inside是語氣很強的介詞。它常用來強調某 人或某事所在地含有某種特殊情況,比如: Inside the castle we"ll be safe from the enemy. 在上句中,說話人可能想到的是城堡上厚厚的城 牆,或城堡是一個非常堅固的地方。當然,某人 也能把一個相當普通的地方說成是一個牢不可破 的堡壘,比如: He barricaded himself inside the house and started firing at the police.
有時說話人想強調某個地方的空間非常狹窄,比如: It was hot and stuffy inside the prison cell.
inside也可用於與外面的事情(something outside) 作對比: It was quite hot outside the cave but when we were inside, we started to shiver.
除需要特別強調以外,通常都用in。例如, 用於建築物或建築物內的房間:in the house, in the office; 用於有圍欄或圍牆的地方:in the garden, in the courtyard, in the park; 用於交通工具: in the train, in the car, in the bus; 用於江河湖海:in teh sea, in the river, in teh water。 還可用於飲料,如: There"s a fly in my lemonade.
儘管人們在 There may be beetles in the lawn 或in the carpet中用in,但是在One sits on the lawn或on the carpet中卻要用on。
in和inside都表示靜態,如果一句話中有並列時,前面用的是outside,後面就用inside。
一般in表示在某個空間內,而inside還有掩蓋、受保護的意思。
