今天有小伙伴在我文章下面留言，说到了两个短语，同样是因为两者之间相差一个“the”而造成了意义完全不同。分别是“out of question”和“out of the question”，第一个没有“the”意思是“毫无疑问、无疑的”意思。第二个则是“不可能的”。因为这个很容易让人弄混淆，所以下面小编就继续为大家罗列一下英语中那些有the无the，导致意思大不同的词组。
1、at table & at the table
“at table”意思是“吃饭、进餐”
例句：We found them at table.
我发现他们正在进餐。
“at the table”意思是“在桌子旁边”为地点状语。
例句：They are standing at the table.
2、go to school & go to the school
“go to school”意思是“去上学”
例句：They choose if you go to school or stay home.
他们选择你是否去上学或待在家里。
“go to the school”意思是“到学校去”
例句：Do you go to the school on Saturday?
你们星期六去那所学校吗?
3、in charge of & in the charge of
“in charge of”意思是“负责、主管、掌管”
例句：I'm in charge of this school。我掌管这间学校。
“in the charge of”意思是“由...负责，由...掌管”
例句：He is in charge of these building workers. That is, they are in the charge of him.
他负责这些建筑工人，也就是他们在他的管辖之下。
4、by day & by the day
“by day”意思是“在白天、白日里”，也就是我们通常说的“in the daytime”.
例句：An odd-job man by day, he operates in Kent during the week and in London on weekends.
他在白天是个杂工，周一到周五在肯特郡干活，周末在伦敦。
“by the day”意思是“计日、按日计算”
例句：Billions of threads are being added by the day.
每天都有数十亿的线程增加到网络上。
5、by sea & by the sea
“by sea”意思是“由海路，乘船”，也就是我们通常理解的“by water , by boat”。
例句：They say the first Americans may have arrived by sea, rather than by foot.
他们表示，首批美洲人可能是经由海路抵达美洲的，而非徒步迁徙过去的。
“by the sea”意思是“在海边，在海岸上”，也就是“at the beach”的意思。
例句：our sister invite you for the weekend to her cottage by the sea.
你的姐妹邀请你周末去她在海边的小房子小住。
6、in case of & in the case of
“in case of”意思是“假使、如果、万一”
例句：You can count on me to help in case of difficulty.
若有困难， 当助一臂之力。
“in the case of”意思是“至于，在...情况下”
例句：In the case of two blade chassis, each node group should be specified on each blade.
在存在两个刀片机箱的情况下，每个刀片上都应指定每个节点组。
当然像这种因为相差一个“the”而导致意思大不相同的短语还有很多，比如说“other, the other”、“last week, the last week”、“in front of, in the front of”等等。他们之间都是有区别的，由于篇幅有限，小编就不再一一列举了，大家遇到时注意区分整理，慢慢的就能理解每个短语的意思了。
