1 down: To 'fall down' means to drop or descend from a higher to lower position. Example: The farmer caught his foot on a rock and fell down the hill. Jean tells Kevin that he hurt himself whilst falling from the top of the stairs to the bottom. 'Down' is used here in one of its primary senses: descending from a higher location to a lower location.
2 up: To 'get up' from bed means to rise from it. Jean was disturbed whilst sleeping, and so he 'rose' or 'got out of his bed' to investigate the noise. In this expression, 'up' is used in one of its primary senses: to indicate vertical movement to an elevated position (other examples: stand up, rise up, sit up).
3 up: 'To be woken up' (from the active voice expression 'to wake up') means to be disturbed whilst sleeping, so that one 'awakens', or no longer sleeps. Jean was 'woken up' in the middle of the night by a noise in his house. In this expression, 'up' is used in one of its primary senses: to indicate vertical movement to an elevated position (other examples: stand up, rise up, sit up).
