词义辨析

ascend, climb, mount

• 这三个词的共同意思是“攀登”。其区别是：

• He ascended the stairs.他登上了楼梯。
• The soldiers stood beside their horses, waiting for the order to mount.士兵们站立在马的旁边,等待上马的命令。
• He mounted his horse away.他骑上他的马走了。

ascend，climb，mount

• 这些动词均含有“攀登，上升”之意。
• ascend正式用词，指不用手攀，一直上升直到相当高的地方。
• climb普通用词，含义广泛，侧重运用手足费力地攀登或上升，也可指抽象事物。
• mount书面用词，词义与ascend相近，强调连续不断地向上移动、攀登或上涨。指骑马时用mount。
