The work is now in hand. 和 The situation is well in hand. （5）on hand 用作“在所有中的”或“亟待处理的”解，英美都用。例如：Jack has only a little money on hand. 和 He has a task on hand. 用作“在场的”解是美国英语。例如：There was a foreigner on hand at the time of the accident. （6）to hand 作“（信）已被收到的”解，是商业信函里的用语。例如：Your letter is to hand. （7）at my（或 your 等）hands 作“受我（或你等）的动作的影响地”解。例如：She received something at his hands. at the hands of（某人）意思相同。例如：She received something at the hands of her brother. （8）in my（或 your 等）hands 作“受我（或你等）的管理、保存或控制的”解。例如：The child is in my hands.
