词语辨析
defeat,conquer,overcome,win。
这组词都可以表示“获胜”“打败”。它们的区别是win表示“获胜”“赢得”,指在竞赛或战斗中击败对方,宾语一般是战役或胜利等;conquer表示“征服”,此词应用范围很广,既可指靠武力或精神道德方面的力量使对方屈服,又可指在排除障碍和阻力后取得胜利,该词强调的不仅是击败对方,而且还包括使对方就范;defeat应用范围也很广,但不像conquer那样含有彻底击败或征服的意思,而是强调暂时的胜利;overcome的意思是“克服”“战胜”,既可用于战斗或任何竞赛,又可用于感情、习惯等方面,强调压倒或胜过。例如There has been a tremendous international effort to conquer cancer.全世界已作出了巨大努力来征服癌症。They acknowledged having been defeated.他们承认被打败了。We have the courage to overcome difficulties.我们有战胜困难的勇气。defeat of,defeat by。defeat of表示主动意义的战胜,of表示动宾关系;defeat by表示被动意义的战胜,by引出行动主体。试比较That was regarded as an Iranian defeat of Iraq.人们认为那是伊朗挫败了伊拉克。That was regarded as an Iranian defeat by Iraq.人们认为那是伊朗被伊拉克挫败。conquer,overcome,overthrow,defeat,beat,subdue。
这些动词均含“征服,战胜”的意思。conquer侧重战胜和控制。书面用词。overcome多指战胜或克服非物质的东西,如困难和不良习惯等。语气较弱也可指在斗争或竞争中战胜或压倒对方。overthrow指彻底击败对手,使其丧失力量和地位。defeat普通用词,多指在战争、比赛、竞选或辩论中战胜对手,侧重胜利的暂时性。beat口笔语均可用,可与defeat换用。subdue正式用词,与conquer同义,但强调失败后的臣服状态;也可用作借喻,表克制、压抑感情、欲望等。
