   介词below与under的用法区别


  1. 两者都可表示“低于”,under 主要表示垂直在下的正下方,而 below 则不一定表示正下方(即可以是正下方或非正下方)。如:
  Look in the cupboard below [under] the sink. 到洗碗池下面的柜子里找一找。
  The climbers stopped 300 meters below the top of the mountain. 登山队员们在离山顶 300 米处停了下来。
  换句话说,表示正下方,两者都可用;不表示正下方,则通常用below。
  2. 两者均可表示数量方面的“少于”,但在现代英语中,以用 under 为多见。如:
  He can’t be much below [under] sixty. 他的年龄不可能比 60 岁小很多。
  There were under forty people at the meeting. 参加会议的人不足 40 人。
  It took us under an hour. 我们用了不到 1 个小时。
  注:在现代英语中,below 表示“少于”,主要用于表示温度、高度以及有纵向标准可比的情况。如:
  This place is below sea level. 此地在海平面以下。
  The temperature is two degrees below zero. 温度是零下 2 度。
  3. 若表示一物被另一物所覆盖,则通常用 under。如:
  She crept 1 in beside him under the bedclothes. 她钻进被窝躺在他身旁。
  4. 表示职位、级别等关系时,用 under 表直接关系,用 below 表非直接关系。比较:
  Mr A is under Mr B. A 先生是 B 先生的部下。
  Mr A is below Mr B. A 先生比 B 先生职位低。

v.蹑手蹑足地走( creep的过去式和过去分词 );缓慢地行进;爬行;匍匐
  • I crept up the stairs, trying not to wake my parents. 为了尽量不吵醒父母,我蹑手蹑脚地上了楼。
  • He had crept up on his unsuspecting victim from behind. 他从背后悄悄逼近了那毫无戒备的受害者。
