英语“方位”表示法• (一 ) in the east 与 on the east的区别

• 1． in the east表示我们生活中和地理位置上的绝对方向。如：The sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

太阳从东边升起，从西边落下。The Great Wall begins in the east from the

Shanghaiguan Pass and ends at the Jiayuguan Pass in

the west.

长城东起山海关，西至嘉峪关。

• 2． on the east表示某事物位于另一事物所朝的方向。这里的方向是相对而言的。如：China faces the Pacific on the east.

中国东临太平洋。The United States faces the Atlantic on the east and

the Pacific on the west.

美国东临大西洋，西濒太平洋。

• (二 ) in (to， on， at) the east of

• 1．要表示 A在 B的东部，即： A在 B的范围之内时就用“ A is in the east of B”，如：

• Japan is in the east of Asia. 日本在亚洲东部。Italy is in the south of Europe. 意大利在欧洲南部。

• 2．如果 A在 B的东方，即： A在 B的范围之外，且相隔有一定的距离，就用“ A lies to the east of B”.口语中有时可将 to the省去。如：

• Japan lies (to the) east of China.日本位于中国东方。France lies (to the) east of England.法国位于英国东方。

• 3．如果 A在 B的东边（侧），即： A与 B相邻接。就用 "A is on the east of B".如：Guangdong is on the south of Hunan.广东在湖南南边。Shangdong is on the north of Jiangsu.山东在江苏北边。

• 5． “如果要表示 A位于 B东面 100 ”公里处 时我们

既可以说 "A lies l00km to the east of B"，也可以

说 "A lies 100km east of B". 后者在美国口语中更

为常见。如：

The plane crashed 30 miles south of the city.

飞机在离城南 30英里处坠毁。

Suzhou lies 50 miles to the west of Shanghai.

苏州位于上海西面 50英里处。

• (三 ) “ ”汉语里 东南西北 的先后顺序到英语里就变成了 north， south， east， west；并由此有了下列中、英文表达上的差异。

东南方： southeast 西南方： southwest

• 如：十三陵位于北京西北 50公里处。The Ming Tombs are located about 50 km to the

northwest of Beijing.

天津位于北京东南 120公里处。Tiajin is situated l20 km southeast of Beijing.

• (四 ) “ ”要表示方位的 偏向 时通常用 by。

• 如：We are sailing in the direction of east by north.

我们正朝着正东偏北方向航行。The island lies south by east from here.
