Suppress is the most general word. It can refer to stopping a range of different groups or activities, using different degrees of force from political pressure to physical violence. Quell usually refers to stopping violence, protests, riots, etc. This can be political protests or opposition, or other violence, such as football hooligans. Crush and put down both refer to using force to stop either opposition or protests and riots. Crush suggests the use of particularly violent methods and is used especially in journalism. Subdue is a more formal word to refer to bringing opposition under control, either with immediate action, for example by the police or army, or over a period of time. 这些词均含贬义,指不公正地使用了权力。suppress含义最广,可指不同程度地使用政治压力或武力来压制各种群体或活动;quell通常指平息暴力、抗议或骚乱等,包括政治性抗议或对抗,以及足球流氓滋事之类的其他暴力行为;crush和put down均表示使用武力镇压抗议、对抗或暴乱,crush尤用于新闻语言中,指使用特别粗暴的手段;subdue比较正式,表示把对手置于控制之中,既可指立刻采取行动,如动用警察或军队镇压,也可指行动持续一段时期。■ oppress /əˈpres/ / [transitive] (rather formal, written, disapproving) (especially of people in power) to treat sb in a cruel or unfair way, by not giving them the same rights and freedoms as other people (尤指当权者)压迫,欺压,压制◆The regime is accused of oppressing religious minorities.人们指控这个政权欺压少数宗教信徒。 see also oppression ⇨ repression ■ repress / /rɪˈpres/ / [transitive, often passive] (rather formal, written, disapproving) (of a government or the authorities) to control a group of people and restrict their freedom, especially a group who oppose or threaten authority, by using political or military force (政府或当局用政治或军事力量)压制,镇压◆The government was quick to repress any opposition.政府迅速镇压一切反对势力。 see also repression ⇨ repression NOTE 辨析 Persecute, disenfranchise, oppress or repress? Persecute is the most extreme of these verbs and refers to cruel treatment that can include harming and even killing a group of people because they are different in a way which is considered offensive by others or by those in power. People get persecuted especially because of their race, religion or political beliefs, for example the persecution of the Jews during World War II. Disenfranchise is the least emotional, most descriptive term, and means to take people's rights away, especially their right to vote. Oppress and repress lie between these two, meaning to restrict people's freedom so that they cannot express their opinions, act as they want to, challenge those in power, etc. In general people are oppressed and their activities are repressed. 这几个词中persecute最为极端,指对那些由于与众不同而被认为冒犯了别人或当权者的群体进行残酷迫害,包括伤害甚至杀戮。导致人们遭受迫害的原因尤以种族、宗教或政治信仰为主,例如第二次世界大战时对犹太人的迫害。disenfranchise最少情感色彩、最侧重客观叙述,表示剥夺某人的权利,特别是选举权。oppress和repress介于上述两词之间,表示限制人们的言论、行动以及挑战当权者的自由。通常情况下,压制人用oppress,压制行为用repress。 write1 verb Write clearly in black ink. 用黑色墨水书写清楚。write a book 写书write ♦︎ sign ♦︎ write sth down ♦︎ put sth down ♦︎ scribble ♦︎ copy ♦︎ scrawl ♦︎ transcribeThese words all mean to form letters or numbers on a surface, especially using a pen or pencil. 这些词均表示写字、书写。PATTERNS AND COLLOCATIONS 句型和搭配◆to write / sign / write sth down / put sth down / scribble / scrawl on sth◆to write / write sth down / put sth down / scribble / scrawl in sth◆to copy / transcribe sth into sth◆to write / sign / write sth down / put sth down / scribble / scrawl with sth◆to write / put / scribble / copy / scrawl sth down◆to write / copy sth out◆to write / write down / put down / scribble / copy / transcribe some notes◆to write / sign / write down / put down / scribble / scrawl your name◆to write / scribble / scrawl your signature■ write (wrote, written) [intransitive, transitive] to form letters, words or numbers on a surface such as paper, especially using a pen or pencil; to give information in writing 写字;书写;写◆I haven't got anything to write with.我没有书写用的笔。◆Please write clearly in black ink.请用黑色墨水书写清楚。◆In some countries children don't start learning to read and write until they are six.有些国家的儿童六岁才开始读书写字。◆Write your answer out again on a new sheet of paper.把答案誊写在另一张纸上。◆Anicent historians wrote of a lost continent beneath the ocean.古代史学家曾描述过一块被大海淹没的大陆。◆In his latest book he writes that the theory has since been disproved.他在最近的一本书里称这个理论已证明是错误的。◆I'll write you a receipt.我给你写个收据吧。▸ writing noun [uncountable] ◆Our son's having problems with his reading and writing.我们的儿子在读写方面有困难。◆There was writing all over the desk.书桌上到处都是字迹。◆Who's this from?
