词语用法

v. (动词)

1. climb的基本意思是“攀登,向上爬”,是指步行或用手脚(也可借助工具)向上攀登,也可指日月的上升。引申可表示在社会地位上“钻营”“向上爬”; 在非正式用语中可作“匆忙或费力地穿衣或脱衣”解,此时常与介词into连用; 也可指货币“增值”。
2. climb用作及物动词时,可接名词或代词作宾语; 用作不及物动词时,可接down, on, out of和up等,表示动作的方向。
3. climb up本身已有“向上”的含义,所以climb up中的up有时可以省略。
4. climb中的字母b不发音。

n. (名词)

1. climb用作名词时,表示“向上爬”的动作,通常只用于单数形式。引申可指“攀登处,陡坡”,也可指为追求名或利而向上爬。

词义辨析

v. (动词)

climb to, climb into

• climb to的意思是“爬到或升到…”,强调位置; climb into的意思是“爬进”,强调动作。例如:
• I climbed to the top of the mountain yesterday.我昨天爬到了山顶。
• She climbed into the lifeboat.她爬进了救生艇。

climb, ascend, mount

• 这三个词的共同意思是“攀登”。其区别是：
• climb指费力地攀登或上升; ascend是正式用语,多用于指登至极高的地方; mount指向上登的过程,尤指上马等一次跳跃的动作。例如:
• It took me almost three hours to climb the steep hill.我花了几乎三个小时才爬上这座陡峭的山。
• 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。

climb, crawl

• 这两个词的共同意思是“爬”。其区别是：
• climb是指“用手脚攀登”,一般用于垂直地或倾斜地向高处爬; 而crawl一词是水平地“顺地爬,蠕动,匍匐前进”的意思。例如:
• After many attempts to climb it, the mountain was finally conquered〔overcome〕 in 1985.经过多次努力攀登,这座山终于在1985年被征服了。
• The baby crawled across the room.那个婴孩从房间的这边爬到那边。

climb, scale

• scale和climb都指攀登。scale仅指身体的动作,特别是为了越过障碍而采取的艰苦动作; climb强调吃力地或曲折地向上运动。

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。

creep，climb，crawl

• 这些动词都有“爬”之意。
• creep多指人或四足动物匍匐爬行，尤指偷偷地或不出声地缓慢向前爬行。也指植物的蔓延生长等。
• climb通常指用手或足爬上或爬下，也指飞机、日、月的上升，还可用作比喻。
• crawl指人或动物以身躯贴着地面缓慢地移动。

常见错误

v. (动词)

1. 他迅速地爬进树上茂密的枝叶中。

   误 He climbed quickly on a tree.

   正 He climbed quickly into a tree.

   析 这里不用介词on,而用介词into,是因为进入了茂密的枝叶之中。同时, on a tree通常是指固定的东西,如果实和树叶。

2. 我们乘缆车到了山顶。

   误 We climbed the peak by cable car.

   正 We went up the peak by cable car.

   析 climb表示“爬,登”,一般指用步行方式或手脚并用; 用其他方式或工具(如“车载”)时,用go up。

3. 我们忘了带钥匙,只好爬过大门。

   误 We forgot our key so we had to climb off the gate.

   正 We forgot our key so we had to climb over the gate.

   析 表示“翻越”“爬过”时, climb需接 over ,不能用off。

4. 我们明天打算去爬山。

   误 We are going to climb tomorrow.

   正 We are going climbing tomorrow.

   析 表示体育或娱乐活动,应说go+ v -ing,而不用go+to- v 。

5. 你爬上树去看一下打架的情况。

   误 You climb the tree to see the fight.

   正 You climb tree to see the fight.

6. 他想吃到果子就必须爬上那棵长满果子的树。

   误 He that would eat the fruit must climb tree.

   正 He that would eat the fruit must climb the tree.

   析 在说“爬树”时,如果不指明爬什么树或爬哪棵树,则不用冠词,只说climb tree; 但如果特指,则要加冠词。
