汉语通常说“100元”,说成英语 100 yuan,若用符号“¥”呢,是是¥100还是100¥?请看下面这道题:

This picture cost me __________ and that one cost me __________.

A. ¥100,£100 B. 100¥,100£ C. 100¥,£100 D. ¥100,100£

分析:此题应选 A。这里涉及使用完整单词和使用符号、字母等情况的词序问题。比较:

这电脑花了我们500美元。

正:The computer cost us 500 dollars.

正:The computer cost us ¥500.

我向他借了1000英镑。

正:I borrowed 1000 pounds from him.

正:I borrowed £1000 from him.

类似地,注意以下情况(有的与汉语词序一致,有的不一致)。如:

他上午8:00到达。

正:He arrived at 8:00 in the morning.

正:He arrived at 8:00 a. m.
