  • 词义辨析

    float, drift

    这两个词都可表示“漂浮”,前者可动也可不动,后者只指“漂动”。试比较:
    The logs float on the river.
    圆木在河上漂浮着。
    The logs floated down the river.
    圆木沿河流而下。
    The logs drifted down the river.
    圆木沿河流而下。

    drift,float

    这两个动词均有“漂流,漂浮”之意。
    drift多指随风或顺水飘荡,表示动态。
    float可与drift换用,但侧重指因有液体或气体所支持而不下沉,可表动态或静态。
