单词 | amid ( st )(among) |
释义 | amid ( st ): among — 68 作“在其中”讲,这两个介词是同义,但区别在于:前者总是引导集体名词和抽象名词,而后者的宾语则多半是复数普通名词和集体名词或单数群体名词(参见词目 69 和 70 )。 例如: Our seagoing ship has triumphantly returned to Shanghai amidst cheer and shouts of slogans. 我国的远洋轮船在欢呼和口号声中胜利返航到了上海。(引导的是抽象名词) He has persevered amid all these difficulties. 他在困难重重的情况下已坚持下来了。(引导的是抽象名词) No one has fallen among enemies. 没有一人投敌。( enemies 是个复数普通名词) Are the disputes among mankind inevitable? 难道人类之间的纠纷是不可避免的吗?( mankind 是个群体名词) The blackguards were always among the crowd. 坏人经常混在人群之中。( crowd 是个集合名词) When the two step-sisters heard that they two were to appear among the number, they were delighted. 当两个异母姐姐听说她们的名字也在其中.就感到高兴。( number 是个含有“数量”概念的普通名词) |
