n.(名词)

out of question, out of the question

这二者意义迥然不同：out of question通常指“毫无疑问”; out of the question 意指“不可能的”“办不到的”“不必谈的”。例如:

I'm sure your success is out of question.我相信你成功是毫无问题的。

To build a tunnel from England to America is out of the question.从英国建一条隧道通到美国是根本不可能的。

question, problem

这两个词都有“问题”的意思。其区别是：

question是一般的问题,较为常用,往往需要对方答复; problem指要解答的、须解决的或供讨论的问题,也可指难以处理的问题,还可指数学习题。例如:

The students asked a lot of questions.学生们问了许多问题。

We can't go out in this weather; it's out of the question.这样的天气我们不能出去,根本不要提出去的事吧。

下面的句子可有两种相反的解释:

There is no question of his deep and last- ing love for his wife.

他绝不会对他的妻子有深厚而永久的 爱情。

毫无疑问他对妻子有深厚而永久的爱 情。

此用法易引起误会,应避免使用。

v.(动词)

question about, question on

这两个短语都用于表示询问的内容。on的宾语一般是较集中的,而about的宾语则相对广泛些。另外question on多用于“提问”,而question about多用于“询问”“盘问”。

question, ask, inquire, interrogate, query

这组词都有“问,询问”之意。其区别是：

ask是最常用词,指对不了解的事情提出问题,并期望得到答复,常用在口语中,例如：

Did you ask him his name and address?你问他的姓名和地址了吗?

inquire多用作书面语,比ask正式,常译作“询问,调查”,指为得到某人或某物的真实确切情况而详细“询问”,但不一定要有被问者,例如：

The police are trying to inquire into the cause of his death.警察正在设法查出他的死因。

question指对某人或某物主动提出问题,以便了解详细情况,意思为“提出,质问”,含有审问的意思,例如：

The prisoner was questioned by the police.犯人被警察所质问。

interrogate意为“盘问,提问题”,多指为了某种特殊目的,希望把一切搞清楚而进行的有条理的询问,可与question互换,例如：

The lawyer took a long time to interrogate the witness fully.律师花了很长的时间来彻底地盘问证人。

query作“质问”或“提出疑问”解,这种“质问”多指向自己的上级或有权势的人提出的质问,目的在于消除疑问,例如：

They queried the President about his intentions.他们对总统的想法提出了疑问。

ask，demand，inquire，question

这些动词均含有“问，询问”之意。

ask最普通用词，可与demand, inquire和question换用，但ask用于口语中，指提出问题让人回答。

demand指根据自己的权利、职责或身份认为有必要弄清情况而正式发问，常隐含命令对方回答的意味。

inquire较正式用词，指为得到真实情况而详细询问或调查了解。

question指因感到可疑或为了解情况，弄清究竟而发问，有时指一连串的发问。

problem，question，issue，matter

这些名词均含“问题”之意。

problem指客观上存在的、难以处理或难以理解的问题。

question通常指用口头或书面提出来要求回答或有待讨论解决的问题。

issue多指意见能达到一致的问题，但要通过争论或讨论解决。

matter含义不很具体，暗示人们考虑和关心的事和话题。

n.(名词)

他们提的条件是不可能考虑的。

误 The conditions set by them are out of question.

正 The conditions set by them are out of the question.

析 out of the question表示“完全不可能的”, out of question含义与前者相反,表示“毫无疑问”。

我想问您一个问题。

误 I'd like to ask you a problem.

正 I'd like to ask you a question.

你做那件事前碰到什么问题了吗?

误 Did you encounter any question in doing that?

正 Did you encounter any problem in doing that?

析 problem通常指“困难,障碍”; 而question常指“疑问”。

他向我提了一个问题。

误 He asked a question from me.

正 He asked a question of me.

正 He asked me a question.

析 表示“向某人提问题”,应该说 ask sb a question或 ask a question of sb,但不能说 ask a question from sb。
