二、词义辨析：

blame,accuse,condemn,scold,denounce,reproach,rebuke

这些动词均含有“责备，非难”之意。blame普通用词，语气较弱，仅是一般的责难、归咎于，不含用语言责骂之意。accuse语气比blame强，本义为归罪，可用作指非难或谴责之义。condemn正式用词，表示谴责，有较强的司法意味，侧重从道义或原则上的谴责。scold普通用词，多指上级对下级、长辈对后辈或雇主对雇员的态度粗暴、言词激烈的数落。denounce与condemn同义，但着重公开性。reproach侧重指因他人粗心、自私等引起不满而去指责、找岔。rebuke多指上级对下级进行的公开、强烈、严正而不宽容的责备。隐含一定权威的意味。
