(1)die away 指声音、风、光线等“逐渐消失”、“变弱”。
（即从最强到最弱然后到完全消失的一个逐渐变化过程。）
（英文解释： If a sound dies away, it gradually becomes weaker or fainter and finally disappears completely 如果声音变弱，它会变得更加微弱或者黯淡，最后完全消失。）

汽车的声音消失在远处。

那个声音渐渐消失，四周又恢复了寂静。
(2)die down 意为“(慢慢)逐渐平熄，减弱”、“平静下来”。
（即总情绪/程度最强烈到逐渐平静/安静下来的变化过程。）
（英文解释： If something dies down, it becomes very much quieter or less intense 如果某物/某种情绪减弱，它会变得更加平静/清净或者不是/没有那么强烈。）
The fire died down. 火慢慢熄了。

继续跟踪回答如下
A:die away主要用于“声音，光线，风”逐渐从最强到最弱，然后到完全消失的一种状态。
(die away,主要由于away,是离开，失去，消失的含义）
B:die down主要用于“情绪，某种形势或者局势”从最紧张到逐渐变弱的然后恢复到一种平静的状态“
(die down, 由down, 从高到低，从强到弱逐渐恢复平静的变化过程）
