根据我的使用经验，21世纪大英汉，也相当程度地参考了Random House Webster's Unabridged Dictionary。
Envison:
RH:
to picture mentally, esp. some future event or events:
to envision a bright future.
21C:
想像，设想；预想；展望:
to envision a bright future
展望一个光明的未来
Conceive:
RH:
4. to experience or form (a feeling): to conceive a great love for music.
5. to express, as in words.
6. to become pregnant with.
9. Archaic. to understand; comprehend.
21C:
4.怀有(某种感情)：
5.(用言语)表达：
6.怀(孕)：
8.古语理解；了解
但是，查speculate，韦氏好像都未收录vt，而21C的及物动词义项达到了5个，查遍目前手头的词典，好像一个都对不上。
反过来，查speculation，两者对应很好，除21C最后多出的两个义项（只能说明这的确是一部伟大的词典）：
Speculation:
RH:
1. the contemplation or consideration of some subject 思索，沉思，考虑
2. a single instance or process of consideration. 一番思考；思考过程
3. a conclusion or opinion reached by such contemplation (考虑后的)结论，意见
4. conjectural consideration of a matter; conjecture or surmise 推测，推断，猜测
5. engagement in business transactions involving considerable risk but offering the chance of large gains, esp. trading in commodities, stocks, etc., in the hope of profit from changes in the market price. 投机
6. a speculative commercial venture or undertaking. 投机生意，投机事业
21C:
1.思索，沉思，考虑
2.一番思考；思考过程
3.(考虑后的)结论，意见
4.推测，推断，猜测
5.投机
6.投机生意，投机事业
7.牌戏投机
8.哲学思辨
