急！谁能帮我解答这题？

—Mum, it is nice weather. I want to skate this afternoon.
—Don't you think the ice on the lake is too thin to _________ your weight?
A. stand B. bear C. catch D. take

答案为B
请结合题目重点讲解stand和bear之间的区别。谢谢！

Answer 1

简单的说
stand一般接人:
1.I could stand a good night's sleep.
我受益于一夜好的睡眠.
2.We will not stand for impertinent behavior.
我们不会容忍不礼貌的行为.

bear可以接物也可以人.
1.负荷；负重,支撑；支持(切合题目意思!!!!)
2..Bear with me while I explain matters.
请耐心听我的解释

更多的区别:
Bear 更多地适用于承受的能力：
“Man performs, engenders, so much more than he can or should have to bear. That's how he finds that he can bear anything” (William Faulkner).
“人类所做的和引起的事情远远比他能够或必须承受的要多得多。那就是他如何发现了他能够忍受一切” （威廉·福克纳）。

Stand 指精神上坚毅，有决心：
The pain was too intense to stand. Actors who can't stand criticism shouldn't perform in public.
痛苦强烈得无法承受。受不了批评的演员不应在公众中演出。

stand 常与 bear 通用，如果用词确切，stand 总包含着“不退让”、“不畏缩”的“忍受”,更多的是人做主语!
He can stand more pain than anyone else I know.
他比我认识的任何人都更能忍受痛苦。
He stood the test of war.
他经受住了战争的考验。

Answer 2

bear的意思中"承受"的比重更大
stand则偏向于"忍受"
