You say that a person drops when they jump straight down from something, for example, when someone jumps from a plane using a parachute. If someone falls it is usually because of an accident.

A fall is what happens when someone has an accident. I had been badly bruised by the fall.
      不要混淆 drop 和 fall。二者均可指东西无意中掉落, 但是fall 不可接宾语，所以不可说someone falls something，却可说they drop something或者somehting drops。如，Leaves were falling to the ground（树叶落到了地上），He dropped his cigar（他扔掉了雪茄），Plate after plate dropped from his fingers（盘子一个接一个地从他指间掉落）。drop 还可指人从某物上跳下, 例如从飞机上跳伞。fall 指人时, 通常指人意外摔倒。如，He stumbled and fell（他绊了一下, 摔倒了）。drop 和 fall 均可用作名词。drop 作名词可指某人想象中物体降落的高度：Sixteen hundred feet is a considerable drop（1, 600 英尺是非常高的垂直距离了）。fall 指意外的跌落：I had been badly bruised by the fall（我摔得鼻青脸肿）。
