in turn 和 in turns 有什么区别?
He stayed with his mother till nearly midnight,comforting her and being conforted _____.
请问这里应该填in turn 还是 in turns呢?
答
in turn 依次,轮流地
e.g
They answered the teacher's questions in turn.
他们依次回答了老师的问题.
in turns 依次,轮流
Please enter the room in turns.
请依次进房间.
区别不是很大
而in turn的中文意思也是“轮流”,“轮班”.但它与by turns的区别在于in turn是按照事先安排好的顺序有次序地一个接一个地“轮流”,而且不强调 在某一期间内的反复性.
