被动语态 一、 被动语态的使用情况 被动语态是英语中的两大语态之一,它表示主语是动作的承受者。被动语态通常在以下情况下使用: (1)不知道谁是动作的执行者。如: It is found that Tom was murdered and the police has taken action to look into the case. 句意为“有人发现汤姆被杀,警方已采取行动调查此事”。显然“谋杀”这个动作的执行者是未知的,此时用被动语态更适宜。 (2) 没有必要指出谁是动作的执行者。如: Fresh fruit is sold in this market. 句意为“这个市场出售新鲜水果”。“出售”这个动作的执行者是人人皆知的,没有必要指出具体是 谁。 (3) 强调动作的承受者。如: “A Tale of Two Cities” was written by Dickens. 句意为“《双城记》的作者是狄更斯”。此处“A Tale of Two Cities”是句子的重心,即主语是强调的对象, 但这并不是说by引起的状语不重要,如果把它们去掉,往往句意不完整。 (4) 为了句式的变化或句子结构的平衡。如: The leader was killed by a terrorist who was arrested immediately after the exploding. 句意为“那位领导人被一个恐怖分子杀害了,爆炸事件发生后这个恐怖分子立即被逮捕了”。这句话如果用主动语态表达,整个句子结构就会显得头重脚轻。又如: The government is going to build a new school next year and it is going to be built in the poor village. 句意为“明年政府要建一所新的学校,就建在那个贫困村”。如果后一句也用主动语态表达, 前后两个句子的句式相同, 句子结构便显得呆板、啰嗦。 . 被动语态的基本时态变化 被动语态通常为十种时态的被动形式, 被动语态由be+过去分词构成,be随时态的变化而变化。以do为例,各种时态的被动语态形式为: 1) am/is/are +done (过去分词) 一般现在时 例Visitors are requested not to touch the exhibits. 2) has /have been done 现在完成时 例All the preparations for the task have been completed, and were ready to start. 3) am/is /are being done 现在进行时 例A new cinema is being built here. 4) was/were done 一般过去时 例I was given ten minutes to decide whether I should reject the offer. 5) had been done 过去完成时 例 By the end of last year, another new gymnasium had been completed in Beijing. 6) was/were being done 过去进行时 例A meeting was being held when I was there. 7) shall/will be done 一般将来时 例Hundreds of jobs will be lost if the factory closes. 8) should/would be done 过去将来时 例The news would be sent to the soldiers mother as soon as it arrived. 9) shall/will have been done 将来完成时(少用) 例The project will have been completed before July. 10) should/would have been done 过去将来完成时(少用) 例He told me that his new clothes would have been made very soon. 2. 被动语态的特殊结构形式 1)带情态动词的被动结构。其形式为:情态动词+be+过去分词。 例The baby should be taken go
