direction 的用法及固定搭配

direction

1.in...direction是“向着…的方向”,from...direction是“从…的方向”。in...direction里的in不可改作to。

2.an easterly direction里用an,不用the,但the direction of the east里用the,不用an。

3.说“命令”、“吩咐”、“指示”、“(药的)服法”、“(器具的)用法”等都习惯用复数形式。后面有时接以that引导的从句,那从句里用should。例如:Before he started, he left directions that his papers should be kept where they were.
