Topic 121: in/on the sand? in/on the tree?

英文的介詞有些是有固定規則的,如:

In the playground
In the field
On the grass

不過,不少介詞不能「死記」,要靈活運用:
There are some apples 🍎🍎 🍎 on the tree. (在樹上生長)
There is a bird 🐦 in the tree. (鳥不是「生長」在樹上,所以用 in the tree)

There is a shell 🐚 on the sand. (沙上有一個貝殼)
We are playing in the sand. 🏖(在玩沙、堆沙、挖沙等)

同學要多留意啊!

Topic 46: in/at the cinema

‘In the cinema’ 及 ‘at the cinema’ 在意思上有一點點分別:

例子1: Where are you?
I am in the cinema. (The focus is ‘in the building’ 強調在樓宇內)
I am at the cinema. (can be in the cinema or outside the cinema 可以是戲院內或戲院外,如戲院門口)

例子2: What are you doing?
I am seeing a film at the cinema. (The focus is on what one is doing 強調在做甚麼)
(‘In the cinema’ is commonly taught in the primary level so this answer is also acceptable in Example 2 由於小學通常教學生 ‘in the cinema’ ,所以這一題無論學生回答 ‘in the cinema’ 或 ‘at the cinema’ 也可以)

Topic 45: Prepositions of place: in/on/at

簡單來說,能站立在上面的交通工具用 ‘on’ ,不可的用 ‘in’,至於 ‘at’ 就常用於車站。由此推説, ‘cable car’ 是 ‘on the cable car’ , ‘airport’ 便是 ‘at the airport’ 了。
