時間介系詞大解密：「throughout」、「ahead of」、「at around」、「out of」... 哪個最精準？ (Advanced Prepositions of Time: “throughout”, “ahead of”, “at around”, “out of”…)
- Okay, yes, that was a tough one, because that could have been during the night, or, but remember we said apart when we talked about during, okay, and we said it's a part of a larger thing. When I talked about throughout, I said it can be to the end and maybe a bit before, a bit extra, a little bit extra. So, in this case, it was through the night, right? It went throughout the night and to the early morning, just a little bit extra. So, throughout is the correct answer here. What about number four? Josh is on his way home now. He should arrive around. Yeah, because this is should, right? We're looking at a modal here and it's like the right thing or kind of, so this modal tells us around, right? You should do something is like, it's the right thing to do. It doesn't mean you're going to do it, but it is the right thing to do. It's approximately, giving an approximation. In this case, when we said around, he should arrive. I think so. That's what he should do. Don't know. Maybe, maybe a little earlier, a little late. Through makes no sense here because you can't go through nine o'clock. You're not a car hitting a wall. Okay? And now finally, number five. The test was very difficult and I couldn't answer all of the questions. I, out of, ahead of time. What do you think? Sorry, time's up. What time now? I ran out of time. Ran out of. Remember? You have no more left. If you were ahead of time, that would be early, but you said it was very difficult and you couldn't answer. So clearly, you ran out of time. Cool? All right. So now we answer these questions and I hope to give you not just the answers to the questions, but the understanding that you have to look at context, showing you that different words can give you the word you want to use. Yeah?
好吧，是的，這是個難題，因為這可能是在晚上，或者，但請記住，當我們談到期間時，我們說過分開，好吧，我們說這是更大的事情的一部分。當我談到 "貫穿始終 "時，我說它可以是到最後，也可以是之前的一點，額外的一點，多一點點。所以，在這種情況下，是貫穿整個晚上，對嗎？從整晚到清晨，只是多了一點點。所以，全程是正確答案。第四個呢？喬希正在回家的路上他應該左右到達。對，因為這是 "應該"，對嗎？我們現在看到的是一個情態動詞，它就像是正確的事情，所以這個情態動詞告訴我們 "左右"，對嗎？你應該做某件事，就好像，這是正確
