Comparing “chíxù” and “jìxù”

高温天气已经持续了将近一个星期。

Gāowēn tiānqì yǐjīng chíxù le jiāngjìn yí ge xīngqī.

The high-temperature weather has already lasted for nearly a week.

如果没有别的问题，我们就继续开会吧。

Rúguǒ méiyǒu bié de wèntí, wǒmen jiù jìxù kāihuì ba.

If there are no other questions, let’s continue the meeting.

这种压力如果长期持续下去，对身体和情绪都会有影响，所以我们不能只是埋头继续工作而不休息。

Zhè zhǒng yālì rúguǒ chángqī chíxù xiàqù, duì shēntǐ hé qíngxù dōu huì yǒu yǐngxiǎng, suǒyǐ wǒmen bù néng zhǐshì máitóu jìxù gōngzuò ér bù xiūxi.

If this kind of pressure continues for a long time, it will affect both the body and emotions, so we cannot just keep working without rest.
