被动语态的构成形式

4.1 被动语态的构成形式    

4.1.1 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    

Visitors are requested not to touch the exhibits.

任务所有准备工作都已完成,我们可以开始了。 

3)      am/is /are being done 现在进行时    

A new cinema is being built here.    

4)      was/were done 一般过去时     

I was given ten minutes to decide whether I should reject the offer.    

我有十分钟时间来决定是否应该拒绝这个议案。 

5)      had been done 过去完成时

6)      was/were being done 过去进行时

10)   should/would have been done 过去将来完成时(少用)

4.1.2 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。    

The baby should be taken good care of by the baby-sitter.    

保姆应该好好照顾宝宝。 

2)有些动词可以有两个宾语,在用于被动结构时,可以把主动结构中的一个宾语变为主语,另一宾语仍然保留在谓语后面。通常变为主语的是间接宾语。     

His mother gave him a present for his birthday.  

他母亲给他送了生日礼物。 

可改为 He was given a present by his mother for his birthday.     

3)当“动词+宾语+宾语补足语”结构变为被动语态时,将宾语变为被动结构中的主语,其余不动。     

Someone caught the boy smoking a cigarette.  

有人抓住那个正在抽烟男孩。 

可改为The boy was caught smoking a cigarette.     

4)在使役动词have, make, get以及感官动词see, watch, notice, hear, feel, observe等后面不定式作宾语补语时,在主动结构中不定式to要省略,但变为被动结构时,要加to。 

Someone saw a stranger walk into the building.  

有人看到一个陌生人走进大楼。 

可改为A stranger was seen to walk into the building.     

5)      有些相当于及物动词的动词词组,如“动词+介词”,“动词+副词”等,也可以用于被动结构,但要把它们看作一个整体,不能分开。其中的介词或副词也不能省略。    

The meeting is to be put off till Friday.    

会议将推迟到周五举行。 

4.1.3 非谓语动词的被动语态     

v.+ing 形式及不定式 to do 也有被动语态(一般时态和完成时态) 。     

I don’t like being laughed at in the public.    

我不喜欢在公众场合被人嘲笑。
