during 與 in 的用法區(qū)別
1. 兩者均可表示一段時間,有時可互換:如:
I'll be on holiday in [during] August. 我將在 8 月度假。
He woke up three times in [during] the night. 夜里他醒了 3 次。
2. 兩者比較而言,during 更強調時間的延續(xù),in 只是指一般性的某一時間。因此若表示狀態(tài)或習慣性動作,多用 during ,否則以用 in 為常見。比較:
Many people suffered hardship during the war. 許多人在戰(zhàn)爭期間受苦遭難。
He was injured in the war. 他在戰(zhàn)爭期間受了傷。
3. 在 stay, visit, meal 等表示行為要持續(xù)一定時間的名詞之前,只能用 during 而不能用 in。如:
The phone rang during the meal. 吃飯時電話鈴響了。
I went to see my aunt during my stay in Beijing. 在北京逗留期間,我去看了我的姑媽。
4. 與季節(jié)名詞連用用,in 表泛指,during 表特指。比較:
In summer we often camp in the forest. 夏天我們常在森林里露營。(泛指)
During the summer we camped in the forest. 今年夏天我們在森林里露營。(特指)
