Passive Voice
英语的语态有主动语态和被动语态两种。
决定动词用主动语态还是被动语态主要看动词和主语的关系。
如果主语是动作的执行者,也就是说它们是主动关系,此时动词用主动语态;
如果主语是动作的承受者,也就是说它们是被动关系,此时动词则用被动语态。
1被动语态由“助动词be+done”构成,其中be有时态、人称和数的变化。
English is taught in most schools.
The children are not allowed to play on the grass.
1.被动语态的构成
被动语态 构成 例句
1 一般 现在时 am/is/are+ done We are given a lot of homework to do.
2 一般 过去时 was/were+ done They were given a warm welcome.
3 现在 进行时 am/is/are + being+ done The bridge is being repaired at present.
4 过去 进行时 was/were + being+ done They told me that the case was being investigated.
5 现在 完成时 have/has been +done The documents for which they were searching have been recovered.
被动语态 构成 例句
6 过去 完成时 had been+ done He asked if Mary had been sent to hospital.
7 一般 将来时 will/shall be+ done Check carefully , so any mistakes will be caught.
8 过去 将来时 would/should be+ done He knew he would be punished for it.
一、注意事项
1.“be+过去分词”并非都是被动语态,系动词be, feel,seem,look等词后面的过去分词已转化为形容词,作表语用,构成系表结构,表示某种状态。
I'm interested in mathematics.
He seems unsatisfied with his work.
2.英语中有一些短语常以被动形式呈现,但表示主动意义。
She is usually dressed in white.
The boy was seated by the window.
3.“get+过去分词”也表被动。
We got separated when we entered the hall.
4.某些情况用主动语态来表示被动含义。
(1)read, write, sell, wash, clean, wear, cook, lock, shut, dry, 等动词,用来说明主语的性质特征而不强调被执行者的动作时,用主动形式表达被动意义,且常与not,hardly,well,easily,badly,nicely等副词连用。
The door doesn't ________ (open) easily.
Bikes of that kind ______ (sell) well.
That kind of bikes _____ well.
open
sell
sells
(2)某些表示“发生”的动词(短语),如happen, take place,occur,break out,burst out等没有被动语态,但其意义中包含被动概念。
The war ___________ (break) out in 1937.
Heavy rains _________(occur) during a summer monsoon.
5.不能用于被动语态的及物动词或动词短语:fit, have, wish, cost, agree with, arrive at/in, consist of, succeed in, suffer from, take part in, walk into, belong to等。
This key just fits the lock.
Your story agrees with what has already been heard.
broke
occurred
二、不定式的被动形式
动词不定式具有动词的特点,可以有自己的宾语和状语,还有时态和语态特征。当不定式的逻辑主语是其动作的承受者时,不定式一般要用被动形式。
(一)不定式的被动形式的构成
形式 结构 意义
一般式 to be done 和谓语动词同时发生或在谓语动词之后发生
完成式 to have been done 发生在谓语动词之前
(二)用法
1.作主语
It's a pity to be kept in the house in such fine weather.
2.作宾语
The boy expected to be given an opportunity to try again.
3.作表语
Her dream is to be sent to study abroad.
4.作宾语补足语或主语补足语
The captain ordered the flag to be raised.
The book is said to have been translated into French.
5.作定语
There were plans to be made at once.
He was the last one to be asked to speak at the meeting.
6.作状语
His mother left the small village, never to be seen again.
We hurried to the station only to be told that the train had left.
(三)不定式的主动表被动用法
1.动词不定式在名词后面作定语时,不定式和名词之间有逻辑动宾关系,同时又和句中另一名词或代词构成逻辑主谓关系,这时要用不定式的主动形式表示被动含义。
He has a family to support.
(to support与family之间是逻辑动宾关系,与he之间是逻辑主谓关系。)
2.在某些“形容词+不定式”作表语或宾语补足语的结构中,句子的主语或宾语又是动词不定式的逻辑宾语时,这时常用不定式的主动形式表达被动意义。这些形容词有nice,easy,fit,hard,difficult, important, impossible, pleasant, interesting等。
That question is difficult to answer.
微点拨:若句子的主语不是不定式的逻辑主语时,不定式要用被动式。
(不定式的被动语态作定语,you不是post动作的执行者。)
我要去邮局,你有信要寄吗?
I'll go to the post office. Do you have a letter to be posted?
单句语法填空
1.They are going to________ (send) to work in Tibet for two years.
2. I have to go to work by taxi because my car ______________ (repair) at the garage.
3.Much progress__________________________ (make) in China with the help of the people's hard work.

to be told
6.I can’t stand ________________(laugh) at.
7. _____________ (criticize) is an unpleasant experience.
being laughed
Being criticized
系动词(prove):后来被发现是;最终显现为=turn out 无被动结构。其后可接“(to be)+ adj./prep. -phrase”或介词短语作表语。
The promotion proved to be a turning point in his career.
Robots have proved very useful in the handing of hot or dangerous components.
If the new home __________ (prove) unsuitable, they will return to their shells to wait in a queue.
proves
在处理热的或危险的部件时
2.被动语态的用法
(1)当我们不知道谁是动作的执行者,或者没有必要指出谁是动作的执行者时。
Every classroom in this school is being equipped with a new TV set.
Give blood if you can and many lives will be saved.
(2)为了强调动作的承受者时。
Visitors are requested not to touch the exhibits.
(3)出于策略、委婉、礼貌等不提出动作的执行者时。
You are said to be active recently.
It is reported that they will come to our city for a visit.
3.含有情态动词的被动语态
含有情态动词的被动语态由“情态动词+be+过去分词”构成。如:
You might be asked to speak at the meeting.
Whenever (they are) known , such facts should be reported.
All the above items can be obtained from our office.
Something must be done to stop these accidents.
These books may be appreciated better by older children.
4.短语动词的被动语态
“动词+介词或副词”构成的短语动词,以及“动词+名词+介词”构成的短语动词,在被动语态中不要漏掉后面的介词或副词。如:
A man who is much talked about is always very attractive.
Many interesting experiments are carried out in our laboratory.
5.关于“get+过去分词”
在英语口语中,有时可用“get+过去分词”构成被动语态。如:
I got dressed as quickly as I could.我尽快穿上衣服。
I wasn’t surprised she got elected after all the efforts she had made.
We got delayed because of the holiday traffic.
I tried to find my way round London without a map and got lost.
注:“get+过去分词”这种结构比较常见的搭配有
get arrested、get caught、get confused、get delayed、get divorced、get dressed、get drowned、get drunk、get elected、get engaged、get hit、get killed、get lost、get married、get stuck等。
6.主动形式表示被动意义
(1)有些系动词,如:taste、sound、prove、feel、look、smell、remain、appear等本身含有被动意义。
They often eat in that restaurant because the food there tastes delicious.
What he said at the meeting proved true.
(2)表示主语的某种属性特征的动词,如:read、write、sell、open、shut、begin、wash、wear、cut、lock、play、drive等。这类动词后面常接一个修饰语。
The coat dries easily.
Books of this kind sell well.

Rewrite the paragraph using the passive voice where appropriate.
Since ancient times, storytelling has been a way to share and pass on wisdom. One important early work that did so was Aesop’s Fables, a collection of stories that history credits to Aesop, a Greek storyteller. People believe that he lived in Ancient Greece between 620 BC and 564 BC. Most of the characters in his stories are animals, the qualities of which Aesop used to reflect human traits and wisdom. Each fable teaches a life lesson that Aesop summarises in a short phrase at the end of the story, called a moral. Today, children and adults all around the world still enjoy Aesop’s Fables.
