Activity 3. Studying the rules
How to use the Present continuous passive
① 表示此刻(说话时)正在进行的被动动作。
Eg.As far as I know, he is now being treated in China.
② 表示现阶段正在进行的被动动作,但此动作不一定
在此时此刻发生。
Eg.Many interesting experiments are being carried out these days.
③ 表示经常性的被动动作,常和always, often, constantly等词连用 (表达赞扬或厌恶的感彩)。
Eg.He is always being praised by the teacher.
④ 少数及物动词的进行时表示按计划、安排将要承受某个动作。
Eg.A folk song is being sung next.( 接下来即将演唱一首民歌。)
Eg.A party is being held tonight. (今晚将举行一场派对)
Tips:
(1) 一些表示状态、心理活动、拥有、存在等的动词,一般不用进行的被动语态,常用一般现在时被动语态表示此时此刻或目前主语承受谓语动词的动作。
Eg.Football is loved by more and more people.
(2) “be + under / in等介词 + 名词”结构可表示现在进行时的被动语态的含义。
Eg.The problem is under discussion (= is being discussed) at the meeting.
Eg.The telephone is in use (= is being used) now.
