Grammar 1
Passive voice
英语语态
语态是动词的一种形式,表示主语和动词之间的关系。英语动词有两种语态:主动语态和被动语态。主动语态动词的主语是动作的执行者,而被动语态动词的主语是动作的承受者。被动语态是动词的一种特殊形式,一般说来,只有需要动作对象的及物动词才有被动语态。
被动语态的构成
由助动词be + 及物动词的过去分词(V-ed)构成。助动词be有人称、数和时态的变化
一般现在时被动 am / is / are + done
一般过去时被动 was / were + done
When can we use the passive voice
不知道动作的执行者是谁,或没有必要指出动作的执行者时。
My bike was stolen last night.
Letters are collected at eight every morning.
The desk was made by Master Wang.
The bag was taken away by his sister.
2. 为了强调或突出动作的承受者时。
The students clean the classroom every day.
The classroom is cleaned by the students every day.

宾语
步骤1:把句中的主谓宾划分清楚。
步骤2:把原主动句中的宾语转换为被动语态的主语。
步骤3:把动词改为被动形式即“be+过去分词”,这一步很容易出错,要特别注意。这时be动词的人称和数要随着新的主语(原来主动句中的宾语)而变,同时be动词的时态要按原来主动句的时态保持不变,be动词后面的过去分词就是原来主动句中的动词过去分词。
步骤4:原来句中的主语,如果需要,就放在by后面以它的宾格形式出现,以指明做事的人或物。如果没有必要,可以省略。
步骤5:其他的成分不变。(定语,状语)
