3 by day, in the day, during the day 比较
By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes
on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova—not as a musician but as her page
turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can
help Mariain in her performance.”
上面一段摘自2021年新高考英语全国卷I的阅读理解B。请问第一句开头的 by day 是什么用法？这个 by day 可以换成 in the day, during the day 吗？

你的句子中的 by day 完全可以换成 in the day 或 during the day，也可以换成 in the daytime，它们之间的细微区别是：by day 除表示“在白天”外，有时隐含有“趁着白天”的意思（与 by night 相对）。如：
Cats sleep by day and hunt by night. 猫白天睡觉，夜里捉老鼠。
如果不考虑这种隐含意思，它们的用法基本是相同的。
