词语用法

n. (名词)

1. foot的基本意思是“脚,足”,引申可表示“足部”“底部,底座”“脚步,步伐”等。
2. foot作“足部”解时一般用单数形式; 作“底部,底座”解时是单数名词,并常与定冠词the连用; 作“脚步,步伐”解时为不可数名词,其后常接介〔副〕词短语。
3. foot还可以用作长度单位,意思是“英尺”,有时可采用零复数形式,即单数形式表示复数意义,表示“每英尺”时, foot前加a而不加one。
4. foot为不规则名词,复数为feet。

v. (动词)

1. foot用作动词的意思是“走,踏”,也可作“结算; 总计,共计”解。
2. foot可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时接名词或代词作宾语。
3. foot在口语中常接一个没有意义的it作同源宾语,表现某种情绪。

词义辨析

n. (名词)

at the foot of, at the feet of

• 两者意思不同:at the foot of意为“在…的底部,在…的基部”; 而at the feet of的意思是“在某人脚下(或支配下)”“拜倒在…脚下”。例如:
• My native village stands at the foot of the mountain.我出生的那个小村庄坐落在山脚下。
• They fell down at the feet of their enemy.他们向敌人屈服了。

on foot, on one's feet

• 两者意思不同:on foot意思是“步行; 进行起来,在筹划中”,而on one's feet意思是“站着,站起来; 痊愈”。

常见错误

n. (名词)

1. 马拉松选手容易患应力性骨折和多种足疾。

   误 Marathon runners are prone to stress fractures and a large number of feet ailments.

   正 Marathon runners are prone to stress fractures and a large number of foot ailments.

2. 他把床留给老人,自己就睡在床脚边。

   误 He left the bed to the old man and lay at foot of the bed himself.

   正 He left the bed to the old man and lay at the foot of the bed himself.

   析 at the foot of...是固定词组,不能省略定冠词the。

3. 她给我的印象是,她的一只脚已进了坟墓。

   误 She gave me the impression that she had a foot in the grave.

   正 She gave me the impression that she had one foot in the grave.

   析 “一只脚进坟墓(入土半截)”,英语的说法是have one foot in the grave,不能把one改成a。

4. 这个间谍一踏上国土,就被逮捕了。

   误 The spy was arrested as soon as he set a foot on the country.

   正 The spy was arrested as soon as he set foot on the country.

   正 I like to go to school on foot.

6. 他们徒步旅行。

   误 They made the journey by foot.

   正 They made the journey on foot.

7. 他们步行去而我们开车去。

   误 They went by foot while we drove.

   正 They went on foot while we drove.

   析 “步行”应该说on foot,而不是by foot。

8. 我们决定步行去博物馆。

   误 We decide to walk to the museum on foot.

   正 We decide to go to the museum on foot.

   析 walk本身就是go on foot的意思,再与 on foot连用句意重复,所以应该去掉其中之一。
