词义辨析

v. (动词)

raise, rise

• 这两个词都有“提高,上升,增加”的意思,但其用法不同。
• 1.raise是及物动词,其主语通常是人; 而rise是不及物动词,其主语通常是物。例如:
• I feel I must raise my voice against suggested changes in the law.我认为我必须对该法律所提出的修改条款提出反对。

raise, boost, elevate, enhance, exalt, grow, heighten, hoist, lift

• 这组词都有“升,抬起,举高”“增加”的意思。它们的区别是：

• Reading good books elevates your mind.阅读好书能增进你的心灵修养。
• The good news elevated everyone's spirits.这个好消息鼓舞了每个人的精神。

• The low clouds began to lift.低空的云开始上升。
• He lifted a heavy stone.他举起了一块重石。

• 这组词(组)都有“抚养、饲养”的意思。其区别在于：
• 1.raise是非正式用语,英式英语中指“养动植物”,美式英语中指“抚养人”。
• 2.rear在英式英语中指“抚养人”,在美式英语中指“养动植物”,既指“从小养到大”,也指“教养”,是正式用语。例如:

• She likes rearing birds.她喜欢养鸟。
• He used to rear pigs.他以前养猪。

常见错误

v. (动词)

1. 他举手提问。

   误 He rose his hand to ask a question.

   正 He raised his hand to ask a question.

2. 女主人起身欢迎我们。

   误 The hostess raised to greet us.

   正 The hostess rose to greet us.

   析 raise和rise都可表示“由低向上升高的动作或趋势”,但raise是及物动词,在主动句中其后必须有宾语; rise是不及物动词,后面不直接跟宾语。

3. 1949年10月1日,人们第一次看到五星红旗在天安门广场升起。

   误 October 1,1949 saw the rising of the five-star red flag for the first time on Tian An Men Square.

   正 October 1,1949 saw the raising of the five-star red flag for the first time on Tian An Men Square.

   析 国旗是被升起的,不是自动上升的。因此, rising尽管形式不错,但意义不准确,应该用raising。

4. 他努力学习提高自己的英语水平。

   误 He studies hard to raise his English level.

   正 He studies hard to improve his English.

   析 raise his English level是逐字直译的汉式英语,“提高英语水平”可用 improve one's English表达。

词源解说
