实际上是有关介词in和on的区别.介词in和on在表示方位的时候,在用法上有如下区别：
in表示在……中,在……内,例如：
in the village（在村里）
in the street（在街上）
in the fields（在田里）
in the woods（在树林里）
in the wall（在墙里面,例如在墙上打个钉）
on 表示在一个平面上,例如：
on the table（在桌上）
on the lake（在湖面上）
on the wall（在墙上,例如在墙的平面上挂幅画）
再比较：
We swim in the river．（我们在河里游泳）
We have a house on the river．（我们有座房子在河面上）
【in】我是“大姐”,因为我后面所接的都是较长时间.具体用法有：
1． 表示在较长的时间里（如周／月份／季节／年份／世纪等）.如：in a week； in May； in spring／summer／autumn／winter； in 2008； in the 1990’s等.
2． 表示在上午、下午或晚上.如：in the morning／afternoon／evening.
3． in the daytime（在白天） 属于固定搭配,指从日出到日落这一段时间,反义词组是in the night.
4． “in ＋ 一段时间”表示“多久以后／以内”,常与将来时连用.如：in half an hour； in ten minutes； in a few days等.
【on】我是 “二姐”,我后面所接的时间多与日期有关.具体用法有：
