keep away和keep off的区别

They asked the spectators to keep off. 他们要观众站开些。
Danger! Keep off! 危险! 勿走近!
请看这两个例句,这里的 keep off 表示“使远离”,但 keep away 也表示“远离”,应该怎样区分呢?

1. keep off 可以不接宾语,也可以接宾语。如果不接宾语,keep off 与 keep away 意思相同,均表示“离开;远离”。例如:
Thesign says, Keep off. 牌子上写着:“请勿接近。”(《剑桥美国英语词典》p.700)
Keep away and don't upset her again. 离开她,不要再使她难过了。(《张道真高级英语词典》keep 词条)
2. 当 keep off 后接宾语时,相当于 keep away from。例如:
You must keep away from the road. 你必须避开公路。(《张道真高级英语词典》keep 词条)
Keep off the grass. 不要踩踏草地。(《张道真高级英语词典》keep 词条) 
3. keep A off B 的意思是“使 A 离开 B ”,例如:
Keep your hands off that wet paint! 油漆未干,请勿触摸 !(《张道真高级英语词典》keep 词条)

keep away 中的 away 是副词,keep off 中的 off 既可以用作副词,也可以用作介词。
1. 当 off 用作副词时,keep off 与 keep away 意思相同,均表示“离开;远离”。例如:
Both of you, keep away.
Keep off, you plague rats!
2. 当 off 用作介词时,keep off 后可接宾语,此时该短语相当于 keep away from。例如:
You keep away from her horses, understand?
I decided to keep away from them.
Sometimes we made shelters with leaves and branches to keep off the rain.
