Do not confuse deny and refuse. If you deny something, you say that it is not true. The allegation was denied by government spokesmen. If someone denies you something, they do not allow you to have it. I never denied her anything. If you refuse to do something, you deliberately do not do it, or you say firmly that you will not do it. ...people who refuse to change their opinions... He refused to condemn them. You can refuse something that someone offers you. The patient has the right to refuse treatment. If someone does not allow you to have something you ask for, or to do something you have asked to do, you can say that they refuse you. He can run to Dad for money if I refuse him.
不要混淆 deny 和 refuse。deny 表示否认某事属实：The allegation was denied by government spokesmen (政府发言人否认了这一指控)。deny 亦表示拒绝给予某人某物：I never denied her anything (我对她百依百顺)。refuse 表示有意不做或坚决表示不做某事：people who refuse to change their opinions (拒绝改变看法的人)，He refused to condemn them (他拒绝谴责他们)。refuse 亦表示拒绝接受别人主动给予的东西：The patient has the right to refuse treatment (病人有权拒绝接受治疗)。refuse还可表示拒绝给予某人其所要之物或不允许某人做其想做之事：He can run to Dad for money if I refuse him (如果我不给他钱，他可以跑到爸爸那儿去要)。
