the teacher came into the classroom,followed by the student.和the teacher came into the classroom,following the student. 这两句翻译有什么区别， 哪个是‘老师被跟着。
被动主动分别是哪个

Answer 1

第一例子，teacher 与follow是被动，因此用followed,教师是被学生跟着，直译:教师走进教室，被学生跟着。意译:学生跟着老师，进入教室。第二个例子，teacher 与follow 是主动，因此用following,教师是follow动作的发出者，教师跟着学生。教师跟着学生进入教室。
