  • 词义辨析
  • anxiety, care, worry
  • 这组词都有“忧虑”“担心”的意思。它们的区别是：
    1.care指由于责任重大,担心与恐惧而产生的“忧虑”“担心”; anxiety则指因悬而未决或吉凶难卜的事而引起的焦虑与紧张不安,也可指因即将到来的灾难和不幸而产生的恐惧与忧虑; worry则指由于问题、环境及人而从内心深处产生的“不安”“焦虑”或“烦恼”。
    2.anxiety仅指感情上的担忧,而care则除指感情上的担忧外,还可以指理智上对某事的挂念或操心。
    3.anxiety常指由于没有获得某物而引起的不安,而care则是获得了某物之后而引起的不安或操心。
    4.care的复数形式cares常表示烦恼或引起不安的具体的事; worry的复数形式worries通常指生活中使人操心的事,而anxiety则没有此用法。例如:
    Care had made him look ten years older.操心使他看起来比实际年龄大了10岁。
    The rich had their cares also.有钱的人也有他们烦恼的事情。
    He expressed his anxiety for his son's safety.他说他担心儿子的安全。

    worry侧重对未知事态演变的忧虑。
    care强调因出于责任感或顾虑等而产生的不安。
    concern作“关心”用时，是indifference(冷漠)的反义词，侧重对他人健康、安全等的关心，也可暗示对困难、危险或失败等的忧虑。
