七、词义辨析
v.(动词)- tend to, mind
- 两者的共同意思是“注意”“留心”。它们之间的区别在于：
- 1.mind多指有可能会发生意外的事,警告某人要小心。
- 2.tend to虽有“留心”的意思,但它含有“服侍”的意味。 例如:
- She tended to her affairs carefully.她细心照料她的事务。
- She has many maids tending to her.她有这么多的侍女伺候着她。
- We employed a girl to tend to the children for a few hours each day.我们雇了一个女孩,每天照料孩子们几个小时。
- tend, attend, mind, watch
- 这组词都有“照料(某人或某物)”的意思,在含义上略有不同：attend侧重“服侍使其更舒服”; mind侧重“保护其不出意外,不受损害”; tend侧重“注意某事使其正常运转”; watch侧重“预先做好防止发生危险的准备”,有连续性或专职性。例如:
- He attended her through her illness.
- 她生病期间他一直照顾着她。
- There was nobody left to mind the shop.
- 没人留下看守店铺。
- A farmer is tending his sheep.
- 农夫在照看羊群。

- tend指出于责任心、博爱心而不是私人感情去对人或物进行照顾。
- foster指对孩子的关心、鼓励、供养及抚养其成长；也指鼓励、促进事物的增长与发展。
