at和in的用法区别

问题描述

The idea that modern art can only be seen in museums is mistaken.

在复述这句话的时候将 in 说成了 at，这里能说成 at 吗？

感觉 In 和 at 的用法好难分清啊!

老师答疑

陈老师：

The idea that modern art can only be seen in museums is mistaken.

参考译文：只能在博物馆欣赏现代艺术,这种想法/观念是错误的。

以上结构为一个同位语从句

The idea +that 同位语从句+系动词+表语 结构

（....的想法/观点是...）

在复述这句话的时候将 in 说成了 at，这里能说成 at 吗？

感觉 In 和 at 的用法好难分清啊!

不能换成介词at.in 表示在一个空间范围内，介词at 强调在空间方位某个点上。

刘老师：

在有些场所名词之前，in 和at 是通用的。例如：

in school (college, university) = at school (college, university)

in the museum = at the museum

in the theatre = at the theatre

in the hospital = at the hospital 

in the store (shop, market) = at the store (shop, market)

in the gallery = at the gallery

in the competition = at the competition
