语域:neutral 常见场景:日常交流、学术写作、商务/新闻 表示“(在一定范围内)变化”时,range 是中性常用动词,口语和书面语中都比较常见于“range from A to B”或“range between A and B”这类搭配。
Grammar Note
作为动词,常用搭配 range from...to... 表示范围变化;range over 表示涉及;range between...and... 表示在...之间变化。
Pronunciation & Spelling
与 range(/reɪndʒ/)押韵:change、strange、arrange、exchange,都以 /eɪndʒ/ 结尾。注意拼写相似的 orange(/ˈɔːrɪndʒ/)元音不同,danger(/ˈdeɪndʒɚ/)多了一个音节,因此都不押韵。
