What does he see ____the river?He sees another dog look at him.
问题描述:
What does he see ____the river?He sees another dog look at him.
这里是指在河面上看见狗的倒影,为什么用in the river而不是 on the river呢?这两个词组到底有什么区别?
答
用IN THE RIVER,因为影子是在水里面的,多数中国人喜欢用ON,但这是错的.
欧美人的思维方式与我们中国人不同,他们认为影子不在水面“上”,
对比翻译:
河上的船:A BOAT ON THE RIVER.
河里的倒影:THE SHADOW IN THE RIVER.
