Question

duel n.决斗；斗争v.决斗；斗争 (1) 威廉先生向这位年轻人提出要求与他决斗。(2) 威廉先生向这位年轻人提出要求与他决斗。 The classic definition of a duel is the kind that happens all the time in Shakespeare plays: two men clanking swords together in a battle to the death over some issue of honor or betrayal. Today, the word duel can be used to talk about any kind of contest or struggle — like a duel between political candidates. The word duel can be traced back to both duo, Latin for "two," and also duellum, which means "war."
