Symbolize is often more abstract (= existing as an idea rather than as a physical reality), and can be used to talk about objects or things, such as a dove (= a type of bird) being used to give the idea of peace, but it is a picture or idea of a dove, not a particular dove that really exists. Represent is the most general of these words: it can be used to mean embody or symbolize or it can simply mean 'express'. 这些词中embody最为具体和形象，指真实的人肩负他人的希望。embody总是指体现某些优良品质。symbolize往往指体现较为抽象的理念，可用于谈论物品或事物，如用鸽子代表和平的理念，但象征物是鸽子的图片或概念，而非特指某只真实的鸽子。represent在这些词中含义最宽泛，可表示embody或symbolize的意思，或指“表达”◆The comments represent the views of the majority.这些意见表达了大多数人的看法。 ■ exemplify ɪgˈzemplɪfaɪ [transitive, often passive] (not usually used in the progressive tenses 通常不用于进行时) (formal) to be a good example of sth 是⋯的典型（或典范、榜样）◆Her early work is exemplified in her book, 'A Study of Children's Minds'.《儿童思维研究》一书是她早期的代表作。◆His food exemplifies Italian cooking at its best.他的菜肴体现了意大利烹饪的精髓。   see also example ⇨ example 2 ■ typify ˈtɪpɪfaɪ [transitive] (not usually used in the progressive tenses 通常不用于进行时) (rather formal) to be a typical example of sth; to be a typical feature of sth 是⋯的典型（或典范）；是⋯的典型特征◆These are clothes that typify the 1960s.这些是20世纪60年代的典型服装。◆There's a new style of politician, typified by the Prime Minister.出现了一种以首相为代表的新型政治家。■ epitomize (BrE also epitomise) ɪˈpɪtəmaɪz [transitive] (not usually used in the progressive tenses 通常不用于进行时) (rather formal) to be a perfect example of sth 是⋯的典范（或典型）◆The fighting qualities of the team are epitomized by the captain.这个队的拼搏品质集中体现在队长身上。◆These movies seem to epitomize the 1950s.这些影片似乎是20世纪50年代的缩影。   see also epitome ⇨ example 2 NOTE 辨析 Exemplify, typify or epitomize?Something can exemplify an idea or sb's work. Something can typify or epitomize a mood, style or atmosphere, especially of a particular time or place. Epitomize suggests that you cannot imagine a more typical example of sth. Typify is more neutral, and suggests that the example you are giving has all the usual qualities or features of a particular time, place or type of person or thing. * exemplify指体现某种观念或某人的工作。typify或epitomize尤指体现某段时期或某地的情绪、风格或氛围。epitomize意味着最为典型，是最佳体现。typify较为中性，意味着给出的例子非常典型。
