*TRANSITIVE AND INTRANSITIVE VERBS*
The difference between the verbs "to raise" and "to rise" is that the verb "to raise" is transitive, that is, the action of the verb passes from the subject, through the verb, to the object For example, "I (subject) am raising (verb) the book (object)."
Whereas, the verb "to rise" is intransitive, which means that the action of the verb finishes with itself and does not pass to an object For example, "I am rising (from the chair)."

SENTENCE STRUCTURED:
-The difference between a transitive and an intransitive verb is that, with a transitive verb, the action passes from the subject, through the verb, to the object; whereas, with an intransitive verb, the action of the verb finishes with itself and does not pass to an object.

Trains don't always arrive when they are due because of bad weather or accidents etc.
When a man is rich, I think it's due to the fact that he's more intelligent than most other men.

DO YOU THINK THAT PASSING EXAMS IS MOSTLY A QUESTION OF LUCK ?

To discuss something usually means that we wish to examine a particular subject
In a discussion people may perhaps disagree with each other, but the discussion seldom becomes unpleasant.
When we argue with someone, it means that we don't agree with what they say, and often the argument can become a little unpleasant.
A quarrel, on the other hand, is definitely unpleasant, and can finish with both sides shouting at each other.
Therefore, we could say that two people could begin by quietly discussing a subject, the discussion could then develop into an argument, and the argument could finish in a quarrel.
People argue because some people always disagree with everything other people say. It is often in their nature to do so. Other people like to give their opinion on every single matter. Others like to learn by argument etc.
People quarrel, basically perhaps, because they do not like the other person or his opinions.
Another meaning of the verb "to argue" is "to reason". For example, "He argues that he had not done the job, because he had not had sufficient time", or, His argument for not having done the job was that he had not had sufficient time".
I argue to return home early because I feel bad.
