hi everybody welcome back to ask alicia
the weekly series where you ask me
questions and i answer them
maybe let's get to your first question
this week
first question this week comes from
henrique hi henrique
enrique says how do we use at in
and on correctly thank you okay very
quickly because there are videos on the
channel about how to use prepositions so
please do a search and check them out
very quickly to review let's begin with
at
we use at to mark specific locations in
cities that means like buildings so for
example i'm
at the bank or she's at the supermarket
we can also use at to refer to specific
locations outside cities like in the
countryside
like we're at the river today we also
use at
before times to mark specific times of
day
like let's meet at 2pm or she arrived at
3
- we also use at with night as in
at night please note we do not use at
with morning or
afternoon or evening those are incorrect
we only use it with
at night then let's talk about in we use
in before the names of cities and
countries like she lives in switzerland
or
he lives in barcelona or it's in toronto
so we use it before city names
and country names we can also use in
before a length of time to mark a
duration
like let's meet in 10 minutes or we
finish the project
in one hour we also use in
with months for example she moved in
february
or i'm going to europe in june finally
let's talk about
on we use on with days of the week and
to talk about the weekend
as in something we did on the weekend in
some variations of english you may hear
people saying
at the weekend but this is not used in
american english we use
on the weekend so we use on before days
of the week
as in let's meet on tuesday or
we had coffee together on saturday so
this is a very quick introduction to
different ways to use at in
and on as i said please do a quick
search of the channel for prepositions
to find
other videos with more details about
this topic so i hope that this helps you
thanks for the question
okay let's move on to our next question
next question
comes from
hi alicia what is the difference between
park and
garden thank you ah a park is generally
a big
open area with lots of grass you can
come to a park and you can do
like a variety of different activities
if you want to have a picnic or a
barbecue or you want to maybe
play a sport or something like that you
can generally do that in a park there's
a lot of really big
open space so maybe we can show a
picture on screen here so you can see
what a park a typical park looks like
a garden on the other hand is something
that's supposed to be enjoyed
for its design and when i say design i
mean like the
landscape design like maybe there are
special flowers inside the garden
or there's uh maybe special decorations
there's some kind of like landscape that
is special
in the garden so you might see parks and
gardens like together there might be a
garden inside a park
but a garden is generally not a place
that you go to
to do a specific activity like we don't
go to a garden to have a barbecue or we
don't go to a garden to play a sport
generally we go to a garden to enjoy the
scenery to enjoy
being in the garden like walking along
the paths in the garden
so parks are generally more open spaces
where we can do a variety of activities
gardens are spaces that we use for
enjoyment of that natural space
so i hope that this helps you thanks for
the question okay let's move on to your
next
question next question comes from
sumitha
aaron hello sumitha sumitha says i would
like to know the difference between
resume and curriculum vitae okay they
