用法辨析

n. (名词)

track用作名词可以指人、动物、车辆等行走后留下的“踪迹,痕迹,足迹”(此时常用于复数形式),也可指其行走后所造成的“路,小径”,还可指风暴、彗星等的“移动路径或轨迹”。
track还可作“(火车的)轨道”“站台”“跑道”“轮带,履带”“唱片的一段录音”“(声)道”“滑道〔轨〕”等解,有时还可引申指“行为的方式”或“人生的常道”。track作“跑道”解时,在句中常用作定语。
(hard) on sb's track〔on the track of〕的意思是“追踪〔寻找〕某人,寻找某物”,指“追踪〔寻找〕某人”时,这两种表达方式均可; 指“寻找某物”时,则一般只用on the track of sth 结构。

v. (动词)

track用作名词时意思是“足迹,痕迹”,转化成动词意思是“追踪,尾随”,指偷偷地跟在某人或某物的后边而不被发现,从而寻找某人或某物的所在地,强调跟踪这一过程而不强调跟踪的结果,常含有“搜索”的意味。引申可指“踩在…上”。
