contend的基本意思是非敵意、平等地“爭”,其對手一般是人而不是物,其手段是“文爭”而不是“武斗”,其性質僅限于競爭而不是敵意,其目的僅限于制服而不是打敗。本詞強調為取勝而付出艱苦努力的必要性及緊張程度,引申可表示“聲稱”“主張”。
contend作“競爭”解時是不及物動詞,接介詞about或over表示“為…爭吵或爭奪”; 接介詞against表示“與…斗爭或競爭”; 接介詞for表示“為獲得…而競爭”; 接介詞with表示“應付,對付”。
contend作“聲稱”“主張”解時是及物動詞,接that從句作賓語。
v.(動詞)contend, compete, contest
這組詞的共同意思是“爭論,競爭”。其區別在于:
compete指在體育或辯論等需競爭的活動中,為征服或取勝而進行的努力,有時暗示在獎賞的鼓勵或刺激下進行競爭; 而contend暗示競爭的緊張程度,通常指雙方成功的機會相等,所以,為取勝或征服對方,就需要艱苦的努力,強調奮斗或斗爭的必要性; contest則指在競爭中毫無保留地展示自己,比如在總統競選中,雙方盡力展示自己的優勢,以戰勝對方。
