這組詞的共同意思是“改變”“變化”。change和alter有時可以互換。例如:

Whatever we do, we can't change〔alter〕 the facts.不管我們做什么,我們總不能改變事實。

He has changed〔altered〕 a lot since I last saw him.自從上次見面到現在,他變了很多。

The weather changes〔alters〕 almost daily.天氣差不多天天在變。

其區別是：

1.change在這幾個詞中是最普遍、最不正式的一個,可用于任何變化的過程,而不論變化的性質和程度; alter指局部的、表面的、輕微的“改變”“改動”,修改后仍基本上保持原狀; alter和convert都指形式和用途上的局部微小改變; turn指徹底改變,以至面目全非,且常用于朝壞的方向改變; modify指限定在一定范圍內的修改或修飾,以使之更完美; vary則指事物或其一部分暫時地或反復地變化,從而使事物各部分呈現不同外貌和特點。例如:

When matter changes to a substance different from what it was, the change is a chemical change.當物質變成和原來不同的物質時,這種變化是化學變化。

The plan is O.K. at large, but I suggest it be altered.該計劃總的來說是可以的,但我建議做進一步修改。

Pressure varies directly with temperature and inversely with volume.壓力隨溫度成正比例變化,與容積成反比例變化。

Those who were once for him have turned against him.那些原來支持他的人現在轉而反對他。

After he left the university, he became a teacher, but he later turned to translation.他大學畢業后當了教師,但后來轉向翻譯工作。

2.convert可指改變信仰,尤其是宗教信仰; modify指態度變溫和。例如:

He has converted from Buddhism to Catholicism.他已放棄佛教改信天主教了。

You'd better modify your tone.你最好緩和一下你的口氣。
