Section I 课前准备、听力、口语
1. Deny your father, and refuse your name… 否认你的父亲，拒绝你的名字。(p.65 Warming up )
▲ deny (denied，denying)
(1) vt. 否认，不承认Can you deny the truth of his statement? 你能否认他的声明的真实性吗? He denied telling me／that he had told me. 他否认告诉过我。
注意：deny后跟动名词或跟宾语从句作宾语。

(3) vt. (正式)抛弃；背弃He has denied his country and his principles! 他背弃了他的国家和他的原则1
▲ refuse (refused，refusing)
(1) vt. 拒绝；不接受；不肯He asked her to marry him, but she refused (to marry him). 他向她求婚，但是她拒绝了。She refused his offer. 她不接受他的求婚。
(2) refuse还可跟动词不定式构成refuse +to do；也可用于被动结构。She refused to go home. 她不回家。They were refused admittance. 他们被拒绝入内。
(3) vi. 拒绝 He can't refuse if you ask politely. 你如果礼貌地请求，他是不会拒绝的。
注意：refuse只接不定式，不接动名词，不接不定式的复合宾语结构，也不接宾语从句，如：不说，He refused me to go (going) there. 而应说：He didn't allow me to go there 或 He refused to let me go. 他不让我去那儿。
辨析：refuse与reject
refuse和reject都有“拒绝”的意思，有时可以通用，有时用法又不同。refuse强调坚定地拒绝，后可接动词不定式。reject强调当前拒绝对方的请求、提议的情况，一般后面不接动词不定式。如：He refused to speak at the meeting. 他拒绝在会上发言。He rejected my request. 他当面拒绝了我的要求。
