🔊 发音指导

accumulate:/əˈkjuːmjəleɪt/ [ə-kyoo-myuh-layt]

amass:/əˈmæs/ [ə-mass]

发音要点:

  • accumulate:重音在第二音节,注意"ccu"发/kjuː/音
  • amass:短促有力,结尾/s/音要清晰
  • gather:/ð/要咬舌发音
  • build up:注意连读现象

中文谐音参考:

accumulate:呃-Q-谬-累特

amass:呃-麦斯

💡 顾老师纠音:常见错误:

  • 把accumulate读成"阿Q谬累特"(正确:[ə-kyoo-myuh-layt]
  • amass重音错误(应在第二个音节)
  • 忽略gather的咬舌音

🎯 用法区别

1. accumulate vs. amass

Snow accumulated on the ground (自然过程)
He amassed a huge collection of stamps (有意识收集)

2. gather vs. build up

Crowds gathered in the square (聚集)
Tension built up before the exam (逐步增强)

3. 固定搭配

accumulate experience/knowledge
amass wealth/fortune
gather information/people
build up strength/confidence

语法注意:

  • accumulate/amass/gather都可作及物或不及物动词
  • build up必须接宾语或使用被动语态
  • amass通常不用于进行时

📝 随堂练习

1. 选词填空:

The library has (accumulated/amassed) over 50,000 rare books.

2. 听录音跟读:

accumulate:[ə-kyoo-myuh-layt] → Experience accumulates over time.

amass:[ə-mass] → They amassed enough evidence.

3. 改错:找出用法错误

原句:He is amassing a fortune slowly.(amass通常不用于进行时)

正确:He has amassed a fortune over the years.
