in terms of + noun/-ing; in + adjective + terms (in financial terms)
- In terms of location, the flat is perfect, but the rooms are rather small.
- The two laptops are very similar in terms of battery life.
- In terms of grammar, your essay is fine, but the vocabulary is too simple.
修改原因
修改前In term of salary, the new job is much better.
修改后In terms of salary, the new job is much better.
这个表达中的 terms 固定用复数,词尾 s 很容易被漏掉。原句只需补上一个字母,成为 in terms of。
使用形容词时,结构会变化:去掉 of,把形容词放在 terms 前。In financial terms, the move was a mistake 表示从财务角度看,这次搬迁是个错误。In practical terms 也是同样的结构。但 in simple terms 意思不同,表示用简单的话来说。
动手练习
___ transport, the new office is much more convenient because there is a metro station next door.

In terms of — 句子从交通这一方面评价新办公室,因此选 in terms of。According to 用来引出信息来源,而这里的 transport 是评价标准,不是提供信息的来源。
比较两个你曾经居住、学习或工作的地方。选一个方面,用 in terms of 作比较。
In terms of noise, my new flat is much better than the old one, which was right above a busy bar.
