vocabulary简明 If you raise your hand, you put it up in the air. If you raise your daughter, you “bring her up” from childhood to adulthood. And, if you raise the roof, you and a crowd of people cheer wildly for a performer.
vocabulary扩展 Raise can be used almost any time you bring something up, either literally: “if you raise the lid on that trap door you will see a secret passage,” or figuratively: “please don't raise the topic of my arachnophobia.” The verb raise comes from the Old English word ræran, which means “to rear,” as in, “do you really want to raise your children in that town?” As a noun, a raise can also mean a salary increase.

    Usage Note :

    You should be careful not to confuse the verbs raise and rise. Raise is a transitive verb and usually followed by an object, whereas rise is an intransitive verb and not followed by an object. Rise can also not be used in the passive. ...the government's decision to raise prices... The number of dead is likely to rise. Both raise and rise can be used as nouns to mean pay increase. Raise is used in American English, and rise is used in British English. Millions of Americans get a pay raise today. ...a rise of at least 12 per cent.

    注意不要混淆raise与rise。raise为及物动词,通常接宾语。rise为不及物动词,不接宾语,而且不可用于被动语态。例如,the government's decision to raise prices(政府上调价格的决定),The number of dead is likely to rise (死亡人数可能会上升)。raise与rise作名词时,都可指薪水的提高。美国英语用raise, 而英国英语用rise。例如,Millions of Americans get a pay raise today(数百万美国人今天获得了加薪),a rise of at least 12 per cent(至少12%的加薪)。
