复习被动语态
一、被动语态的概念及构成
1.概念:英语动词有主动语态和被动语态之分。如果主语是动作的发出者,动词就用主动语态;如果主语是动作的承受者,动词就用被动语态。
2.构成:被动语态由“be+动词过去分词”构成。被动语态的时态、人称和数的变化主要体现在助动词be的变化上,其变化形式与系动词be的变化形式完全一样。
二、各种时态的被动语态
一般式 进行式 完成式
现在 am/is/ are done am/is/are being done has/have
been done
过去 was/were done was/were being done had been
done
将来 shall/will be done 无 shall/will

《时间机器》(改编版)
就在今天上午十点钟,所有时间机器中的第一台开始运行了。我对它进行了最后一次检查,然后坐在了皮椅上。我把主控制板上的操纵杆向前推了一英寸,然后又立即向后推。环顾四周,我看到我的实验室和以前一模一样。发生什么事了吗?我以为我的思想欺骗了我。然后我看了下时钟。刚才,大约是十点多一分钟;现在已经快三点半了!

我吸了一口气,抓住操纵杆,把它向前推。实验室在我周围变得模糊不清。我侄女进来拿东西,也许是她的手帕,她显然没看见我。她可能花了一分钟,但对我来说她像火箭一样移动!我把操纵杆推得更远了。夜幕降临,仿佛一盏灯正在熄灭,转眼间,白昼降临了。第二天夜晚降临,接着又跃进到白天,如此反复,越来越快。

时间旅行的奇怪和不愉快的感觉很难解释。感觉好像我在一条蜿蜒的路上开快车。随着我的速度越来越快,实验室的墙壁也随之消失了,我被留在了露天里。太阳和月亮看起来像是被抛向了天空,但很快就有了白天和黑夜的区分。在我的周围,我看见树木像青烟在升起;它们不断生长,蔓延开来,然后死去。我看到巨大的建筑拔地而起,然后像在梦中一样消失。地球的整个表面正在改变,在我眼前融化、流动。我计算了一下,我是以每分钟几百年的速度被时间推着度过的。

我有一种强烈的欲望,想看看眼前闪现的那些随机的东西!我曾多次考虑过停止时间机器的风险。只要我以最快的速度旅行,那就没关系。但如果我停下来,同一个空间被别的东西占据,我们就会被挤在一起,然后像炸弹一样爆炸!我像个不耐烦的傻瓜,使劲向后拉操纵杆。突然一震,时光机侧翻了,我被抛向了空中。
我一时惊呆了,然后听到了雷声。我在雨中坐在机器旁的泥泞里。“热烈欢迎,”我说,“对于一个旅行数千年而到这里的人来说!”

I was stunned for a moment,and then heard the sound of thunder.I was sitting in the rain in some mud next to the machine.“A fine welcome,” I said,“for a man who has travelled thousands of years to be here[8]!”

《时间机器》(改编版)
就在今天上午十点钟,所有时间机器中的第一台开始运行了。我对它进行了最后一次检查,然后坐在了皮椅上。我把主控制板上的操纵杆向前推了一英寸,然后又立即向后推。环顾四周,我看到我的实验室和以前一模一样。发生什么事了吗?我以为我的思想欺骗了我。然后我看了下时钟。刚才,大约是十点多一分钟;现在已经快三点半了!
我吸了一口气,抓住操纵杆,把它向前推。实验室在我周围变得模糊不清。我侄女进来拿东西,也许是她的手帕,她显然没看见我。她可能花了一分钟,但对我来说她像火箭一样移动!我把操纵杆推得更远了。夜幕降临,仿佛一盏灯正在熄灭,转眼间,白昼降临了。第二天夜晚降临,接着又跃进到白天,如此反复,越来越快。
时间旅行的奇怪和不愉快的感觉很难解释。感觉好像我在一条蜿蜒的路上开快车。随着我的速度越来越快,实验室的墙壁也随之消失了,我被留在了露天里。太阳和月亮看起来像是被抛向了天空,但很快就有了白天和黑夜的区分。在我的周围,我看见树木像青烟在升起;它们不断生长,蔓延开来,然后死去。我看到巨大的建筑拔地而起,然后像在梦中一样消失。地球的整个表面正在改变,在我眼前融化、流动。我计算了一下,我是以每分钟几百年的速度被时间推着度过的。
我有一种强烈的欲望,想看看眼前闪现的那些随机的东西!我曾多次考虑过停止时间机器的风险。只要我以最快的速度旅行,那就没关系。但如果我停下来,同一个空间被别的东西占据,我们就会被挤在一起,然后像炸弹一样爆炸!我像个不耐烦的傻瓜,使劲向后拉操纵杆。突然一震,时光机侧翻了,我被抛向了空中。
我一时惊呆了,然后听到了雷声。我在雨中坐在机器旁的泥泞里。“热烈欢迎,”我说,“对于一个旅行数千年而到这里的人来说!”
