competition in -(在……方面的競爭)

Tip: competition表示"競爭，競賽注意易與 contest混淆: contest多指不同意某個(gè)觀點(diǎn)而爭辯。尤指參賽各自獻(xiàn)技并由評(píng)判員進(jìn)行評(píng)判的比賽，較為柔性。例如：I must contest. I think you are wrong. (我必須爭辯，我認(rèn)為你錯(cuò)了。) competition泛指為了取得某方面的勝利而進(jìn)行的比賽、競爭等，所指的競爭較為劇烈和剛性，甚至帶有一些暴力。例如 He was in competition with ten others for the job. (他和其他十個(gè)人一起競爭這份工作。)。另外，competition的動(dòng)詞形式是compete，表示"競爭，對(duì)抗"用法是compete with sb. in sth. /doing sth. ，意思是和某人在某方面競爭。
