英语问题 谢谢
The young man and young woman were sitting behind him.He was sitting ______them.
A.before B.above C.ahead of D.in front of
选哪个?C和D的例句都见过,A也见过.
答案:D
before和in front of都是behind的反义词,但在使用中还是有一些区别.如果没有前面的句子:“一个男青年和一个女青年坐在他后面”,那么后面的分句单独成句的话用before或者in front of均可.但这个语境强调的是“他”和这两个青年的前后位置即前后顺序,这种情况只能用in front of.因为before往往指“面前”如:
He stood before her.
他站在她面前.
When Charles was taken before the revolutionaries,there was a surprise.
当查尔斯被带到革命者的面前时,大家都大吃一惊.
The question before us is a very difficult one.
摆在我们面前的是一个非常困难的问题.
He takes his turn.He doesn't push the man in front of him.他遵守秩序,不会推挤前边的人.(按中文习惯可译为“他不会插队)强调的是前后关系.
