大家好,本期要和大家分享的一组近义词是:
demand、request、require、expect、insist、ask
注:These words all mean to say that sb should do or have sth. 以上各词均含要求之义。下面一起来看看他们有什么区别吧:
demand解释:to ask for sth very firmly; to say very firmly that sb should have or do sth 指强烈要求、坚决要求。
例句:She demanded an immediate explanation.她要求立即作出解释。
request解释:~ sth (from sb) ( formal ) to ask for sth or ask sb to do sth in a polite or formal way (正式或礼貌地)请求,要求
例句:You are requested not to smoke in the restaurant. 请不要在餐馆里吸烟。
require解释:[often passive] ( rather formal ) to make sb do or have sth, especially because it is necessary according to a law or set of rules or standards 指要求做(某事)、达到(某水平),尤指根据法规或规定
例句:All candidates will be required to take a short test.所有候选者都要参加一个小测验。
expect解释:to demand that sb should do, have or be sth, especially because it is their duty or responsibility 指要求、认为应得、指望,尤因义务或责任

ask解释:to expect or demand sth 指期望、要求
例句:You're asking too much of him.你对他要求过分了。
用demand、expect还是ask?Ask is not as strong as demand or expect , both of which can be more like a command. ask不如demand和expect语气强烈,demand和expect更像命令。
