Powerful is the most general word and describes sb who has power, especially because of their position, and is able to use it to control people and events. Leaders, politicians and top business people are often described as powerful. Strong especially describes sb who is in a position of power and also has the skills and qualities needed to use their power effectively. A leader might be powerful because of their position, but a strong leader is confident and has leadership qualities. Influential describes sb/sth that people respect, listen to or take notice of and that therefore influences their opinions or behaviour. Important often describes sb who has a lot of influence on other people or events because they are respected or because what they do has a greater effect than what others do. * powerful、strong、influential或important均形容人或团体有实力或影响力。powerful一词含义最广，形容一个人尤因其地位而有实力，能对人和事件施加影响，常用来描述领导者、从政者和商业巨头。strong尤用于描述身居要职、有手段和能力运用权势的人。powerful leader可能是因其地位而有权有势，但strong leader则有自信心和领导才能。influential描述人或事物受人尊敬和重视，因此对他人的观点和行为产生影响。important常形容某人受到尊重或其行为的影响超出别人，因此能对他人或事件有重大影响。■ great having high status and a lot of influence 位高权重的◆the great powers (= important and powerful countries) 强国◆We can make this country great again.我们可以使这个国家再次强大起来。◆Alexander the Great亚历山大大帝■ instrumental ˌɪnstrəˈmentl (rather formal) important in making sth happen 起重要作用的◆He was instrumental in bringing about an end to the conflict.他在终止冲突的过程中起了举足轻重的作用。■ ˌhigh-ˈpowered (of politicians and business people) having a lot of power and influence; (of jobs and activities) important or with a lot of responsibility （从政者和商界人士）有权势的；（工作或活动）重要的，责任重大的◆She's a high-powered executive with a salary to match.她是一名高管，职位高，工资也高。◆He has a very high-powered job and a hectic schedule.他有份责任重大的工作，日程安排得满满的。
