at times:
有时;不时
[例句]

潮水有时涨得很高。
I like Bob but he's very annoying at times.

The tide is at times very high.
潮水有时涨得很高。
She calls on me at times.
她有时来看我。
at a time
作“一次,每次”讲,常用于“数词+at a time”的结构中。例如:
Enter two at a time.
每次进来两人。
He checked them off one at a time as they came in.
他们进来时,他一个一个地核对。
注意它与at
one time 的区别。at one time一般指“过去某一时期,曾一度(once)”或“同时”的意思。如表示“同时”,则两者可通用。例如:
At one time I used to like her, but not any more.
我曾一度很喜欢他,现在可不喜欢了。
at the time:
(1) 那时
then
[例句]
In 1969 the first men landed on the moon--I was twelve at the time.
一九六九年人类第一次登上月球——那时我十二岁。

sometime,sometimes,some time,some times用法区别
sometime
(1)副词:某个时候。可指过去或将来的某个时候。如:
① Would you come to the cinema with me, sometime? 赏脸找个时间和我看场电影吗?(将来)
② We’ll take our holiday sometime in August. 我们会在八月找个时间度假。(将来)
③ I bought this sometime last summer. 这是我在上个夏天买的。(过去)
④ This mansion was built sometime around 1980. 这栋大厦是1980年左右建的。(过去)
(2)形容词:前,过去的。意思类似former。
① This is our sometime general manager.这是我们的前任总经理。
② Our sometime classmate, Rose, is now a pop star. 我们以前的同学罗斯,现在是明星了。
sometimes 副词:有时候。顺便提一下,at times也是“有时”的意思。
① Every man is a fool sometimes, and none at all times. 每个人有时都会犯傻,但没有谁会一直都傻。
② I sometimes have letters from him. 有时我会收到他的来信。
some time 某段时间。常与for连用。

② I will keep the computer for some time, so you can use it.这部电脑我会留着一段时间,你可以用。some times 几次。several times也可以表示“几次”,但比some times较确定。time作可数名词时可作“次数”解;表示“时间”时是不可数名词。
① I am sure that we have met some times before.我肯定我们之前见过几次了。
② The newly bought microwave oven failed to work some times.新买的微波炉坏了几次了。
