用法辨析
- fall的基本意思有二:一是向更低的位置縱向移動,意為“降落,落下; 摔下,倒下”“(突然)跌倒”“下降,降低”。二是表示狀態(tài)的變化,常指陷入不夠理想的境地,意為“戰(zhàn)斗中受傷倒下,陣亡”“進(jìn)入…狀態(tài)”“失去權(quán)力,失勢,垮臺”“被打敗,被攻克”“(臉色)突然陰沉下來”。fall引申可表示“降臨”“下垂”“往下傾斜”“說出”“墮落,完全為邪念所控制”等。
- fall主要用作不及物動詞,也可以用作系動詞,后接形容詞(不接比較級)作表語表示“進(jìn)入某種狀態(tài)”,有時后面也可接名詞,意思是“變成,成為”。
- fall偶爾也用作及物動詞,僅用于美式英語和英國方言中,意思是“擊倒,砍倒(樹木)”。
- fall to意為“開始”時, to是介詞,后面只能接名詞或動名詞。
- fall的現(xiàn)在分詞falling和過去分詞fallen可用作形容詞,在句中作定語。
- fall用作名詞的基本意思是“跌落,跌倒”,也可指“降落物,降落量”,引申可表示數(shù)量、價格、需要、程度等的“下降、降低或減少”,是可數(shù)名詞。
- fall也可表示“掉落的距離,落差”,是單數(shù)名詞,后常接介詞of。
- fall還有“陷落; 垮臺; 滅亡; 沒落”的意思,是單數(shù)名詞,并常與定冠詞the連用,可引申作“墮落,淪落”解,是單數(shù)名詞,有時首字母大寫。
- fall還可作“瀑布”解,常用復(fù)數(shù),謂語動詞用單復(fù)數(shù)形式均可。
