167: on time



今天我们要学的词组是on time。 On time是按时的意思。比如虽然天气恶劣,飞机还是按时抵达了, "The plane arrived on time despite the bad weather." 美国人必须按时向政府报税,报税的最后期限通常是每年的4月15号, "Americans have to file their tax returns on time, by April 15."

还比如巴基斯坦在穆沙拉夫总统撤换了最高法院大法官之后局势动荡,抗议活动不断,不过穆沙拉夫保证会按时举行选举, "Pakistan's President promised to hold elections on time." 今天我们学习的词组是on time...
