leaf的基本意思是“树叶”,指生长于植物的枝杈之上的植物的一部分;也可指书本的一“页”或桌子的“折面或活面”。leaf还可指一种特殊的“金属薄片,金箔”。

leaves作“树叶”解时,其后可接on来表示“在树上的叶子”,而不接of。

come into leaf和in leaf中的leaf都用单数形式。

leaf偶尔也可用作动词,与together连用,表示“匆匆阅读”。例如:Waiting to see the doctor,Jim was too nervous to read properly, so he just leafed through some old magazines that were kept in the waiting room.吉姆在等医生看病时,紧张得无法看书,所以只是翻翻放在候诊室的几本旧杂志。
