■on the radio / phone 和over the radio / phone 中的 on 和 over 均表示“方式”。
■英語很少說 over radio,但經?梢姷 on radio(尤其用于 on radio and television),如:
The most interesting thing on radio and television last weekend, without any doubt, was the tennis championships 毫無疑問,上周末,收音機和電視里最有趣的事就是網球冠軍賽。
但也不是說英美人就一定不說 over radio,如下面這句說摘自《美國英語學習詞典》:
Important news is broadcast instantly over radio and television. 重大新聞會立即在電臺或電視上播送。
■He cut his foot on a piece of broken glass. 中的on 用得沒錯,《劍橋高級英語詞典》對這樣用的介詞 on 是這樣解釋的——它表示“在……上(受傷或碰傷)”!秳蚋呒売⒄Z詞典》對此還舉了兩個例子:
I hit my head on the shelf as I was standing up. 我站起來的時候,頭撞在架子上。
You'll cut yourself on that knife if you're not careful. 你要是不小心會被那把刀劃傷的。 回復時間:
