易混词辨析
account、explain、accounted
1. accounted:动词过去式 / 过去分词 “解释;说明;占(比例)(account 的过去式 / 分词,多义)”(搭配 “accounted for the delay;accounted for 30% of sales;the mistake was accounted for”);
2. account:动词 “解释;说明;占”/ 名词 “账户;解释”,近义差异(“account for the error”(动词,解释错误) vs “he accounted for the error”(过去式,他解释了错误);“bank account”(名词,银行账户) vs “accounted balance”(错误,应为 “account balance”));
3. explain:动词 “解释;说明(侧重 “清晰说明原因,无 “占比例” 义”)”,近义差异(“explain the reason”(解释原因) vs “accounted for the reason”(错误,应为 “accounted for the result”(解释结果));“accounted for 20%”(占 20%) vs “explain 20%”(错误));
4. 高频错拼:易漏写 “e”(误写 “accountd”);
5. 搭配误区:“解释 / 占比例” 必须加 “for”(“accounted for”,正确),“explain for” 错误。
