　　1.Base on

　　EX: Climatologists base their predictions about climate change on computer simulations.

　　例句：气象学家关于天气变化的预测是根据计算机模拟测试得出的。

　　If you use “base on” you must say WHAT climatologists base on computer simulations. This is because the verb “base on” requires two objects (it is what grammarians call a ditransitive verb). In the above example, computer simulations is one object, and their predictions about climate change is the other.

　　使用“base on”时，一定要写明什么东西是根据计算机模拟测试得出的。这是因为“base on ”需要两个宾语(语言学家称其为双宾动词)。在上面这个例子中，计算机模拟测试是其中一个宾语，气象学家关于气候变化的预测是另一个宾语。

　　2.Based on

　　You can also say that “something is based on something” – this is the passive.

　　EX. It cannot be said that the actions are based on the consumer’s ignorance or lack of experience.

　　例句：我们不能说这些措施是基于消费者的无知和缺乏经验而得出的。

　　In summary, there are two ways of using “base on” – active or passive.

　　总之，base on可以有两种用法——主动和被动。
