Competition is a slightly more general word and can involve teams, groups or individuals competing. A contest is more often between a small number of individuals who are competing against each other to win a prize. In British English, competition, but not contest can describe an event that a large number of people enter by post or telephone, including events in which sb wins more by luck than by talent or skill, for example by being the first person to have their name picked out of a hat. 这两个词均可指体育比赛，或展示才能或知识的竞赛，如表演、艺术或写作等。competition比contest含义略广，可指小组、团体或个人之间的竞赛。contest较常指为数不多的参赛者竞逐奖项的比赛。在英式英语中，指许多人寄信或打电话参加的抽奖或竞猜活动用competition，而不用contest。这些活动很多是靠运气而非才能或技巧获胜，如谁的名字第一个从帽子里抽出来就赢◆Competition: to win an Oxford Mini car, customers must guess how many copies of the Oxford Minidictionary will fit into the car.有奖竞猜：想赢得牛津迷你车，顾客必须猜出车里能放多少本牛津迷你词典。However, in American English, contest can also be used in this way. 但在美式英语中，contest也可这样用◆To enter the contest, simply send an email to this address...要参加比赛，只须发送电邮至以下地址⋯   see also contestant ⇨ participant ■ quiz (plural quizzes) [countable] a competition or game in which people try to answer questions to test their knowledge 知识竞赛；智力游戏◆I'm useless at general knowledge quizzes.我在常识问答竞赛方面很差劲。◆He's the host of a popular TV quiz show.他是一档颇受欢迎的电视问答游戏节目的主持人。◆The club has weekly quiz nights.这家俱乐部每周举行一次猜谜之夜的活动。competition2

However, contest usually refers to the election itself and sometimes the two or three weeks of campaigning just before it; race covers the whole period of campaigning for an election which can last months, especially in the case of US presidential elections. You can say that sb wins/loses a race/contest and that sb leads/is ahead in the race for sth but not usually that sb 'leads/is ahead in the contest for sth'. Race, but not contest can also be used to talk about the drive to achieve sth, especially before anyone else has achieved it. 这两个词均可用于政治选举，在许多情况下可以通用。不过，contest通常指选举本身，有时也指选举前两三周的竞选活动。race包括整个竞选期间，可以持续几个月，尤其是美国的总统选举。可以说某人win/lose a race/contest（在竞争中获胜／落败），以及lead/be ahead in the race for sth（在⋯的角逐中领先），但通常不说lead/be ahead in the contest for sth。race，而非contest，还可指为达到某一目的而进行的努力，尤其是赶在在其他人之前。■ rivalry ˈraɪvlri [countable, uncountable] a situation in which two people, teams, groups or companies, are competing for the same thing 竞争；竞赛；较量◆Bitter ethnic rivalries within the region have grown.激烈的族群冲突在这一地区滋长。◆There is a certain amount of friendly rivalry between the teams.两队间有某种程度上的友好较量。◆Her parents had been very aware of the problems of sibling rivalry (= between brothers and sisters) before the younger child was born.在较小的孩子出生前她的父母就已经清楚地意识到手足相争的问题。NOTE 辨析 Competition or rivalry?In this meaning competition is used most often in the context of business; rivalry is used more in the contexts of politics, sport and personal relationships. 表达此义时，competition最常指商业竞争，而rivalry则多指政治、体育和人际关系上的竞争。■ competitiveness kəmˈpetətɪvnəs [singular, uncountable] the feeling of being in competition with sb/sth for sb/sth; how well sb/sth competes 竞争意识；竞争力◆Jenny brings a fierce competitiveness to the team.珍妮将强烈的竞争意识带入团队。◆The move is an attempt to improve the competitiveness of British industry.此举试图提升英国工业的竞争力。▸ competitive

adjective

◆It's a fiercely competitive market.这是一个竞争激烈的市场。
