1) 概览：关税（Tariff）是国际贸易中最古老且最常用的贸易壁垒之一。当外国商品进入本国市场时，政府通过征收关税增加进口成本，从而使本国商品在价格上更具竞争力。
2) 使用模式：在句子中，关税通常作为主语或宾语，常与动词搭配使用，如“提高关税”、“降低关税”、“免除关税”或“征收关税”。它在经济新闻和政策讨论中出现频率极高。
3) 常见语境：关税常出现在国际贸易谈判、宏观经济分析、企业进出口业务以及政府财政政策的讨论中。例如，当两个国家发生贸易摩擦时，媒体经常会提到“互加关税”。
4) 近义词辨析：关税与“税收”不同，税收是统称，而关税特指海关税；与“贸易壁垒”相比，关税是实现贸易保护的具体手段之一，而贸易壁垒是一个更广泛的概念，还包括配额、许可等非关税措施。
