我有个英语,读不懂 ,
首先这篇文章讲的是鸟迁徙时的导航和定位能力
有三个地方
He found that under these circumstances,the birds oriented with respect to the new "Sun."
However,its position with respect to the surroundings could be changed by revolving either the inner cage containing the birds or the outer walls,which served as the background.
If the artificial Sun remained stationary,the birds would shift their direction with respect to it at a rate of about 15 degrees per hour,the Sun's rate of movement across the sky.
这三个句子中间 都出现了 with the respect
请问 respect with the respect 是一个短语么?如果是 ,
一般又是怎么用这个短语呢?
写错了 不是with the respect ,是 with respect to。

Answer 1

不是 with the respect ,是 with respect to.
这是个常用短语,意思就是“相对于...”
你这段文字中已经出现了三个很好的例子了,试试看能否理解整句意思,就是这样的用法.
如果仍有疑惑可再追问喽
