arrive at/in和get to都表示到達(dá),意思基本相同,注意介詞不同.
arrive,不及物動(dòng)詞,arrive的后面要跟in或at.表示到達(dá)大城市或國(guó)家時(shí)要用in,而到達(dá)小城市、鄉(xiāng)村、車站等小地方則用at.如:
We arrived in London last week.我們上周到達(dá)倫敦.
The doctor arrived at the village at last.醫(yī)生終于到達(dá)了那個(gè)村子.
get,與arrive一樣,是不及物動(dòng)詞,所以get常帶著to一起出行.不過,當(dāng)"到達(dá)"的地點(diǎn)是副詞時(shí),get就不帶to了.如:
Ann got to the farm at six o”clock.安六點(diǎn)鐘到達(dá)農(nóng)場(chǎng).
I got here early in the morning.我一大早就到這兒了.
但稍有區(qū)別：
1．如果不指明到達(dá)的地點(diǎn)就不能用get了,而要用arrive.如:
When I arrived,they weren”t there.當(dāng)我到達(dá)時(shí),他們不在那兒.
2． get to強(qiáng)調(diào)達(dá)到的某一個(gè)時(shí)刻
Please write to me as soon as you get to Pairs.請(qǐng)一到巴黎就給我寫信.
