When you are talking about giving extra force to a word, use stress when you are talking about normal speech patterns, especially syllable stress. You can use stress or emphasize to talk about giving particular importance to a word. 這兩詞都可用於強調事實或問題的重要性。stress稍不正式,較多用於口語和新聞語言中,特别是以人作主語的時候,如I must stress ...(我必須強調⋯)。emphasize稍正式些,較多用於書面語及學術語境,特别是以物作主語的時候,如The report emphasizes ...(該報道強調⋯)。表示單詞讀音的重讀,尤其是重讀音節要用stress,表示強調某個詞語的重要性可用stress或emphasize。 underline ˌʌndəˈlaɪn; NAmE ˌʌndərˈlˌʌn [transitive] (rather formal) to emphasize or show that sth is important or true 強調;突現The report underlines the importance of pre-school education.這份報告強調學前教育的重要性。Her question only underlined how little she understood him.她問的問題只能突現她多麽不了解他。A report or statement most often underlines a fact, need or point. A person might underline their determination or commitment to do sth. * underline的主語是report或statement時,賓語多是fact、need或point。underline也可用於某人強調其做某事的determination或commitment。 underscore ˌʌndəˈskɔː(r); NAmE ˌʌndərˈskɔːr [transitive] (especially NAmE, especially business 尤用於商業) to emphasize that sth is important 強調;突現His speech underscored the need for a clear policy.他的演講強調了明確政策的必要性。NOTE 辨析 Underline or underscore?In British English underline has a wider range of use than underscore, which is only used when sb/sth deliberately emphasizes sth. Something can underline sth if it shows it to be important or true without meaning to; in American English underscore can also be used in this way, but not in British English. 在英式英語中,underline的使用範圍比underscore更廣泛些,後者僅用於刻意強調某事。underline可用於某事突現某事,表示一件事不是刻意安排而顯出另一件事的重要性或準確性。在美式英語中,underscore也可這樣用,而在英式英語中則不行Her question only underlined how little she understood him.她問的問題只能突現她多麽不了解他。 (NAmE also) Her question only underscored how little she understood him.她問的問題只能突現她多麽不了解他。In both British and American English you can also use highlight when you want to draw particular attention to sth. 此外,無論在英式或美式英語中,均可用highlight來表示強調某事。 see also highlight point sth out weight [transitive, usually passive] (technical 術語) to give different values to things to show how important you think each of them is compared with the others 使加權Each of these factors should be weighted according to their relative importance.應根據這些因素的相對重要性對它們進行加權處理。 prioritize (BrE also prioritise) praɪˈɒrətaɪz; NAmE praɪˈɔːrətaɪz, praɪˈɑːrətaɪz [transitive, intransitive] (rather formal) to put tasks or problems in order of importance, so that you can deal with the most important first 按重要性排列;劃分優先順序You should make a list of all the jobs you have to do and prioritize them.你應該把所有必須做的事情都列出來,並按輕重緩急排個順序。You have to learn to prioritize.你必須學會劃分優先順序。 see also priority priority