are very very similar a curriculum vitae
or cv as it is often called these are
very very similar documents
we use both of them to apply for jobs
so a cv is generally longer than a
resume maybe like three to four pages
and it includes everything you have ever
done all of your professional experience
so that's like your work experience
and your education experience yes so
where you went to school the degrees
that you have
the topics that you studied and so on
but we also on a cv
include our credentials our
certification so if you got some kind of
special
recognition if you got a scholarship a
grant if you've published anything like
a book or a paper
or if you have a thesis somewhere if
you've given a presentation
basically anything connected to your
work and your professional experience
will be listed on a cv so a cv is like a
very long
list of all of your achievements all of
your professional
and your educational achievements these
are kind of longer documents
a resume on the other hand is generally
a little bit shorter
it's maybe like one to two pages long
and it's kind of more of a summary
so in addition to including like your
contact information
uh you might have a short career
objective like that means
the thing that you are trying to do in
your career you might have that
and then generally with a resume you
have a series of
summaries of your past work so maybe you
have three or four companies or three or
four positions
on your resume and you summarize your
accomplishments and your role
in each of those positions so that
someone has a good idea has like a good
image
of what kind of work you have done and
therefore how it connects to your
current
objective so again a resume tends to be
a bit shorter than a cv maybe one to two
pages
but a cva like could be maybe three to
four pages if you have a long work
history
in the uk you might find that nobody
actually uses the word resume so if
you're speaking with a british english
speaker they might only use the word
cv cv generally refers to the same
concept as
a resume so i hope that this helps you
thanks very much for the question
okay let's move on to your next question
next question
comes from siam hello siam siam says
what's the difference between not and
no uh i'll give a very general answer to
this question
we use not and no to give
negative responses to things the grammar
of the sentence is what's important here
so we use not before adjectives and
verbs for example i am not hungry
or she's not sleeping or they do not
work
on saturdays so this comes before
adjectives or verbs
no of course is also used to respond to
yes or no questions with the negative
answer you may also hear it not used in
kind of a sarcastic way to reply to
someone's opinion or to respond to
someone's opinion
for example person a might say i really
liked that movie
and person b might respond with yeah me
too
not so this is kind of an old style
humor it's not it's actually not very
funny but some people try to use this
not to show contrast to the thing that
they just said
so this really means i'm going to
pretend that i agree with you for a
moment
but i don't really so you might hear
some people use
not in this way too so i hope that this
helps you thanks for the question
okay let's move on to our next question
next question
comes from arkan git hello arkon
arkon says what's the difference between
police station
and police department nice question yeah
a police station
is a building it's a physical place that
we can visit
so people work inside a police station
a police department on the other hand is
a part of an organization
