fall的詳細講解:

詞語用法

v. (動詞)
  1. 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”。二是表示狀態的變化,常指陷入不夠理想的境地,意為“戰斗中受傷倒下,陣亡”“進入…狀態”“失去權力,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。
  2. 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“進入某種狀態”,有時后面也可接名詞,意思是“變成,成為”。
  3. 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)”。
  4. fall to意為“開始”時, to是介詞,后面只能接名詞或動名詞。
  5. fall的現在分詞falling和過去分詞fallen可用作形容詞,在句中作定語。
n. (名詞)
  1. fall用作名詞的基本意思是“跌落,跌倒”,也可指“降落物,降落量”,引申可表示數量、價格、需要、程度等的“下降、降低或減少”,是可數名詞。
  2. fall也可表示“掉落的距離,落差”,是單數名詞,后常接介詞of。
  3. fall還有“陷落; 垮臺; 滅亡; 沒落”的意思,是單數名詞,并常與定冠詞the連用,可引申作“墮落,淪落”解,是單數名詞,有時首字母大寫。
  4. fall還可作“瀑布”解,常用復數,謂語動詞用單復數形式均可。
  5. fall在美式英語中還可作“秋天”解。

詞義辨析

v. (動詞)
fall asleep, be asleep
  • be asleep指睡著的狀態,可以接表示延續性時間的狀語; 而fall asleep指的是一時的動作。試比較下面兩句:
  • He has been asleep for three hours.
  • 他睡了三個小時。
  • One after another, all of them fell asleep.
  • 那些人一個接一個地睡著了。
  • fall, descend, drop, sink
  • 這四個詞都可表示物體向下降落。它們之間的區別是:
  • 1.sink指在空氣或水中垂直下降、下沉; descend則通常指沿斜線或斜坡下降; 而drop與fall均可指急速地向下墜落,可直可斜。例如:
  • The walk descends sharply.小路下傾得很厲害。
  • The ship struck against the rocks and sank.那船觸礁沉沒了。
  • We saw an apple falling〔dropping〕 down from the tree yesterday.昨天我們看見一個蘋果從樹上掉下來。
  • 2.drop指物體由于重力從高處往下落; fall指物體由于不明原因或物體本身失去平衡而向下降落,有自然下落的意思。例如:
  • She dropped the cup.她把杯子弄掉了。
  • Leaves fall in autumn.秋天樹葉下落。
  • 3.drop通常是有意識、有目的地下落; 而fall則往往是無意識地下落。例如:
  • The enemy planes dropped bombs.敵機投下了炸彈。
  • Rain is falling fast.雨下得很大。
  • 4.drop引申可表示物價的降落; sink還可指精力或意識逐漸喪失。例如:
  • The price of oil has dropped sharply.石油價格暴跌。
  • His heart sank.他感到沮喪。
  • 5.drop一般用作及物動詞,偶爾也用作不及物動詞; fall則通常用作不及物動詞。
  • fall short of, lack
  • 這兩者意思并不相同:lack的意思是“缺乏”;而fall short of的意思是“沒有達到”。例如:
  • He has the ability to work well, but he lacks confidence.他有能力把工作做好,但他缺乏信心。
  • The movie fell short of expectation. 影片沒有人們想象中的好。
  • The salary increases fell short of what they expected. 工資增加沒有他們期待的那樣多。
  • fall asleep, sleep
  • 這兩個詞(組)的共同意思是“睡著,入睡”。其區別是:
  • 前者含有“持續”的意義,而后者則是表示一時的動作。例如:
  • I have slept for seven hours.我已睡了7個小時了。
  • Bob was so tired that he fell asleep the moment his head touched the pillow.鮑勃累極了,一碰到枕頭就睡著了。
  • 下面兩個句子意思不同:
  • He fell from the roof.
  • 他從屋頂掉下來。
  • He fell off the roof.
  • 他從屋頂滾落下來。
  • n. (名詞)
    fall, autumn
  • 這兩個詞都可表示“秋天”,其區別是:
  • 1.一般說, autumn是英語, fall是美語,但這并不絕對。由于秋天是落葉的季節,故美語一般將秋天講作fall,但在書面語中也用autumn,而在作形容詞用時,更是多用autumn而很少用fall。
  • 2.autumn之前可不用冠詞,而fall前則一般要用冠詞。
  • autumn,fall
  • 這兩個名詞均含“秋天”之意。
  • autumn為英國用詞。
  • fall是美國用詞。
  • collapse,fall
  • 這兩個動詞都含有“倒塌”之意。
  • collapse通常指房屋等突然倒塌。
  • fall一般指由于失去平衡等原因而倒塌,也可作引申用。
  • descend,drop,fall,sink
  • 這些動詞都表示“落下,下降”之意。
  • descend通常指沿斜線或斜坡下降。
  • drop指物體從一定高度落下。
  • fall與drop同義,指突然或猛烈地降落,但fall也可指任何下落,同高度或形式無關。
  • sink指在空氣或水中垂直下降、下沉。
  • 常見錯誤

    v. (動詞)
      他失去平衡,跌倒在地上。

      He lost his balance and falled to the ground.

      He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

      fall的過去式、過去分詞分別是fell, fallen,而不是falled。

      她摔倒在地板上,昏了過去。

      She fell unconsciously on the floor.

      She fell unconscious on the floor.

      fall作“變為…”“進入…狀態”解時為系動詞,后面通常跟形容詞作表語,行為方式副詞不可與系動詞連用。

      你病了多久了?

      How long have you fallen ill?

      How long have you been ill?

      fall是瞬間動詞,不能與表示一段時間的狀語連用。本句可改用表示延續性的動詞be,也可改為it is...since...句型。

      夕陽西下入大河。

      The setting sun was falling into the great river.

      The setting sun was sinking into the great river.

      fall into的意思是“落入”“掉進”,指突然或瞬間的動作,不用于進行時態。

      你如果不當心,會跌下樓梯的。

      You'll fall down on the stairs if you're not careful!

      You'll fall down the stairs if you're not careful!

      fall down the stairs就是“跌下樓梯”的意思, down是介詞,其后不用on。

      那嬰孩從高腳椅上跌落下來。

      The baby fell off from its high-chair.

      The baby fell from its high-chair.

      The baby fell off its high-chair.

      表示“從…跌落”時可以用fall from或fall off,在這里不能將from和off并列使用。

      這個士兵突然跪下投降了。

      Suddenly the soldier fell with his knees to surrender.

      Suddenly the soldier fell on his knees to surrender.

      “跪下”可譯為fall on one's knees; “側身倒下”可譯為fall down on one's side。

    n. (名詞)
      秋天樹葉會變黃。

      Leaves turn yellow in fall.

      Leaves turn yellow in the fall.

      fall作“秋天”解時其前一般要加定冠詞the。
