Maybe someone broke in. 正 Look， the door is open， Maybe someone broke into the office. 析 in是表达一个静止状态，在与break连用时其后不加介词宾语，而into则是动态介词，与break连用时要加介词宾语。 误 Ill leave Beijing to Shanghai tomorrow. 正 Ill leave Beijing for Shanghai. 正 Ill leave for Shanghai. 析 leave for 是离开某地去某处的固定搭配，不可将for改为别的介词。这样的搭配还有：start for 动身前往某处，set out for， sail for. 误 Im sorry. I have to get out the bus at next stop. 正 Im sorry. I have to get out of the bus at next stop. 析 get in， 与 get out是两个相反的词组。get in 为上车，而get out为下车，但语法家认为这里的in与out为副词，所以其后不能接名词，我们可以讲Wed better get in. 或Wed better get out. 还有一组词组有关上下车：get onoff（a train， a ship， a struck） get intoout of （a car， taxi） 误 Be careful The temperature of the water is ninety degrees over zero. 正 Be careful. The temperature of the water is ninety degrees above zero. 析 over 与 above 在作为比某物高的意思时有时可以互换。但在垂直方向上的高矮时，即正上方时则要用above.而泛指上方时用over. 误 There is an old stone bridge above the river. 正 There is an old stone bridge over the river. 析 over还有一意为“跨越，横跨”。 误 The Dead Sea is under the sea level. 正 The Dead Sea is below the sea level. 析在垂直下方要用below.也就是讲above与below互为反意词，over与under也是反意词。 误 There is a big tree in the front of the house. 正 There is a big tree in front of the house. 析 in front of 是在物体外部的前面，而in the front of 是在物体内部的前面，如：The driver sits in the front of the bus. 误 It took them two days to walk across the forest. 正 It took them two days to walk through the forest. 析 across 作为介词有两个主要意思： 横过，如：I want to walk across the street. 对面，如：There is a post office across the street，而through 多用于三维空间中的穿越。across则多用于平面上的横过。如：The little girl ran across the room to meet her mother. 误 The sun sets toward the west. 正 The sun sets in the west. 析 towards也可用作toward，它主要表达朝向某方向运动，但不一定到达，如：He ran toward（s） the mountain.而在表示方位east， west， north， south 时，其前面要用in.要注意的是这4个词可以用作副词，如：I went south. 也可用作名词，如：I went to the south.也可用作形容词，如：I went to the south part of China. 误 Do you have no other clothes except those？ 正 Do you have no other clothes besides those？ 析 beside 是“在旁边”，如：The students stood beside their teachers.而besides是“除之外，不仅而且，除了以外还有”，如：I studied English besides French， when I was in college. 而except 则是从同一类物体中去掉某一部分，如：I come here every day except Sunday. 而except for 是指去掉不同种类的事物，如：The room is clean except for two chairs. 而except that则要加从句。 误 Can I write the exam paper with ink？ 正 Can I write the exam paper with a pen？ 正 Can I write the exam paper in ink？ 析 with后要加拿得起来放得下的工具，而墨水、颜料等原料则要用in. 误 Im earlier today.
