look after 与take care of 的用法区别?
答:take care of作“照顾、照料”解,相当于look after.如:
① I believe that neighbors can take care of your son while you are out.
相信我外出期间我的邻居们会照顾我的儿子的.
② The boy is very young.He can’t take care of himself.这男孩很小,不可以照顾自己.
take care of作“保管、保护”解.如:
① The teacher told the students to take care of the new books.
老师告知学生要保护好新书.
② Can you take care of your thing?你会保管你的物品吗?
★take care of与look after都能作“照顾、照料”解,可以互相替换.但look after没有“保管、保护”的意思.如:
① She stayed at home and took care of her mother yesterday.
=She stayed at home and looked after her mother yesterday.
昨天她呆在家里照料她母亲了.
② Who is going go take care of the wounded person in the hospital?
=Who is going to look after the wounded person in the hospital?
谁去医院照料那个受伤的人?
③ Children must take good care of their eyes.
≠Children must look after their eyes well.
孩子们要好好保护眼睛.
★take good care of和look after…well意义相同,都是“好好照料、好好照顾”的意思.
但要注意,take care of用的是good一词,而look after则用well.如:
① Don’t worry.I can take good care of your pet while you are away.
=Don’t worry.I can look after your pet well while you are away.
放心,你不在时,我会照料好你的宠物的.
② The nurses took good care of the children.
=The nurses looked after the children well.
保育员把孩子照料得很好.
