小编:环球雅思 175在雅思学习中,同学们通常会遇到各种各样的问题。环球教育西安学校提醒各位考生再使用副词aboard时,一定要谨慎点哦!下面就为大家分析下:
1. 表示“在国外”、“到国外”等,是副词,不是名词,因此不能与 in, to, at 等介词连用;其前也不用冠词。
如:He has gone abroad with his wife.
他已与他妻子出国了。
His son was living abroad.
他儿子当时住在国外。
不能说:go to (the) abroad / live in (the) abroad
注意:abroad 之前虽不能用 in, to 之类的介词,但是却可以用介词 from
如:He just came back from abroad.
他刚从国外回来。
2. 汉语中的“国内外”,说成英语是 at home and abroad
如:He is famous at home and abroad.
他闻名国内外。
The situation both at home and abroad is in our favour.
国内外形势对我们都有利。
3. 由于是副词,不是形容词,所以不能用于名词前作定语。但是,若语义需要,它可置于名词后作定语。
如:My first journey abroad is something I shall never forget.
我第一次出国旅行的情景是我永远不会忘记的。
She used to be terribly shy, but a year abroad has completely transformed her.
她过去十分腼腆,但在国外呆了一年以后完全变了。
比较下面两句 abroad 与 from abroad 用作后置定语的区别:
Investments abroad set another record last year.
向国外的投资去年又创新经录。
Investments from abroad set another record last year.
来自国外的投资去年又创新经录。
