翻译：1.the seminar will be on in a quarter of an hour.
我的理解：研讨会将于一个小时一刻钟开始。答案：the seminar will start in 15 minutes.
不能理解：in a quarter of an hour. 为什么是表示15分钟.

in 表示即将来到的时间概念.be on表示开始,上演等含义.in表示在多长时间以后发生.a quarter of an hour的意思就是前面老兄说的"一刻钟,15分钟"的意思.此句关键在于介词in的用法.

a quarter是四分之一，an hour是一个小时，in a quarter of an hour就是一个小时的四分之一，也就是15分钟了

quater=一刻钟=15 minutes
