- 词义辨析
at (first) sight, at (the) first sight of
这两个短语意思不同:前者意为“乍一看”,含义是“仅凭表面而未深入探究”, first前没有定冠词the,多位于句末; 后者意为“一见到…(就)”,强调两个动作的连续性, first前常有定冠词the,可置于句末,亦可置于句首。另外, at (the) sight of常可转换为as soon as引导的时间状语从句。例如:They fell in love at first sight.他们俩一见钟情。The little rabbit darted to its mother at the sight of a man.这小兔子看到人,匆忙跳到母兔处。
