earth / ground , go to ~: run to ~/~— 278 这两个短语动词意义大不相同: go to earth / ground 作“身藏地下”讲,而 run to earth / ground 则是“找到”的意思,是及物的。 例如: The police believe the murderer has gone to earth somewhere in London. 警察们相信这个凶手已在伦敦什么地方躲藏起来了。 He is not in the office and eventually I ran him to ground in the lavatory. 他不在办公室里,我果然在厕所里找到了他。
