英语语态的种类:即主动语态和被动语态,形成被动语态的一定是及物动词。

1. 当句子的主语是动作的执行者时, 谓语的形式叫主动语态。

I did the work.

2. 句子的主语是动作承受者时,谓语的形式叫被动作语态。

The work was done by me.

难点分享:不及物动词只有主动语态,无被动语态。

  • 主动语态:I lay on the bed. 变被动:On the bed was laid by me (错)

  • 老师讲解:lay是不及物动词lie“躺”的过去式。

  • 主动语态:I laid a book on the desk. 变被动:A book was laid on the desk by me(对)

  • 老师讲解:laid是及物动词lay的过去式“放置”

3. 被动语态由助动词be + 过去分词构成,时态通过be 表现出来。

be的演变史:am, is ,are/was ,were/ will be,shall be(音频中口误说成了should be) /am,is,are going to be/ is ,are being /was ,were being /have ,has been/ had been /will have been/would be/+done.

主动语态变被动的方式:原句的宾语作主语,后面接我上面的这些“be 的各种演变结构”即可。

主动:Everyone loves shenshen. 变被动:Shenshen is loved by everyone.

主动:The tiger stared at shenshen .变被动:Shenshen was stared at by the tiger.

主动:I took care of my baby. 变被动:My babe was taken care of by me.

注意事项:主动变被动的时候,时态一定要一致,同时注意主语和谓语单复数一致。

下面例句,供大家模仿练习。

1) 一般现在时:You are required to do this.

2) 一般过去时:The story was told by her.

3) 一般将来时:The problem will be discussed tomorrow.

4) 现在进行时:The road is being widened.

5) 过去进行时:The new tool was being made.

6) 现在完成时:The novel has been read.

7) 过去完成时:He said that the work had been finished.

8) 过去将来时:He said that the trees would be planted soon.

9)将来完成时:The task will have been finished by the end of next month.

如果你是初学者熟练掌握上面用法就很棒了,如果你想深入学习被动语态应付各种考试,搞定各种疑难杂症,

那么,你需要在掌握以上这些内容之后,进行深入学习。

补充内容,被动结构难点:

1) 带情态动词的被动结构:The problem must be solved soon.

2) 带不定式的被动结构:The homework needs to be done with care.

3) 短语动词的被动:

a.(不及物)动词+介词:

若这类短语动词是及物性的,则可用于被动语态中,如:laugh at, look after, talk about, think of 等。

若这类短语动词是不及物性的则不可用于被动语态中,如:book up, look down. 等

b.(及物)动词+副词:bring about, carry out, find out, make out, put away, put off, take up, turn down, turn out, wipe out等

c. 动词+副词 +介词:do away with, face up to, give into ,look down upon, make up with等

d. 动词+名词+介词:catch sight of, keep on eye on, make a fool of , pay attention to , put an end to , set fire/light to , take notice of 等

4) 带复合宾语的动词在改为被动语态时,一般把主动结构中的宾语改为主语,宾语补足语保留在谓语后面。

We always keep the classroom clean.(比较:The classroom is always kept clean.)

5)主动形式表示被动意义的词。

常见的有:

a.主动形式,这时动名词同句中的主语有动宾关系。

The children need looking after.

The windows wants /requires repairing.

This point deserves mentioning.

b.有些及物动词后须加副词 (如:well, easily等), 有些可不加,

如:act, clean, cut, draw, lock, open, play, read, sell, shut, strike, wash, write 等。

The cloth washes/ sells well.

The door won’t shut. The play won’t act.

c. 形容词worth后直接加动名词时,

如:The book is worth reading twice.

某些作表语的形容词后,用不定式主动形式表示被动意义。The fish is not fit to eat.

d. 某些感官动词(如:feel, look, prove, smell , sound, taste, wear等) 与形容词连用时:

The water feels very cold.

The dish tastes delicious.

6) 以下动词构成的句子不能改为被动句:

a. 动词leave, enter, reach 等的宾语是表示处所、地点(国家、团体,组织、军队)等。

b. 表示状态的动词,如:become, benefit, cost, contain, equal, fit, fail, have, lack, last, mean, suit, look like等。

c. 下列不及物动词及短语:appear, belong to , break out, die, happen, lie, occur, rise, take place, agree with, belong to, consist of , have on, keep up with 及一些固定词组,如 keep words, lose heart, make a face等。

d. 宾语是反身代词,相互代词,同源代词,不定式,动名词,抽象名词等。

7)汉语有一类句子不出现主语,在英语中一般可用被动结构表示。

如:

It is said that… 据说

It is reported that… 据报道

It is believed that… 大家相信

It is hoped that… 大家希望

It is well known that… 众所周知

It is thought that… 大家认为
