标题: 大全Section C-1 discriminate搭配用法(between/from)
1.After a few weeks’ experience, apprentice jewelers can usually begin to discriminate, though not with absolute certainty, genuine diamonds from imitation diamonds.
(A) genuine diamonds from imitation diamonds
(B) genuine diamonds apart from imitations
(C) between genuine diamonds and imitation diamonds
(D) among genuine diamonds and imitation diamonds（C）
(E) whether diamonds are imitation or genuine

这道题为什么选C不选A呢？词典里关于discriminate的用法就是discriminate A from B。比如：
The ability to think discriminates humans from other animals.

标题: c答案...
1.After a few weeks’ experience, apprentice jewelers can usually begin to discriminate, though not with absolute certainty, genuine diamonds from imitation diamonds.
(A) genuine diamonds from imitation diamonds
(B) genuine diamonds apart from imitations
(C) between genuine diamonds and imitation diamonds
(D) among genuine diamonds and imitation diamonds（C）
(E) whether diamonds are imitation or genuine

discriminate between A and B
A答案如果是from imitation diamonds,就变成了geniune diamonds包含在imitation diamonds里面了。。不合逻辑呢...

标题: 补充一下
discriminate human from other animals...因为human也包含在animal种类里面（汗..）
所以是对的....

上了下老美的网站，发现也有这个题目，他们有人是这么解释的：
The idiom "distinguish between x and y" is used to describe 2 different things.
Eg: The blind cannot distinguish between the colour green and red.

The idiom "distinguish x from y" is used for 2 similar things.
Eg: Only experts can distinguish the original mona lisa from a fake one.
In our question, the 2 diamonds are similar items, so it is "distinguish x from y"
Please tell me... between is for similarity or what?

另外。。。这些题目做下来发现凡是表示区别，通常用between比较多
不知是否正确，请NN指教。。。

呵呵，ls似乎把discriminate看成了distinguish。我估计他们两个在使用上有细微的含义不同吧（就像compare ... to ... 与compare ... with ...的那种区别），只是找不到什么依据所以全是猜测。

查词典(词霸在线词典)的话两种用法都能看到：

discriminate from

1.找〔分辨〕出…与…之间的细微区别
How can he discriminate the real painting from the false one?
他怎么能把真画和假画分辨出来呢?
2.指〔显示〕出…与…之间的区别; 将…与…区别开
The boy is too young to discriminate good books from bad ones.
这孩子太小, 分不清好书和坏书。
The two brothers are so much alike; it is difficult to discriminate one from the other.
这两兄弟太相像了, 很难识别他们。

discriminate between

1.找出…之间的微小区别; 对…进行分辨
You must learn to discriminate between facts and opinions.
你必须学会把事实和看法区分出来。
He is the connoisseur who can discriminate between two equally fine wines.
他是一个能够鉴别两种同等好酒的行家。
2.对…待遇不公
A teacher must not discriminate between pupils.
老师对学生应当一视同仁。

discriminate human from other animals...因为human也包含在animal种类里面（汗..）
所以是对的....

这个。。。我的例句里已经考虑到这个问题了，所以是other animals。

其他discriminate 和distinguish 的有些类似了，当他们在与From连接构成词组的时候，需要区分的对象是属于同一类别的；如前面所举例的一样；
当用作discirminate between...and...的时候，比较的对象是不同类的

楼主可以去试着找一些例子来举一反三看看哈

同意。。。因为distinguish 和discriminate都包含这两种结构，而且老美好像是把这两个词放在一起讨论的，应该差异不大。。。

我觉得把，按照常规，是从真钻石中挑假的，而不是在假的里挑真的， DISCRIMINATE A FROM B是从B中挑A，不符合常规。所以选BETWEEN咯~、
