单词 | asleep |
释义 | asleep/ ə′sli:p/ adj [无comp] (1)睡着的(sleeping;not awake)[作pred]:be fast/sound~在熟/酣睡;fall/drop~睡着了;the man~in bed/under the tree 在床上/树下睡着了的人;He remained~despite the noise.尽管噪音不止他仍熟睡不醒。be~with one's head on his arms 头枕着手臂睡着了;〖同〗sleeping;〖反〗awake; (2)麻木的((of arms or legs)unable to feel)[作pred]:He has been sitting on his leg and now it's~.他一直单腿跪着,现在腿都麻了。My foot's~.我的一只脚麻了。 【辨异】 asleep与sleeping和sleepy都与睡眠有关,但有区别。asleep指睡眠的状态,仅用作pred,不用作attrib;sleeping(正睡的)可用作adj,此时用法与asleep不同,只用作attrib,如:the sleeping child(在睡觉的小孩);也可以是动词的ing分词,用于构成进行时,如:He was sleeping peacefully.(他在安祥地睡着。)(= He was peacefully asleep.他睡得很安祥。)sleepy (“困的”)的语义与上述两个不同,可用作attrib,如:the sleepy child(昏昏欲睡的小孩),也可用作pred,如:feel sleepy(觉得困)。 |
