解析
本题考查名词词义辨析及固定搭配的知识点。解题思路是先明确每个选项单词的含义,再结合题目中的固定搭配来判断正确答案。
- A选项“emphasis”:意为“强调;重点”,常见搭配为“place emphasis on”,表示“强调;着重于”。在本题中,“The teacher placed special emphasis on the importance of critical thinking skills during the lecture.” 意思是老师在讲座中特别强调了批判性思维技能的重要性,该搭配和语义都符合题意。
- B选项“focus”:有“焦点;重点”的意思,常见搭配是“focus on”,但一般不用于“place focus on”这种表达,所以B选项不符合要求。
- C选项“pressure”:意为“压力”,“place pressure on”表示“对……施加压力”,与本题中表达强调重要性的语境不符,所以C选项不正确。
- D选项“attention”:意为“注意力”,常见搭配是“pay attention to”,而不是“place attention on”,所以D选项也不合适。
