被动语态

被动语态(passive voice)是动词的一种形式，用以说明主语与谓语动词之间的关系。英语的语态共有两种：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。被动语态是动词的一种特殊形式，一般来说，只有需要动作对象的及物动词才有被动语态。汉语往往用"被"、"受"、"给"等被动词来表示被动意义。被动语态由“助动词be+及物动词的过去分词”构成。被动语态的时态变化只改变be的形式，过去分词部分不变。疑问式和否定式的变化也如此。

例如：Tom repairs bikes. - Tom修理单车。(这句话是主动语态)

被动语态为：Bikes are repaired by Tom. - 单车被Tom修理。

被动语态强调的是动作的承受着，而动作的发起者有时可以省略。

1、主动和被动的转换

(1)主动：He praised me. - 他夸奖了我。

被动：I was praised by him. - 我被夸奖了。

一般来说只有及物动词才有被动语态，但有时候一部分不及物动词+介词也可以作为及物动词使用，所以也有被动语态。

例如：

(2)Something happened to me. - 一些事发生在了我身上。

注：happen是不及物动词，没有被动语态，中文里也没有“我被一些事发生了”这样的句式。

(3)I listen to music. - 我听音乐。

被动语态为：The musics are listened to by me. - 音乐被我听。

(4)He takes care of the newcomer to the club. - 他照顾来到俱乐部到新成员。

被动语态为：The new comer to the club is taken care of my him. - 来俱乐部的新成员由他来照顾。

注：例(3)(4)都是不及物动词+及物动词的被动语态。

2、被动语态的时态

被动语态也要区分时态。

1、现在时的被动语态

am/is/are+被动语态

(1)Betty keeps five newborn cats at home. - Betty在家里养了五只新生小猫。

被动语态为：

Five newborn cats are kept by Betty at home. - 五只新生小猫被Betty养在家里

2、过去时的被动语态

(1)They sold many kinds of child seats at the shop. - 在这家商店里，他们卖很多种类的儿童座椅。

Many kinds of child seats were sold (by them) at the shop. - 这家店买很多种类的儿童座椅。(动作的发起者在一些语境中会省略)

(2)The police ran after the thief in the street. - 警察在街上追捕小偷。

The thief was run after by the police in the street. - 小偷在街上被警察追捕。

3、现在进行时的被动语态

am / are / is + being +过去分词

(1)Workers are building the new shopping center. - 工人们正在建这个新的购物中心。

The new shopping center is being building by workers.

4、过去进行时的被动语态

(1)Mr Smith was printing the exam papers. - 史密斯先生正在印试卷。

The exam papers are being printed by Mr Smith.

5、未来时的被动语态

Will + be +过去分词

am/is/are + going to be + 过去分词

(1)They will hold the school sports in October. - 他们会在十月份举办校运动会。

The school sports will be held (by they) in October.

(2)Our class are going to discuss the problem. - 我们班级正要讨论这个问题。

The problem is going to be discussed by our class.

6、其它助动词/情态动词的被动语态

和将来时的被动语态结构相似，即助动词/情态动词+be+过去分词

(1)Every one of us should follow school rules. - 我们每个人都应该遵守校规。

School rules should be followed by every one of us.

注：everyone只能指人，every one of ...可以指人可以指物，取决于of后面接的是人还是物。例如：every one of this books...就指物，意为(这些书中的)每一本书。

7、现在完成时的被动语态

现在完成时的结构为：have/has + 过去分词，其被动语态为：have/has + been + 过去分词

(1)The teacher has already punished the naughty boy. - 这个老师已经惩罚了这个顽皮的男孩。

The naughty boy has been already punished by the teacher.

3、被动语态的否定句/疑问句

1、一般疑问句

(1)Did Judy mess up my room? - Judy弄乱了我的房间吗？

转换为被动语态的肯定句为：

My room was messed up by Judy. - 我的房间被Judy弄乱了

转换为被动语态的一般疑问句：

Was my room messed up by Judy?-我的房间被Judy弄乱了吗？

(2)Must I take the cold medicine three times a day? - 这个感冒药我必须每天吃三次吗？

Must the cold medicine be taken by me three times a day?

2、特殊疑问句

(1)What did he catch? - 他抓到了什么？

What was catched by him? - 什么东西被他抓到了？

注：疑问词what有名词属性，所以在这里可以当主语，回答可以是：The lion was. - 是狮子。

(2)When did the boy break the window? - 他什么时候打破了窗户？

When was the window broken by the boy?

