Campaigning often involves such activities as making speeches, putting advertisements in newspapers and writing to members of the government. The aim is often to persuade people that a political or social change is needed or a practice needs to be stopped. You can fight for social or political change too, but this word is also used to talk about achieving justice for yourself, for example gaining the right to do sth. The emphasis with fight is on the determination sb shows to achieve sth. * campaign常涉及发表演讲、在报纸上刊登广告、致信政府人员等活动，目的是使他人意识到进行某项政治或社会变革，或停止某种做法的必要性。fight也可以指为了社会或政治变革而战，但亦指为争取个人公正待遇而斗争，如争取做某事的权利。 fight强调某人达成目标表现出的决心。■ lobby [intransitive, transitive] to try to influence a politician or the government and, for example, persuade them to support or oppose a change in the law 游说（从政者或政府）◆Teachers have lobbied hard against education cuts.教师极力游说反对削减教育经费。◆Farmers will lobby Congress for higher subsidies.农民将游说国会提高补贴。 see also lobby ⇨ party noun 1 ■ work [intransitive] to try hard to achieve sth, especially over a period of time and in a way that involves acting together with other people 争取，力争（尤指和他人共同行动一段时间）◆She dedicated her life to working for peace.她为争取和平奉献了自己的一生。◆The police and public need to work together to combat crime.警民需要携手打击犯罪。■ agitate / /ˈædʒɪteɪt/ / [intransitive] (rather formal) to argue strongly for sth that you want, especially changes in the law or social conditions 激烈争论，鼓动，煽动（尤指为了法律或社会状况的改变）◆Some militant groups have been agitating for autonomy for the region.一些激进团体一直在煽动该地区自治。 see also agitation ⇨ trouble 1 |
