词义辨析

n. (名词)

prize, award, honour

• 这三个词都可作“奖励”解。其区别在于:
• 1.award指对于优异成绩或卓越贡献经评定后正式授予的奖励; prize指确认某人在竞赛中所获得的优异成绩并给予特殊的奖励,也含有优胜者几经拼搏、胜利来之不易的意思; honour可指正式授予的精神奖励,也可指个人在公开场合下对某人所表达的高度评价与尊敬。例如:
• The new library has won an architectural award.新图书馆赢得了建筑奖。
• He finished only a yard behind the winner of the race but he had to be content with the second prize.比赛到达终点时,他虽仅以一码之差输给了第一名,但获得了二等奖他也应心满意足了。
• She brought honour to her family.她给家庭带来了荣誉。
• 2.award, prize既可指精神上的奖励,也可指物质上的奖励; honour只指精神奖励。例如:
• The Golden Rooster Award is given out once a year.每年授予一次金鸡奖。
• Her book gained several literary prizes.她写的书获得好几种文学奖。
• Such a man is honour to his country.这种人是国家的光荣。

v. (动词)

prize, appreciate, cherish, treasure, value

• 这组词的共同意思是“高度评价某事物”。其区别是：
• 1.appreciate强调理解并欣赏其价值; value强调高度评价并珍视其价值; prize指珍视; treasure指珍藏。
• 2.cherish与prize和treasure含义相同,指珍视或珍藏,但喜爱之意更甚。

prize，medal

• 这一对名词都有奖品的意思。
• prize是表示“奖品”或“奖（彩）金”之意。
• medal是指“奖牌（章）”或“勋章”。
