联想记忆：juncture 像 junction（连接点）加 -ture，两条路交会的“关口”就是关键时刻。
语域：formal 常见场景：formal speeches、news reporting、business meetings 表示“关键时刻/关头”时，juncture 通常用于正式或书面语境，比较常见于新闻、会议和报告中；日常口语里更常说 point 或 moment。
Rhymes with puncture /ˈpʌŋktʃɚ/. Be careful: junction /ˈdʒʌŋkʃən/ and function /ˈfʌŋkʃən/ end in /ʃən/, not /tʃɚ/, so they are lookalikes, not rhymes. Picture /ˈpɪktʃɚ/ and lecture /ˈlɛktʃɚ/ have the same -ture spelling with /tʃɚ/ ending, but their stressed vowels differ, so they do not rhyme.
