  • Columbus argued that the world was round.哥伦布论证了地球是圆的。
  • They debated whether or not they should go to the movies.他们为是否该去看电影展开辩论。
  • Jack disputed Bill's statement that he was a faster swimmer.贝尔自称游泳快,杰克就此与贝尔争论不休。
  • argue, quarrel

  • He hated to have quarrelled with her. 他后悔跟她吵架。
  • I argued with her about politics all day.就政见我和她争辩了一整天。
  • 下面三个句子含义相同:
  • His action argues his honesty.
  • His action argues that he is an honest man.
  • His action argues him (to be) an honest man.
  • 他的行为说明他是个诚实的人。
  • argue,quarrel,debate,dispute,discuss,reason
  • 这些动词均含“辩论,争论,说理”之意。

  • quarrel指两人之间或两个团体之间不友好的、吵吵嚷嚷地大声争论某事,尤指“吵嘴、吵架”。
  • debate侧重指意见等对立的双方之间正式或公开的争辩。
  • dispute侧重对分歧进行激烈或热烈的争论或争辩,带一定感情色彩,常隐含“各持已见”或“争论不休”意味。
  • discuss最常用词,指就某一或某些问题表明观点、看法等,以便统一认识,解决问题。
  • reason指据理力争以说服对方或求得对问题作更深入的研究。
