award,
reward
两者的含义基本相同，但在不同语境中表达的含义有所差别。
award
指正式地或官方地颁发，授予，给予；也可以指法庭裁决给予。它指一种官方的奖励行为，往往鼓励在工作中达到成就或所提出的要求而进行一种奖励。强调荣誉而不在乎奖品的大小或奖金的多少。
award的“奖品”是因优点奖励或授予的东西，如：
The
school
principal
awarded
a
prize
in
history
to
the
best
student.
学校校长将历史奖授予最出色的学生。
award
还可指XX奖
比如“金球奖”就是“Golden
Globe
Award”，不能说“Golden
Globe
Prize”
reward“报答，报偿，奖赏”，多指对某人的工作或服务等的报答。
如：
The

a
