However, a person who heads sth is the person who has the official position of being the head of it: for example, a government is headed by a prime minister, an enquiry might be headed by a judge, etc. It is usually an individual who heads sth. Sb who leads sth may also have an official position as the leader, but the verb lead emphasizes their leadership qualities. Sb who leads is the person who makes the important plans and decisions, and who other people follow. A group of people, such as an organization or a country can also lead sth. 这两个动词用法非常相似,但head指担任正式领导职务,例如政府由首相来领导,调查可能由法官来领导,等等。head的主语通常是某一个人。lead也可指担任正式领导职务,但它更强调领导素质,领导者制订重要计划或作出重要决定并得到其他人的追随。lead的主语还可以是群体,比如某个机构或国家。 preside prɪˈzaɪd [intransitive] (formal) to be in charge of a meeting, ceremony or official process such as a trial 主持(会议、仪式、审判等);担任(会议)主席A tribunal, presided over by Lord Haskin, was established to investigate the allegations.成立了一个由哈斯金勋爵主持的特别法庭对这些指控进行调查。The Archbishop presided at a special mass in the city's cathedral.大主教在该市主教座堂里主持了一场特殊的弥撒。 chair [transitive] to be in charge of a meeting, discussion, or committee, telling people when they can speak 担任(会议、讨论或委员会的)主席;主持(会议、讨论等)Who's chairing the meeting?这次会议谁主持?Lord Stansfield will chair the committee.斯坦斯菲尔德勋爵将出任该委员会主席。 spearhead ˈspɪəhed; NAmE ˈspɪrhed [transitive] (especially journalism 尤用于新闻) to begin or lead a campaign for sth or an attack on sb/sth 做⋯的先锋;带头做;领先突击He is spearheading a campaign for a new stadium in the town.他正发起一项运动,呼吁在城里建一座新体育场。Gardener spearheaded Britain's challenge at this year's World Championships.在今年的世界锦标赛上,加德纳率英国队发起挑战。 captain [transitive] to be the captain of a sports team or a ship 担任⋯的队长(或船长)He played in the West Indies team captained by Clive Lloyd.他效力于西印度群岛队,该队队长为克莱夫•劳埃德。He told us about the ship he had captained during the war.他向我们讲述了战争期间他任船长的那艘轮船的故事。lead3
