_______each term,teachers give out new books. A.In the beginning B.In the beginning of C.At the beginning D.At the beginning of 顺便问下in the beginning和at the beginning的区别。谢谢!
解题思路: at the beginning of
解题过程:
答案是D,分析如下:
at the beginning与in the beginning在用法上有一些区别。
in the beginning通常单独用作时间状语或定语,而较少跟of短语连用,其意义为:“起初”、“在开始的时候”,暗含着后来有变化的意思。如:
1. In the beginning we thought we'd never get it all arranged. 在开始的时候,我们以为不会把它全安排好。
2. In the beginning I felt very lonesome in London. 起初,我在伦敦觉得非常孤独。
at the beginning常常跟of短语连用(如of the week, of the year, of the book等),如果后面没有跟of短语,则大都可以从上下文看出来。如:
1. At the beginning of this century a great many Europeans went to live in the USA. 本世纪初许多欧洲人去美国居住。
2. Start at the beginning and read until you get to the bottom of Page Five. 从第5页开头开始读,一直读到第5页末尾。
注意:at the beginning 在单独使用时,有时与in the beginning同义。如:
1. He disliked it at / in the beginning. 起初,他并不喜欢它。
2. At / In the beginning he wasn't interested in it. 开始,他并不感兴趣。
最终答案:略
