“向相反方向”常见的英文表达有 "in the opposite direction" 或 "towards the opposite direction"。
In the opposite direction:更常用、更自然,例如:
The two cars were moving in the opposite direction.(两辆车朝相反方向行驶。)
Turn around and walk in the opposite direction.(转身,朝相反方向走。)
Towards the opposite direction:语法正确,但稍显正式或书面化,例如:
The birds flew towards the opposite direction of the storm.(鸟儿朝着风暴相反的方向飞去。)
根据语境选择即可,日常交流中 "in the opposite direction" 更常用。
