辉╮的回答：这些形容词均含“准确的”“正确的”之意。区别如下： 1. accurate 指通过谨慎的努力达到符合事实或实际，侧重不同程度的准确性，与事实无出入。如： Watches have become very accurate. 手表已造得非常准确了。 You should send in accurate income tax returns. 你应当寄去准确的个人所得税报表。 Many people complain about not gathering accurate news. 许多人抱怨搜集不到准确的消息。 2. exact 着重在质与量方面的准确，语气比accurate强。如： What is her exact age? 她的准确年龄是多少? I need to know the exact size. 我需要知道确切的尺寸。 Mathematics is an exact science. 数学是一门精密的科学。 3. precise 侧重极端准确，更强调细节的精确无误。如： She denied knowing any thing more precise. 她否认知道任何更明确的事。 The level of formality determines the precise mode of expression. 不同的礼节程度决定所需的确切表达方式。 It was found at the precise spot where she had left it. 那东西正好在她遗落的那个地点找到了。
