以下都是cry的种类:

All of us wept(或 cried) at the painful news.听到这个悲痛的消息,我们都落泪了。
sob 抽泣、呜咽
指抽搐喘气、或类似叹息地低声哭泣。汉语中常用鸣咽、抽噎、啜泣、哽咽等词来表示。
She sobbed her heart out. 她哭得死去活来。
wail 嚎啕痛哭
指因忧愁悲伤等情感而连喊带叫、连续不断地大声嚎哭。汉语中常用嚎啕、痛哭、哀泣、恸哭等词来表示。

whimper 多指用悲痛的、断断续续的声音哭泣。往往是由于失去保护或依靠而哭泣。它常同恐惧连在一起用。
A lost child is whimpering for his mother.迷路的孩子哭叫着找妈妈。
blubber 又哭又闹
指又哭又闹。使用这个词的人往往对哭闹者持嘲笑或轻蔑的态度,所以它多少带有一点贬义。有时候出于幽默,也可用来强调不适当的大声哭泣。
A child your age shouldn't sit about blubbering over a lost toy. 像你这么大的孩子不应为丢失了一个玩具而坐着又哭又闹。
