英语动词有两种语态:主动语态和被动语态。主动语态表示主语是动作的执行者,被动语态表示主语是动作的承受者。如:
Many
people
speak
English.(主动语态)
English
is
spoken
by
many
people.(被动语态)
1.被动语态的构成
由于不及物动词不能带宾语,故无被动语态,只有及物动词或相当于及物动词的动词短语才有被动语态,其基本构成方式是“助动词be+过去分词”。
注意:“be+过去分词”结构不一定都是被动语态,有些动词(如
be,feel,look,seem等)后面的过去分词已转化为形容词,用作表语表示状态。如:
My
bike
is
broken.(我的自行车坏了。)
The
door
is
open.(门开了。)
2.主动语态改被动语态的方法
1)将主动语态改为被动语态应注意以下三个方面:①将主动语态的宾语改为被动语态的主语;②将主动语态的谓语动词改为“be+过去分词”结构;③将主动语态的主语改为介词by之后的宾语,放在谓语动词之后(有时可省略)。
2)含直接宾语和间接宾语的主动语态改为被动语态时有两种情况:①把间接宾语改为被动语态的主语,直接宾语仍保留原位;②把直接宾语改为主动语态的主语,此时,间接宾语前要加介词to或
for。如:
He
gave
the
boy
an
apple.→The
boy
was
given
an
apple.(或An
apple
was
given
to
the
boy.)
Her
father
bought
her
a
present.→She
was
bought
a
present
by
her
father.(或A
present
was
bought
for
her
by
her
father.)
3)不带to的动词不定式作宾语补足语的主动语态,改为被动语态时不定式前要加to。如:
They
watched
the
children
sing
that
morning.→The
children
were
watched
to
sing
that
morning.
4)带复合宾语的动词在改为被动语态时,一般把主动语态的宾语改为主语,宾语补足语在被动语态中作主语补足语。如:
We
call
him
Xiao
Wang.→He
is
called
Xiao
Wang.
He
cut
his
hair
short.→His
hair
was
cut
short.
They
told
him
to
help
me.→He
was
told
to
help
me.
