使用被動語態(tài)應注意:
1、不及物動詞無被動語態(tài)。
What will happen in 100 years.
The dinosaurs disappeared about 65 million years ago.
2、有些動詞用主動形式表示被動意義。
This pen writes well.
This new book sells well.
3、感官動詞或使役動詞使用省略to的`動詞不定式,主動語態(tài)中不帶to ,但變?yōu)楸粍诱Z態(tài)時,須加上to 。
例:make somebody do something→somebody+ be +made to do something
see somebody do something→somebody +be +seen to do something
A girl saw my wallet drop when she passed by.→My wallet was seen to drop by a girl when she passed by.
The boss made the little boy do heavy work.→The little boy was made to do heavy work by the boss.
4、如果是接雙賓語的動詞改為被動語態(tài)時,直接賓語(物)作主語,那么動詞后要用介詞,這個介詞是由與其搭配的動詞決定。
He gave me a book.→A book was given to me by him.
He showed me a ticket.→A ticket was shown to me by him.
My father bought me a new bike. →A new bike was bought for me by my father.
5、一些動詞短語用于被動語態(tài)時,動詞短語應當看作一個整體,而不能丟掉其中的介詞或副詞。
We can't laugh him. →He can't be laugh by us.
He listens to the radio every day. →The radio is listened to by him every day.
The nurse is taking care of the sick man. →The sick man is being taken care of by the nurse.
