active能作为动词吗 - 柯帕斯英语网

active字典上只有形容词和名词，但我看到一个句子：

Because the electric buttons used to active the door wouldn't work, he became a prisoner in his own car. (出自一份四级模拟卷)

这里的active明显被当成动词使用！

应该是有拼写错误吧！

active 似应为 acitvate。

Because the electric buttons used to activate the door wouldn't work, he became a prisoner in his own car. 由于用于激活车门的电子按钮不起作用，所以他被关在了自己车上。

freeone 的解答是正确的，但是“ active 似应为 acitvate” 应改为：“active 似应为 activate”
