- drive home argumentsASSOCIATIONS AND IMAGERY:Существительное argument образно ассоциируется с борьбой двух противостоящих партнеров, пытающихся в словесной борьбе доказать свою правоту и отстоять свою позицию. Образ такой борьбы, при сохранении общего значения приведения доводов и доказательст, в более явной форме проявляется в ряде словосочетаний, таких как: They have again crossed swords over this problem. Они вновь скрестили шпаги по поводу этого вопроса. John was always the first to lead her defence. Джон всегда первым бросался на защиту ее идей. We did battle over who to appoint to this post. Мы немало повоевали по вопросу о том, кого назначить на этот пост. We had a big fight over this decision last night. Вчера вечером у нас был настоящий бой из-за этого решения. He realized that he had to change his line of attack if he wanted to be successful. Он понимал, что, если он хочет добиться успеха, ему надо сменить свою тактику наступления. She tried to defend herself against his attacks. Она пыталась защищаться от его нападок. She shot down all his arguments. Она разбила все его доводы. It was an indefensible point of view. Эту точку зрения нельзя было защищать. /Защита этой точки зрения была обречена на провал. There was a lot of conflict over what to do next. По поводу дальнейших действий разгорелся настоящий конфликт. They clashed over who should go. Они сцепились по поводу того, кому из них ехать. It was a real battle of wits. Это было настоящее состязание в остроумии. /Это была настоящая борьба умов -
