in the street就on the street意思上有什么不同?

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

in是英国用法，on是美国用法。还有用at的时候

看看这道题你就明白了：

My uncle lives ____ 105 Beijing Street.（04年北京样卷）

A. on B. at C. to D. of

[答案] B

[解析] 本题考查介词哀叹与地点名词搭配用法。at与地点名词搭配，常表示较小的地点和场合，街道门牌前用at。无门牌号前street用in或on，如：in Baker Street/ in the High Street（英国用法）；on Larrie Street/ on Upper Beamish Street （美国用法）。

Answer 2

Prepositions can be confusing to learners of language. It seems the usage is not always consistant, and can be used differently in different places.

Ex.

People in Northeastern U.S. say "standing ON line" when waiting, but people in Southwestern U.S. say "standing IN line"

"In" and "On" can sometimes be used interchangeably when the object of the preposition could be considered a surface ("on") OR an area ("in")

A face is a surface, but it's also a general area where someone could be slapped. Therefore you could use either "slapped on the face" or "slapped in the face"

These websites have really good information about prepositions:

The best way to learn the differences is to read a lot and notice how native speakers use them...

(ref: http://experts.about.com/q/General-Writing-Grammar-680/confused-1.htm )

IN the street = refers to an area (IN=area)
ON the street = refers to a surface (ON=surface)

Hope this helps!
