单词 in time(on time)
释义 time , in ~: on ~— 1059
1a. in time 这个短语作“及时”或“准时”讲,不存在时间的迟早问题,它的强势形式是 in the nick of time ; on time 这个短语则作“按时”讲,相当于 up to time 的意思,它的反义形式是 late ( for )。其次,两者在句中的词序也不一样: in time 多半放在作解释的短语或不定式短语之前,而后者则通常放在句末。
例如:
I was just in time for the train this morning. 今天早晨我恰好赶上火车。
Miss Green was in time to catch the train this morning. 格林小姐今天早晨准时赶上火车。
The train is always on time. 火车可按时啦。
比较:
You are still in time, though you have come five minutes behind time. 虽则你迟到了五分钟,可还算准时。(不存在迟早问题)
You were very late for school this morning. You must get to school on time. 今天早晨你上学迟到了。你得按时到校才好。(存在迟早问题)
This train will get us there in time. 这班火车将准时到达。(仿佛说,不致于耽误)
The train arrived on time. 火车按时到达。(就是说,没有误点)
1b. in time 又可作“到了一定时候之后”和“合拍”讲,它既可放在句首又可放在句末(注:作“合拍”讲,它的反义短语是 out of time ;作“及时”或“准时”讲,却没有 out of time 这个反义短语),而 on time 则没有其它解释。
例如:
You will learn to drive a tractor in time. 你慢慢就能学会驾驶拖拉机了。
In time the teacher became very fond of you. 到后来,老师变得喜欢你了。
比较:
The school children sang quite in time with the music.
这些小学生唱起歌来同音乐挺合拍。
The school children sang a bit out of time. 这些小学生唱得不够合拍。
