1.bear, suffer, endure, tolerate, stand这组动词都有"忍受"的意思

(1)bear 和 suffer 可以表示"对强加的任何东西的忍受",bear 侧重于表示"忍受沉重或难办的事"。

(2)suffer 侧重于表示"忍受或经受令人不愉快的、甚至于痛苦的事"。

  例如:

No benefactions and research endowments can make up for the change in character which the university city has suffered.

捐款和科研经费决不能弥补大学城所经受的性质上的变化。

(3)endure 强调"长时间的忍受痛苦而不屈服"。

  例如:

What can't be cured must be endured.

治不好的病就必须忍受。(谚语)

(4)tolerate 和 stand 都表示"忍受令人生厌的事"。tolerate 的内涵是"为了和平或融洽而不反对"。
