释义
question/problem     

【问】 下面是《英语难题解答400则)第259条问答(P.175):

“问[259]在改86年全国统考研究生英语试卷时,我觉得第70题的标准答案似乎有误,题目是:昨晚如果他来了,问题也许已得到解决。标准答案为If he had come yester-day evening,the question might have been solved.对于标准答案把“问题”一词选用了question,并和solved搭配,我表示质疑。一般我们应用problem,这样和solve搭配才对。和question搭配的动词一般应为answer,decide也可以,但我从未见过用solve和question搭配的,是否我少见多怪了,望赐教。

[答]我认为应当按照你的看法写:If he had come yesterday evening,the problem mighthave been solved. 比较:If he had come yesterday evening,the difficult question about thesubtle differences between “disappointed in” and“disappointed at”and“disappointed with”might have been answered.导致错误的原因在于汉语“问题”一词可以英译为question,problem,issue,point,subject,etc.究竟要用哪一个词要看句子(或一段)上下文才能决定选择。在一些人的思维中,以上几个不同的词统统由question包办代替!因此他们写的句子是questionable!”

你是否同意问者和答者的说法?

【答】 问者和答者提出将标准答案中的the question改为the problem,我并不反对。但是,他们说question与solve不能搭配,我却不敢苟同。实际上,question与solve是经常搭配使用的。例如:

1. How are we going to solve the questions put forward?

我们打算如何解决提出来的问题呢?

2. I think I've managed to solve the question of what to buy my mother for her birthday.

(Chambers Universal Learners Dictionary,P. 707)

我认为我已解决了给妈妈买什么东西来作生日礼物的问题。

3. properly solve a question(《新英和活用大辞典》,P.1024)

用适当方法解决问题

4. to treat [to solve]a question (New English-Russian Dictionary,P. 286)

研究[解决]问题
