3-47. Употребление фразовых глаголов
Фразовые глаголы могут быть переходными (при этом наречие может стоять до дополнения или после него) и непереходными. Таким образом, возможны следующие варианты.
Type I VERB + PREPOSITION + NP
Ударение обычно не падает на односложные предлоги, но часто падает на двусложные (точных правил нет). Например:
DO WITH’OUT (= manage otherwise): If there's no bread, we must do without it, that's all.
GET ‘OVER (= recover from): You've only got a slight cold. You'll get over it in a day or two.
GO FOR (= attack): Your dog suddenly went for me!
GO 'INTO (= inverstigate) The auditors have gone into our accounts and have found a few serious mistakes. These must be gone into immediately.
JUMP AT (= accept immediately): It's an offer that you won't get again, so I should jump at it if I were you.
MAKE FOR (= go towards): The ship was making straight for the rocks.
SEE ТО (= put right): This lock wasn't working this morning. Has anyone seen to it? Has it been seen to?
STAND BY (by stressed) = support: I'm your friend. I'll always stand by you.
STAND FOR (= represent): The sign + stands for 'plus'.
Type 2 VERB + ADVERB PARTICLE
Наречная частица всегда под ударением. Например:
ANSWER BACK (= argue after receiving an order or rebuke): Do what I tell you and don't answer back.
BACK DOWN (= become less aggressive): Bullies often back down when you stand up to them.
CATCH ON (= understand): I didn't understand anything at first, but now I'm beginning to catch on.
CATCH UP (= reduce the distance between oneself and those in front): George is running fourth in the race, but he's beginning to catch up (with the leaders).
COME ТО (= regain consciousness): She fainted, and it was half an hour before she came to again.
FIND OUT (= discover the truth). If you've told a lie someone is bound to find out sooner or later.
KNOCK OFF (= stop work): I'm tired. Let's knock off and have a rest.
SETTLE UP (= pay one's bill): I owe you some money. I'd like to settle up before I forget.
Type 3 VERB + OBJECT + PARTICIPLE / VERB + PARTICLE + OBJECT
Наречие находится под ударением, если оно следует за дополнением. Обычно (но не всегда) возможны два варианта: put your coat on/ put on your coat. Если в роли дополнения выступает местоимение, то возможна только такая конструкция: back me up. Обычно возможен пассив. Например:
BACK UP (= support): Always back up your friends. They like being backed up.
BEAR OUT (= confirm): The results of the experiment bear out your theory. It has been borne out by statistics.
BREAK UP (= cause to end): I don't want to break up the party, but I'm afraid I must go.
BRING UP (= educate): James was brought up by his two old aunts.
CALL OFF (= cancel): The meeting has been called off as neither side is prepared to negotiate.
HOLD UP (= stop, delay): Police held up the traffic while they searched for the escaped prisoners.
STEP UP( = increase): Production is slowing down. We must step it up.
TURN OUT (= empty): The Customs made us turn out every one of our suitcases.
Type 4 VERB + PARTICLE + PREPOSITION + NP
На наречие падает ударение. Например:
BACK OUT OF (= withdraw from): You've signed an agreement and you can't back out of it now.
BE FED UP WITH (= have had enough of): I'm fed up with your nonsense. Please stop it.
DROP OUT OF (= withdraw from): John has hurt his leg and has had to drop out of the race.
FALL IN WITH (= agree to): You can rely on me. I'll fall in with anything you suggest.
PUT UP WITH (= bear, tolerate): I don't like this noise, but I suppose we must put up with it.
STAND UP FOR (= support): Will no one stand up for me, or will you all let me down?
