On time 和 In time 的区别
On time 及 In time 都是形容词，意思是准时、按时、没迟到等。但在英文句子的用法及结构中却不一样。
（1）
On time：一般用在句子后或最后两个字。On time 的用词是当一件事准时发
生，事情是按计划而发生的，如︰
eg︰The 11:45a.m. train left On time. 上午 11 时 45 分的火车按时出发了。（火车在上午 11 时 45 分出发。）
eg︰“I’ll meet you at 7:30 tonight。”“Okay,but please be On time.”“我今晚七点半见你。”“好的，不过请准时。”（第二者提醒第一者別迟到。）
eg︰The conference was very well organized. Everything began and finished On time.
会议安排得很好，所有的事项都准时开始及结束。
On time 的反义词是 late（迟到）︰
eg︰Be on time. Don’t be late. 要准时，別迟到。
（2）
In time：英文句子结构是——in time＋动词或某些情況
eg︰Will you be home in time for dinner？你会准时到家吃晚饭吗？（赶得及到家吃饭）
eg︰I’ve sent a birthday greeting card for Jill’s birthday.I hope it will arrived in time
before her birthday. 我已经寄了一张生日卡给 Jill，希望那张卡会在她生日前准时寄到。（赶得及寄给 Jill。）
eg︰I must hurry.I want to get home in time to watch the football final match.
我一定要快。我要准时到家看足球决賽。（赶得及看球賽。）
我们也可说 Just in time, 意思是刚好、正好、恰好准时︰
eg︰We got to the station just in time to catch the last train. 我们刚好准时到达车站，及时赶上最后一班火车。
eg︰A child ran across the road in front of my car,but I managed to stop my car just in time.有个小孩冲出马路到我的车前，不过我刚好及时把车停下来。
