慎小一地道美语写作表达

这个句型完整的意思是“牢牢地把握住……”例句：In his biography, the message of perseverance and holding fast to one’s dreams in the face of adversity is very strong.近义：其实在美语中，put a premium on/ set considerable store (这里不是指商店) by/ put a high value on / treasure( vt. ) / cherish ( vt.) / value ( vt.)也都可以用来表达“珍视”的意思，没必要总是不停地用“put emphasis on”或者“attach great importance to”这些每个考生都在使用的表达了。
