关于especially noun,renprince说得对。 我查了查macmillan词典,especially有一个解释 used for showing that what you are saying applies to one person or thing more than others: PARTICULARLY: 例句:India, especially the southern part, has an immense potential to attract tourists.
对于especially和specially,我个人看法是especially是一个程度副词,而specially是一个带性质的副词,如果选项中especially和specially都有,我觉得根据原文使用的词来选,因为随意的改变用specially来取代especially,或者用especially取代specially都会造成原句的文字重心转移,举个例子吧,the building is especially tall.是指高的程度,如果用specially来取代,我觉得意思就变成了这个建筑高得很特殊,不知道各位能不能理解,我的想法就是这个建筑不是直立的高,而弯曲转折上去的,句子的重心发生了转移~
