被动语态(简单)

Passive Voice (Simple)

被动语态用于动作比执行者更重要,或执行者未知或显而易见的情况。在被动语态中,主动句的宾语变成主语。结构是:主语 + am/is/are/was/were + 过去分词 (+ by + 执行者)。

何时使用

当动作比执行者更重要时、当执行者未知、显而易见或不重要时,或在正式/学术写作中为了听起来更客观时,使用被动语态。

结构

positiveS + am/is/are/was/were + past participle (+ by agent)

The report was written by the manager.

报告由经理**撰写**。

negativeS + am/is/are/was/were + not + past participle

The letter wasn't signed by anyone.

这封信没有被任何人**签署**。

questionAm/Is/Are/Was/Were + S + past participle?

Was the cake made from scratch?

蛋糕是从头**制作的**吗?

信号词

  • is made
  • was built
  • were told

例句

埃菲尔铁塔于1889年**建成**。

English is spoken all over the world.

英语在全世界**被使用**。

The report was written by the manager.

Mistakes were made.

The winner will be announced tomorrow.

获胜者将于明天**宣布**。

常见错误

The car was crashed by a truck.

The car was hit by a truck.

这不是语法错误,但'crashed'在这个意义上通常是不及物动词。请注意哪些动词可以变为被动语态。

The cake was baked by my mother baked it.

The cake was baked by my mother.

不要在被动语态结构中重复主语/动词。

提示

将主动语态转换为被动语态:宾语变成主语,动词变成'be + 过去分词',原主语(如保留)放在'by'之后。主动:'The chef cooked the meal.' → 被动:'The meal was cooked by the chef.'