(3)—What language is spoken in Spain. - 西班牙说什么语言？

—Spanish is. - 西班牙语。

(4)Who bought the sweater? - 谁买了这件毛衣？

这句话先转换为被动语态的肯定句：

The sweater was bought by him. - 这件毛衣被他买来。

如何对him提问呢？

Who was the sweater bought by? - 这件毛衣是谁买的呢？

3、否定句

(1)They don't collect recyclable paper every day. - 他们并不每天都回收可回收纸张。

Recyclable paper isn't collected (by them) every day.

(2)We can't see a full moon tonight. - 我们看不到满月。

A full moon can't be seen.

4、特别注意的被动语态

1、动作的发起者并不重要，或者不知道是谁时，通常用被动态且省略by+

(1)Rice is grown in Taiwan. - 台湾种稻米。

(2)My uncle was killed in the war. - 我的叔叔死在战争里。

(3)The novel was translated into many languages. - 这本小说被翻译成很多语言。

2、也有一些句子，不省略动作的发起者，但是也不用b。

例如：

(1)Mr Jackson is know to people in this town. - 杰克森先生在这个小镇上为人所知。

(2)China is know for its good food. - 中国以美食闻名。be know for = be famous for,以...而出名

(3)She is know as a successful singer. - 她作为一个成功的歌唱家很出名。be know as : 作为...很出名。

(4)Those mountains are covered with snow. - 那些山被白雪覆盖。be covered with: 被...覆盖

(5)They are caught in a shower during the barbecue. - 他们烤肉的时候被突如其来的雨淋了。

(6)Shoes are made of leather. - 鞋子由皮革做成。

(7)Bread is made from flour. - 面包由面粉做成。

注：例(6)(7)的区别在于，(6)中皮革变成皮鞋没有质的变化，而面粉变成面包发生了质变。

3、表示“感情/情绪”的被动语态也不用by。

人+be+：

interested in - 对...感兴趣

surprised at - 对...很诧异

astisfied with - 对...很满意

impressed with/by - 对...印象深刻

pleased with - 因为...很愉快

excited about - 对...很兴奋

worried about - 对...很担心

4、授予动词的被动语态

授予动词有两个宾语，也因此有两种被动语态。

(1)The embassy gave me a new passport. - 大使馆给了我一个新的护照。

I was given a new passport by the embassy. - 我被大使馆给了一个新的护照。

A new passport was given to me by the embassy. - 一个新的护照被大使馆给了我。

注：授予动词中，物在人前时介词不可省略，不论是主动语态还是被动语态。只有to在被动语态中可以省略，在主动语态中不可以，其他介词则任何语态中都不可以。

(2)Mom cooked us vegetable soup. - 妈妈给我们煮了蔬菜汤。

被动语态只能是：

vegetable soup was cooked for us by Mom.

而不可以是：

We were cooked...

因为这样看起来像”人被煮“

注：有些授予动词和cook一样，其被动语态不可以以人作主语。

5、主谓宾+宾补结构的被动语态

被动结构为：宾语+be+过去分词+宾补

(1)They painted the board blue. - 他们把木板漆成了蓝色。

The board was painted blue by them.

(2)We selected Jack chairman. - 我们选Jake当主席。

Jack was selected chairman by us.

6、祈使句的被动语态

• 原型动词+宾语

(1)Open the door. - 开门。

Let the door be opened.

• Let + 宾语(人) + 动词原形 + 宾语(物)

(1)Let me tell the truth. - 让我说实话吧。

Let the truth be told by me.

7、使役动词的被动语态

主动——被动：

make/have + 宾语 + do—— make/have + 宾语 + done

let + 宾语 + do —— let + 宾语 + be + done

get + 宾语 + to do——let + 宾语 + done

(1)My mother made / had me run errands for her. - 妈妈让我给她跑腿。

(2)I had my hair cut yesterday. - 我昨天剪了头发。

(6)I was made to do the work by Mr Lin. - 我被林先生要求去做这个工作。

8、感官动词的被动语态

feel, see, watch等 + 宾语 + Ving(表主动) / 过去分词(表被动)

(2)I saw the little boy beaten by him. - 我看到小男孩被他打。

(3)He was seen to beat the little boy by me. - 他打那个小男孩被我看到。(to beat可以换成beating)
