例句:

二、詞義辨析:


answer,reply,respond,retort,return

這些動(dòng)詞均有“回答”之意。 answer常用詞,指用書面、口頭或行動(dòng)對(duì)他人的請(qǐng)求、詢問(wèn)、質(zhì)問(wèn)等作出回答或反應(yīng)。 reply較正式用詞,較少用于口語(yǔ)。側(cè)重經(jīng)過(guò)考慮的較正式答復(fù)。 respond正式用詞,指即刻的,以口頭或行動(dòng)對(duì)外來(lái)的號(hào)召、請(qǐng)求或刺激等作出回答或響應(yīng)。 retort指對(duì)不同意見(jiàn)、批評(píng)或控訴作出迅速、有力的回答,即“反駁”。 return正式用詞,從本義“歸來(lái),回去”引申作“回答、答辨”講時(shí),含反駁或反唇相譏之意。
