英 /kənˈsɪst/ v. 由…组成；在于；存在于

不及物动词，没有被动语态！ 高考高频，卷子出现变形 consistent

三个核心固定搭配

1. consist of 由……组成（= be made up of）

无被动，不能用be consisted of（高频错误）

– The team consists of five members.

这支队伍由五名成员组成。

2. consist in 在于，存在于（强调本质）

– Happiness consists in contentment.

幸福在于知足。

3. consist with 与……一致（= be consistent with）

– His story does not consist with the facts.

他的说法和事实不符。

派生词（试卷考点）

短语：be consistent with 与……相一致（你卷子原句）

make AI be consistent with human’s will

让AI和人类的意愿保持一致

2. consistency n. [U]一致性，连贯性

考试超级易错

The group is consisted of 10 students.（错，consist无被动）

The group consists of 10 students.

The group is made up of 10 students.

区分

– consist of：主动形式表“由…构成”

– be consistent with：形容词短语“与…相符”

简短口诀

consist无被动，

of表组成，in表本质，with表一致；

形容词consistent，搭配with要熟记。
