Stress is slightly more informal, used more in spoken English and journalism, especially when the subject is human ( I must stress...). Emphasize is slightly more formal, used more in written and academic English, especially when the subject is not human ( The report emphasizes...). 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. 这两词都可用于强调事实或问题的重要性。stress稍不正式，较多用于口语和新闻语言中，特别是以人作主语的时候，如I must stress ...（我必须强调⋯）。emphasize稍正式些，较多用于书面语及学术语境，特别是以物作主语的时候，如The report emphasizes ...（该报道强调⋯）。表示单词读音的重读，尤其是重读音节要用stress，表示强调某个词语的重要性可用stress或emphasize。■ underline ˌʌndəˈlaɪn; NAmE ˌʌndərˈlˌʌn [transitive] (rather formal) to emphasize or show that sth is important or true 强调；突现◆The report underlines the importance of pre-school education.这份报告强调学前教育的重要性。◆Her question only underlined how little she understood him.她问的问题只能突现她多么不了解他。ⓘ A report or statement most often underlines a fact, need or point.

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. 在英式英语中，underline的使用范围比underscore更广泛些，后者仅用于刻意强调某事。underline可用于某事突现某事，表示一件事不是刻意安排而显出另一件事的重要性或准确性。在美式英语中，underscore也可这样用，而在英式英语中则不行◆Her question only underlined how little she understood him.她问的问题只能突现她多么不了解他。 (NAmE also) ◆Her question only underscored how little she understood him.她问的问题只能突现她多么不了解他。In both British and American English you can also use highlight when you want to draw particular attention to sth. 此外，无论在英式或美式英语中，均可用highlight来表示强调某事。   see also highlight ⇨ point sth out ■ weight [transitive, usually passive] (technical 术语) to give different values to things to show how important you think each of them is compared with the others 使加权◆Each of these factors should be weighted according to their relative importance.应根据这些因素的相对重要性对它们进行加权处理。■ 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；划分优先顺序◆You should make a list of all the jobs you have to do and prioritize them.你应该把所有必须做的事情都列出来，并按轻重缓急排个顺序。◆You have to learn to prioritize.你必须学会划分优先顺序。   see also priority ⇨ priority
