adv. (副词)
early, early on
  • early on原为英式英语,现在美式英语也通用,在非正式文体中须去掉on。其意思是“初时,在较早的阶段,早些时候”。有些语法学家认为这和later on一样属于用词不够经济的例子,但在实际英语中, early on经常有人用。例如:
  • Mary came to see you earlier on, but you weren't at home then.玛丽早些时候来看望过你,但你当时不在家。
    • early, ago
  • 两者都可表达“某时之前若干时间”。其区别在于:如果是从现在起向过去推算,用表示时间度量的短语加ago,并与动词的一般过去时连用; 如果表示从过去时刻向更深远的过去推算,则用earlier,并常与动词的过去完成时连用。例如:
  • Stirring scene from the film still sticks in my mind, though I saw it several years ago.虽然这部影片我是几年前看的,但那激动人心的场面仍然印在我的脑海里。
  • Four days earlier his foot had been bitten by a poisonous snake.4天前他的脚被毒蛇咬了一下。
    • early, quick, shortly, soon
  • 这组词的共同意思是“不久”“即刻”“快”。其区别在于:early常指时间比原来或通常早些; quick含有匆忙、仓促之意; soon指在某一特定时间过现在之后不久,多用于将来时或过去时,通常放在句末或主要动词之前; shortly与soon同义,但比soon更郑重,常用于新闻报道等。例如:
  • You have to think quick with the mind and act quick with the body.你必须脑子转得快,行动也得快。
  • I came early, and had to wait for others, but soon after five o'clock they appeared.我来得早,得等其他人,可是刚过5点他们就都来了。
  • Shortly after that, the police arrived.那事情发生不久警察就到了。
    • adj. (形容词)
    下面两个句子的意思相同:
  • The train will arrive in the early morning.
  • The train will arrive early in the morning.
  • 火车一清早就到。
  • 第一句中的early是形容词,修饰morning; 第二句中的early是副词,修饰in the morning。
    • 用作副词 (adv.)
    early and late
      从早到晚 at all times
    early or late
      早晚 sooner or later
    用作形容词 (adj.)
    early days (yet)
      尚早 too soon to be sure how a situation,etc. will develop
