重点解释

妙语佳句:

Who among you will be the vanguard of democracy, freedom, and discovery?你们当中谁将是民主，自由，和发明的先锋?

among:在 ... 之中, ...之一

among的用法比amongsta普遍。元音前，多用amongst（很少在美国使用）， 如amongst us；

among与between的比较：

among用在三个或三个以上的人或物前，between是用在两者之间, 与and搭配，如between he and me，但不与among搭配，不能说among A， B and C。

表示在某些物体的两边之间时，不管物体的数量多少，用between。
