二、詞義辨析：


devise,conceive,formulate

這些動(dòng)詞的均含“設(shè)計(jì)、設(shè)想”之意。 devise側(cè)重設(shè)計(jì)的臨時(shí)性和權(quán)宜性，并隱含有更多的設(shè)想可用。 conceive強(qiáng)調(diào)在制定計(jì)劃之前的先有設(shè)想構(gòu)思。 formulate與conceive相反，指在devise之后的具體設(shè)計(jì)活動(dòng)。


三、詞義辨析：


think,conceive,imagine,fancy,realize

這些動(dòng)詞均可表示“在思想中形成一個(gè)看法或觀念”之意。 think最普通用詞，指想或思索，也指由反復(fù)思考而作出判斷或得出結(jié)論等。 conceive指在頭腦中組織好自己的思想，在心中形成一個(gè)系統(tǒng)的思想或一個(gè)見解。 imagine比conceive更強(qiáng)調(diào)形象思維，指在頭腦中形成一個(gè)清晰明確的意象。 fancy與imagine略不同，往往指的是不切實(shí)際的，屬于夢幻般的想象。 realize指領(lǐng)悟，通過生動(dòng)的構(gòu)思或想象從而抓住事物的本質(zhì)。
