在英语中，形容词 'authorized' 作表语时需要系动词 'be'，而中文常省略系动词，导致错误。
The professor is an authorized source on the topic.The professor is an authoritative source on the topic.
'authorized' 意为'经授权的'，而 'authoritative' 意为'权威的、可靠的'。中文里两者都可能译为'权威的'，导致混淆。

Pronunciation & Spelling
The words ending in '-ized' (realized, recognized, organized, criticized) share the final /aɪzd/ sound and rhyme with authorized's final /ˌaɪzd/. Beware of 'author' and 'authority', which share the spelling 'author' but are not rhymes: author /ˈɔθɚ/ keeps the first syllable of authorized, while authority /əˈθɔrəti/ changes the vowel, stress, and syllable structure.
