英语翻译题目

英语翻译题目老师指着黑板，用point to 还是 piont at 选择题有两个选项，选哪个

Answer 1

point to与point at都含有“指……”的含义,但二者侧重点不同.point to侧重指方向,意为“指向”；point at侧重指的对象,意为“指着”.如果表述的内容强调对象就用point at；如果强调方向,则用point to.例如：
It is rude to point at a person．指着人是失礼的.
The teacher is pointing at the map and saying,“Here is Beijing．”
老师指着地图说：“这是北京.”
The needle of a compass points to the north．罗盘针指向北方.
Both the hour hand and the minute hand pointed to twelve．It was noon．时针和分针都指着十二,是正午的时候.

你好，

一般来说 point to 与 piont at 是可以互换的。不过两者也是有一些区别。

• "Point at" 习惯上表示指向离说话人较近的事物，重点在于指的对象。

（"Point at" usually means that something indicates a specific place occupied by a second thing.）

• "Point to" 一般用来表示指向离说话人较远的事物，重点在于指的方向。

（"Point to" usually means that something indicates a general direction. It is more commonly used to describe ideas or arguments rather than concrete objects.）

以下几个例句供你参考

• The teacher pointed at the blackboard and said，“You must look carefully.” 

• The evidence collected during an inquiry points to the correct interpretation of the event being studied

• A rude boy points his finger at a man in a wheelchair.

通过上面的解释以及例句，你应该对问题已经有答案了。那就是用“piont at”

“piont at”and “piont to” are often interchangeable in real life

最后注意的一点是，如果是用枪指向某人或物件的话，只能用piont at.

There's one exception where you point your gun at something but not to something.

希望回答对你有所帮助。

谢谢！

Answer 3

The teacher pointed at/to the blackboard 都可以，但侧重点有些不同。pointed at 侧重于被指的那个点， 而pointed to 侧重于指向的这个动作。

Answer 4

用前者，后者指朝着对着。
