用作副词的home可连用哪些介词

问题描述

home用作副词时，最通常连用的介词是at。如：

Jane works at home. 简在家工作。

He found it impossible to study at home. 他觉得不可能在家学习。

If it rained tomorrow, we’d stay at home. 如果明天下雨，我们将待在家里。

除at外，home还可连用哪些介词？

老师答疑

陈老师：

连用 at

If necessary, ring me at home. 如果必要，可往我家里打电话。

I had the luck to find him at home. 我很幸运，找他时他正在家。

If it rained tomorrow, I would stay at home. 要是明天下雨，我就呆在家里。

连用 for

The following morning she left for home. 第二天早上她就动身回家了。

Our mission accomplished, we headed for home. 完成任务后，我们就返回了。

连用 from

She supposed him to be away from home. 她认为他不在家。

I haven’t been away from home before. 我从前没离开过家。

连用to

Each footstep brought him closer to home. 每一步路使他离家更近。

I love the job, and it’s an added bonus that it’s so close to home. 我喜欢这个工作，它还有个优点是离家很近。

但此用法只限于某些特定的搭配，如close to, from…to…等，但不能说go to home, return to home等（应去掉to）。

连用without

According to the revised estimate, four million people will be without homes. 根据修改过的估计，400 万人将无家可归。（句中的home用了复数，说明它已是名词）
