in front of 的10個“兄弟”

■湖南道縣一中 蔣柳清

in front of是一個同學們比較熟悉的有用搭配，它的特點是：第一個詞是介詞in，最后一個詞是介詞of，中間的名詞前沒有任何修飾語（既沒有冠詞也沒有物主代詞），整個短語相當于一個介詞（語法上稱之為“復合介詞”）。

一、in front of 的用法

in front of 的意思是“在……前面；在……面前”。如：

A van was parked right in front of my car. 一輛貨車正好停在我的汽車面前。

You shouldn’t use such bad language in front of the children. 在孩子們面前，你不應該說這種粗話。

注意in front of 與 in the front of 的意思不同：前者指范圍之外的“在……前面”，后者指范圍之內的“在……前部”。比如：

The car stopped in front of the post office. 車在郵局前面停了下來。

The driver sits in the front of the bus. 公共汽車司機上的司機都是坐在車前的。
