I want to emphasize the elements of the html drop elements. Not all
element, but few of them. I tried with <b> and style "font-weight" but
its not working.

You cant do it with <b>. You can't put markup in an option. CSS is the
way to go but when it comes to forms it varies what styling browsers
allow. In this case IE won't play but for example Mozilla will.

If you want to emphasize by grouping, look into the OPTGROUP element, eg:

<select name="groceries">
<optgroup label="Meats">
<option value="bf">Beef</option>
<option value="chx">Chicken</option>
</optgroup>
<optgroup label="Vegetables">
<option value="tom">Tomato</option>
<option value="spin">Spinach</option>
</optgroup>
</select>
