辨析：

curve，bend，bow，crook，twist

这些动词都含“弯、弯曲”之意。

curve指变成曲线或弧线状的动作或状态。

bend普通用词，指把某物变成曲线或角形。用于人时，指头部或身躯弯下。

bow指把头部或上身弯向前方的动作，也指社交中的礼节性动作。

crook指不规则的弯曲，也指按照规则或模型弯曲某物。

twist指通过转动、拧或扭使某物成弯曲状。

〈动〉twine；bind；wind；intertwine

这里的twist是由其原意“扭转、弯曲”所引出的改变、创新的意思，可理解为“change”。这个意思的twist还可以有这样的例句：He wants me to make a twist in what I'm doing now in order to differ from the tradtion. 他希望我做出一些改变以与传统产生差异。The story has taken another twist. 故事又有了另外的变化。
