on the contrary
用法要点
句型搭配
通常用于句首或句中，连接两个对比的陈述，前面常接否定或肯定句，后面引出相反观点。
介词用法
固定短语，介词'on'不可替换为其他介词如'in'或'at'，后面直接接'the contrary'，无需额外介词。
语域说明
多用于正式、学术或辩论场景，口语中较少使用，日常对话可能用'actually'或'相反地'替代，但语气较弱。

常见错误
错误使用了介词'in'，正确应为'on'，因为'on the contrary'是固定搭配，表示'正相反'。
语序错误，'always'作为副词应放在动词前或句末，正确语序为'he always works hard'以保持句子流畅。
近义词辨析
conversely
'conversely'更中性，用于逻辑对比或转换话题，而'on the contrary'强调直接反驳或对立，语气更强。
He prefers tea; conversely, she likes coffee. (中性对比) vs. He doesn't like tea; on the contrary, he hates it. (强烈反驳)
instead
'instead'表示替代或选择另一选项，而'on the contrary'用于否定前文并陈述相反事实，不涉及替代关系。
