用法说明
nominate, designate, name
这三个词都含有“任命”、“指派”之义。nominate表示正式“提名”某人或物候选某职位或奖项等，供当权者作最后决定。designate较正式，常用被动语态，表示被任命担任某职位或被指定用于某用途。name 较口语化，侧重表示结果，即宣布“任命”，所任命的职位往往是政治团体或政府部门的行政工作。试比较：
He was nominated for the Presidency. (=He was nominated as the President.)他被提名为总统候选人。
He was designated as the Secretary of Defense.他被任命为国防部长。
She has been named as the chairman.她被任命作主席。
