Goad：驱使，煽动
11月9日，驻伊美军海军陆战队士兵在费卢杰郊外向城内开炮，并和伊拉克军队一起与反美武装人员在费卢杰城内激烈交火，目前美军正缩小对费卢杰的包围圈。外电报道如下：U.S. troops powered their way into the center of the insurgent stronghold of Fallujah on Tuesday, overwhelming small bands of guerrillas with massive force, searching homes along the city's deserted, narrow passageways and using loudspeakers to try to goad militants onto the streets.
Goad表示“（用刺棒）驱赶，驱使，煽动”，常和on/into连用。例如：He was goaded on to study harder.（他被驱使更加努力地学习。）They goaded him into entering the pitch dark basement by saying he was a coward.（他们说他是个胆小鬼，从而煽动他走进了漆黑的地下室。）
