2019-03-05每日一词prize

    “prize”作为名词是“奖品”“奖赏”,作为动词使用,表示“珍惜”“青睐”。英英释义:to consider something to be very important and special。故可用 prize 替换 value, appreciate, hold dear 等词。


    例句:

    ①“我知道你很重视我们之间的友谊”,就可以说成:   

    I know that you prize our friendship.

    ② It seems that people prize attitude over expertise.(这句话的意思是说,读者读写作指南时,更看重作者对语言的态度而不是专业知识)

    prize A over B 也是个常见表达,表示“更重视 A,而不是 B”。比如我们想说和用哪种方式阅读比较而言,我们应该更重视内容,就可以说成:    

    We should prize content over the means to read it.

    ③ prize 表示“珍惜”“青睐”时,也常常使用被动语态 be prized by。比如我们想说如今“海归”回国找工作时没那么“吃香”了,就可以说:

    Overseas returnees are no longer highly prized by employers.


    1)翻译:

    许多中国家长非常重视奥数比赛。

    The International Mathematical Olympiad, a competition for high school students, is much prized by many Chinese parents.

    Many Chinese parents prize the International Mathematical Olympiad very much.

    2)造句。 

    例子: We should prize the practice over the theory in routine work.

    场景 :在日常工作中相对理论而言我们应该更重视实践。
