深入理解:用法、语法与易错点
用法说明
这个短语用来表示某事物发展得非常快,而且进步或增长的幅度也很大。
它强调的不是一般性的“变快了一点”,而是那种速度快、幅度大、变化明显的进展。
这个表达常用于描述:
- 经济快速发展
- 科技迅猛进步
- 某个行业迅速扩张
- 某种能力、水平、效率明显提升
- 某类数据、数量或影响力快速增长
它比普通的 quickly、rapidly 更有画面感,也更适合用来写“突飞猛进”的发展状态。
语境复现
基础句:
- Technology is advancing by leaps and bounds.
提升句:
- Over the past decade, renewable energy has grown by leaps and bounds.
应用句:
- With stronger computing power and wider public use, AI has developed in leaps and bounds over the past few years.
对应译文
- 科技正在突飞猛进地发展。
- 在过去十年里,可再生能源实现了飞速增长。
- 随着算力增强和公众使用范围扩大,人工智能在过去几年里取得了突飞猛进的发展。
语法与搭配
这个短语通常作状语使用,常见位置是放在动词后面,修饰“增长、发展、进步”这类动作。
常见结构:
- grow by leaps and bounds
- The industry is growing by leaps and bounds.
- develop by / in leaps and bounds
- Digital technology has developed by leaps and bounds.
- advance by / in leaps and bounds
- Medical research is advancing in leaps and bounds.
- improve by / in leaps and bounds
- Her English has improved by leaps and bounds.
常见搭配动词:
- grow
- develop
- progress
- advance
- improve
- expand
说明:
- by leaps and bounds 和 in leaps and bounds 都对,但现代常见表达里 by leaps and bounds 更常见。
- 这个短语通常用来描述积极或中性的快速发展。
- 很适合和现在完成时、现在进行时连用,突出“这段时间发展很快”。
易错提醒
- 这个短语强调的是“快速而显著地发展”,所以不适合用于变化很小的场景。
- 它通常搭配表示“发展、增长、进步”的动词,不太适合和所有动词乱搭。
- by leaps and bounds 更常见,建议优先记这个版本。
- 不要把它误用成单纯表示“快”,它还包含“幅度很大”的意思。
近义表达与区别
- rapidly
- at a remarkable pace
- make rapid progress
- grow dramatically
细微区别:
- by / in leaps and bounds 最有画面感,强调“突飞猛进、幅度很大”。
- rapidly 最通用,只表示“快速地”。
- at a remarkable pace 更正式,强调“以惊人的速度”。
- make rapid progress 更常用于人、学习或项目进展。
- grow dramatically 强调“大幅增长”,但不如 by leaps and bounds 生动。

深入理解:用法、语法与易错点
用法说明
这个短语用来表示某个人、机构、国家、企业或组织在某项行动、改革、创新或发展中率先开始,或者最积极地推进。

语法与搭配
这个短语通常用于以下结构:
take the lead in + 名词 / 动名词

常见搭配对象:
- developing technology
- promoting reform

说明:
lead 在这里是名词,不是动词,所以是:
- take the lead in不是直接 take lead in。
后面接动名词时很常见:
- take the lead in improving
- take the lead in building
这个短语既能表示“第一个做”,也能表示“最积极地推进”。
易错提醒
- 固定搭配是 take the lead in,中间的 the 不能漏。
- 后面通常接名词或动名词:
- √ take the lead in promoting reform
- × take the lead to promote reform
- 它强调“领先行动”,不只是“做了某事”。
- 很适合用于国家、公司、学校、政府等主体。
- 与 lead the way 意思接近,但 take the lead in 更适合直接接具体动作。
近义表达与区别
- lead the way in doing sth.
- be at the forefront of sth.
- play a leading role in sth.
- set the pace
细微区别:
- take the lead in doing sth. 强调“率先行动、带头去做”。

- be at the forefront of sth. 更强调“处于前沿位置”。
- play a leading role in sth. 更强调“在过程中起主导作用”。
