在英语里up的用途极为广泛;它是副词虚助词,也是介词,词义不止一个。
下面是up的六项主要用途:
一、作副词或介词,表示向上,如:
(1) The monkey climbed up the tree.
(2) Two boys helped the old man up.
(3) I cant hear you. Can you please speak up?
二、作副词或介词,意思由远处到近处、由南到北、由小地方到大地方,如:
(4) The dog-trainer led the dogs up the street.
(5) We would like to go up to town.

四、可有可无的up,如:
