如题所述

Answer 1

　　call at 后接地点，表示到某人的家或其他场所去拜访某人。
　　We called at Mr. Johnson's house yesterday. 我们昨天到约翰逊家访问。
　　I called at his office as I was passing. 我路过时去访问了他的事务所。

　　call on 比较正式，后接人作宾语，指进行短暂的访问。访问者和受访者一般只有社交或公务关系。如：

　　We were called on by our neighbours before we had been settled in our new home a week.
　　我们迁入新居还不到一星期，邻居都来探望过我们了。
