二、詞義辨析:


after,behind,at the back of

這些詞均有“在……後面”之意。after和behind用來表地點時,前者強調的是順序的先後,而後者側重方向和位置的前後關係。請比較:The student sat after me.那個學生坐在我後面。(我坐在他前面)。The student sat behind me.那學生坐在我背後。after與behind用於指時間時,前者強調時間的先後順序,而後者則着重於表示“落後……”或“遲於……”的概念。試比較:Who ruled after James I?詹姆斯一世之後是誰統治的?You are forty minutes behind schedule.你比規定的時間遲了40分鐘。after多用於表示因時間上的先後而造成順序的前後場合,behind則常用於僅指位置上的前後關係。請比較:Please shut the door after you.請隨手關門。Please shut the door behind you.請關上你身後的門。at the back of這個前置詞短語既可指具體的位置的先後,又可用於指抽象的概念。
