很多同學(xué)經(jīng)常分不清楚tall和high之間的區(qū)別,不知何時(shí)該用tall,何時(shí)該用high。主要原因就是tall與high翻譯過(guò)來(lái)的中文意思都是“高的”,而且詞性一致,都是形容詞用在被動(dòng)詞之后。
那么我們就來(lái)辨析一下究竟tall和high之間有什么不同?
Tall的英文詞義是;
adj.
1.??????reaching or having grown to a considerable or above average height高大,魁偉,身材修長(zhǎng)的
2.??????having reached a particular height身材高的,高大的
3.??????substantial, demanding, or difficult to deal with大(杯、量)
4.??????exaggerating the events of something beyond the bounds of probability, especially in a boastful way美口〕(數(shù)量)大的
5.??????having an excessively grand or boastful style夸大的
adv.
1.??????in a proud or courageous way〔口語(yǔ)〕夸大地;趾高氣揚(yáng)地

例句:

2.??????He said: 'High integration of brain networks seems to be associated with high IQ.
大腦網(wǎng)絡(luò)的高度一體化問(wèn)題似乎與高智商有關(guān)。
一般說(shuō)到人,動(dòng)物,樹(shù)木等有生命的東西,主要用tall,不用high,例如a tall woman一個(gè)高個(gè)子?jì)D女a(chǎn) tall horse一個(gè)高大的馬。但是在形容一個(gè)不與地面接觸的人和物的高度時(shí),要用high,而不是用tall,比如人站在桌子上時(shí),飛機(jī)飛上天時(shí),例如:He is high up in the tree.他高高地爬在樹(shù)上。The plane is so high in the sky.飛機(jī)在空中這么高。形容一些建筑物、山時(shí),可以tall或high,不過(guò)high的程度比tall高。
另外,tall的反義詞為short, high的反義詞為low.
以上就是tall和high之間的基本釋義,現(xiàn)在你能分辨清楚high與tall之間的區(qū)別了嗎?