so the police department refers to a
group of people
working together to do police work this
is the same as like a marketing
department in a company
or as like a sales department in an
online store
it refers to a group of people that are
doing the same
type of work a police department so a
police department refers to that group
of people
the police station refers to the
physical
building where police officers are
located
so in sentences you might say something
like i went to the police station
to file a report about my lost wallet
or the police department is working to
reduce crime in our city
so i hope that this helps you thanks
very much for the question
okay that is everything that i have for
this week thank you as always for
sending your questions
thanks very much for watching this
week's episode of ask alicia and i will
see you again next week bye

礼物大家好，欢迎回来询问
艾丽西亚每周系列你问我
问题的地方，我回答他们
也许让我们来回答你
本周的
第一个问题本周第一个问题来自
henrique hi henrique
enrique 说我们如何正确使用 at in
和 on
快速搜索并检查它们
以查看让我们从
at 开始，
我们使用 at 标记
城市中的特定位置，这意味着像建筑物一样，
例如我
在银行或她在超市，
我们也可以使用 at 来指代特定
位置 外面的城市，比如在
农村，
比如我们今天在河边，我们也
用
before time 来标记一天中的特定时间，
比如让我们在下午 2 点见面，或者她在
3 点
30 分到达。我们 也可以在晚上和
晚上一起使用 请注意我们不使用
at 早上或
下午或晚上那些不正确的
我们只
在晚上使用然后让我们谈谈我们
在她居住的城市和国家的名称之前使用 in
在瑞士，
或者
他住在巴塞罗那，或者在多伦多，
所以我们在城市名称和国家名称之前使用它，
我们也可以在
一段时间之前使用它来标记
持续时间，
比如让我们在 10 分钟内见面，或者我们
在一小时内完成项目，我们 也使用 in
with months 例如她在
2 月搬家
或我将在 6 月去欧洲 最后
让我们
谈谈我们在一周中的几天使用 on
并谈论周末，
就像我们在周末所做的
一些变化一样 你可能会在周末听到人们说的英语
，但这在
我们周末使用的美式英语中不
使用，所以我们在一周中的几天之前使用，
比如让我们在星期二见面，或者
我们在星期六一起喝咖啡，所以
这是一个非常 快速介绍
正如我所说的，对使用 at 和 on 的不同方式进行归纳 请快速
搜索频道以查找介词，
以查找
有关此主题的更多详细信息的其他视频，
因此我希望这对您有所帮助，
谢谢您的问题，
好吧，让我们继续我们的 下一个问题
下一个问题
来自
hi alicia
公园和
花园有什么区别 谢谢啊 公园通常
是一个很大的
开放区域，有很多草 你可以
来一个公园，如果你愿意，你可以
做各种不同的活动
野餐或
烧烤，或者
您想参加运动或类似的活动，
通常可以在公园里进行，那里
有很多非常大的
开放空间，所以也许我们可以
在屏幕上显示图片，这样您就可以
看到 一个公园 另一方面，一个典型的公园看起来
像一个花园
，它的设计应该是值得享受的，当我说设计时，我的
意思是像
景观设计，比如
花园里或那里可能有特殊的花
呃，也许是特殊的装饰，花园里
有一些特别的景观，
所以你可能会看到公园和
花园，就像公园里可能有
一个花园，
但花园通常
不是你
去的地方 特定活动，例如我们
不去花园烧烤或我们
不去花园进行运动
通常我们去花园欣赏
风景以
享受在花园中的乐趣，例如
沿着小径散步 花园，
所以公园通常是更开放的空间
，我们可以在其中进行各种活动
花园是我们用来
享受自然空间的空间，
所以我希望这对你有帮助 谢谢你
的问题 好的，让我们继续你的
下一个
问题 下一个问题 来自
sumitha aaron
你好 sumitha sumitha 说我
想知道
简历和履历之间的区别 好吧
它们非常相似 履历
或简历，因为它通常被称为这些
非常相似的文件 s
我们同时使用它们来申请工作，
所以简历通常比
简历长，可能像三到四页
，它包括你
做过的所有事情，你所有的专业
经验，就像你的工作经验
和教育经验一样
你在哪里上学 你的学位
你学习过的主题等等
但我们也在简历上
包括我们的证书 我们的
认证 所以如果你得到某种
特殊的
认可 如果你获得了奖学金
如果你已经发表了赠款 任何东西，比如
一本书或一篇论文，
或者如果你在某个地方有一篇论文，如果
你做了一个演讲，
基本上任何与你的
工作和你的专业经验相关的东西
都会列在简历上，所以简历就像一个
很长的
清单，列出了你所有的人 成就
你所有的专业
和教育成就 这些
是较长的
文件 另一方面，简历通常
有点短
，可能像一到两页
长 它更像是一个总结，
所以除了包括你的
联系信息
之外，你可能有一个短暂的职业
目标，比如这意味着
你在职业生涯中试图做的事情
你可能会拥有它
，然后通常是你的简历
有
一系列你过去工作的总结，所以你的简历上可能
有三四家公司或三
四个职位
，你总结了你的
成就和你
在每个职位中的角色，这样
别人就有一个好主意，就像一个好
形象
你做了什么样的工作，
因此它如何与你
当前的
目标联系起来，所以简历
往往比简历短一些，可能是一到两
页，
但如果你有一份简历，可能是三到
四页 在英国有很长的工作
历史
，你可能会发现实际上没有人
使用简历这个词，所以如果
你和一个说英国英语的人交谈，
他们可能只会使用这个词
cv cv 通常指的是与 a 相同的
概念
resume 所以我希望这对你有帮助
非常感谢你的问题
好吧 让我们继续你的下一个问题
下一个问题
来自 siam 你好 siam siam 说
not 和
no 有什么区别 呃 我会给这个问题一个非常笼统的答案
我们使用 not 和 no 来
对事物给出否定的回答
句子的语法在这里很重要，
所以我们在形容词和动词之前使用 not
例如我不饿
，她不睡觉，或者他们
在星期六不工作，所以这在
形容词之前 或动词
no 当然也用于
以否定答案回答是或否问题，
您可能还会听到它不
以讽刺的方式使用它来回答
某人的意见或回应
某人的意见
，例如人 a 可能会说我 真的
很喜欢那部电影
，而 b 人可能会回应是的，我
也不是，所以这是一种老式的
幽默，不是，实际上不是很
有趣，但有些人试图用
它来表达对立 对于他们刚才所说的事情，
所以这真的意味着我要
假装我同意你的观点，
但我真的不同意，所以你可能会听到
有些人也
用这种方式，所以我希望这会有所
帮助 谢谢你的问题
好的让我们继续下一个问题
下一个问题
来自 arkan git 你好 arkon
arkon 说
警察局
和
警察局有什么区别
人们在
警察局工作另一方面，警察部门
是组织的一部分，
因此警察部门是指
一起工作以从事警察工作的一群人，
这与
公司中的营销部门
或类似 在线商店中的销售部门
它指的是
从事同一
类型工作的一群人 警察部门 所以
警察部门是指警察局所指的
那群人 o
警察所在的实体建筑，
所以在句子中你可能会
说我
去警察局报告我丢失的钱包
或警察局正在努力
减少我们城市的犯罪，
所以我希望这对你有所帮助
非常感谢这个问题
好吧，这就是我本周的所有内容，
感谢您一如既往地
提出您的问题，
非常感谢您观看
本周的 Ask alicia 剧集，我
下周再见
