问题: 一道英语题

There is a cinema ____ the center of the town.
A. at B. on C. except D. in
at the center of in the center of 有什么区别?
Although Washinton is the capital of the United States,it is not at the center of the country.这是字典上的例句.

解答:

答案是D。at the center of 表示抽象的;in the center of 表示具体位置。例句应该这样翻译:华盛顿虽然是美国的首都,却不是国家的中心(意指人口、经济等),美国的中心是newyork。
