The two parties were not in competition with each other. 双方非互相角逐。
They found themselves in competition with people much more experienced than they were. 他们发现自已是在和比他们经验丰富得多的人角逐。
They had no group cohesiveness. They were in competition with each other all the time. 他们缺少团队凝聚力。他们一直都在相互角逐。
He was in competition with ten others, so he did well to win the race. 与他角逐的有十个人，因此为了取得比赛，他作了非常大的努力。
