kind 指性质相同,且极相似之物质,在分类中可作为一类者.例如：
What kind of cake do you like best?你最喜欢哪一种饼?
type 则指型,类型,比较具体、肯定等,而kind比较笼统,模糊.例如：
Men of his type are not to be trusted.像他那种类型的人不可信赖.
比较起来,kind 用的比较多.
What kind of job you have?应该改为：What kind of job do you have?这句话需要用助动词.
What type of story are you said just?应该改为：What kind of story did you say just now?表示时间只用just 不合适；say 是实意动词,疑问句中不能再用be 动词.在这类句子中,kind 比较常用.
