at
once,
immediately,
right
now,

这四个短语常可互换,只是说话角度上有细微区别。
1.at
once等于now,
without
delay。如:
Do
it
at
once.立刻就做。
Come
here
at
once!马上就来!
at
once
也有“at
the
same
time,together”的意思。如:
Don’t
all
speak
at
once!
不要全体同时说话!
注意:all
at
once=suddenly
2.immediately和at
once相同,但语意上侧重于“紧接着”。如:
She
answered
almost
immediately.她几乎立刻作了回答。(紧接着问,立刻作答)
He
will
be
ready
immediately.他马上就会准备好。(暗指还需几分钟)
注意:immediately还可做连词,等于as
soon
as。如:
I
told
him
immediately
he
came.他一来我就告诉他了。
3.right
now指at
this
moment,
right
away指毫不犹豫或毫不耽误的“立即”。如:
If
you
get
the
address,
let
me
know
right
away.你看到地址,请立即告诉我。
Shall
we
begin
right
now?
我们现在就开始吗?
