被动语态的用法归纳
被动语态的用法归纳如下:
构成
(1)助动词+be+及物动词的过去分词
(2)情态动词+be+及物动词的过去分词
现以动词ask为例,将一般现在时和一般过去时的被动语态列表如下
肯定式
否定式
疑问式
一般现在时
I am asked..
He/she is asked...
We/you/they are asked...
I am not asked...
He/She is not asked...
We/you/they are not asked...
Am I asked...?
Is he/she asked...?
Are we/you/they asked...?
一般过去时
I was asked...
He/She was asked ...
We/you/they were asked...
I was not asked...
He/Shewas not asked...
We/you/they were not asked
Was I asked...?
Was he/she asked...?
Were we/you/they asked...?
被动语态常用于陈述事实,一般用在科技文章或新闻报道中。
口诀
一般现在时、一般过去时用be +及物动词的过去分词,be有人称、时、数变。
完成时态have(has)done,被动将been加中间。
一般将来shall(will)do,被动变do为be done。
将来进行无被动,shall(will)be doing。
现在完成时,被动 have(has)been done。
现、过进行be doing,被动be加being done。
情、助、有、是妥安排,一律随新主语变。
否定助后加not,疑问一助置主前。
主语恰是疑问词,直陈语序主在前。
一般情助加be done,双宾多将间宾变。
复合宾语宾变主,宾补、主补相应变。
第二句“be有人称、时、数变”即be有人称、时态和单、复数的变化。“情助”是指情态动词和助动词“must,may,can,shall,will”等一律随新主语(多是主动句中的宾语)来变化。“疑问一助置主前”是说有两个助动词的话,应把主语放在第一助动词之后或把第一助动词置于主语之前。下面详细举例说明之:
主动语态变为被动语态例句:
一般现在时:
主:We believe him.
被:He is believed by us.
一般过去时:
主:He bought his children some pens.
被:Some pens were bought for his children by him.
一般将来时:
主:Everyone will know the truth soon .
被:The truth will be known by everyone.
现在进行时:
主:Mary is making a doll.
被:A doll is being made by Mary.
过去进行时:
主:They were carrying the hurt player.
被:The hurt player was being carried by them .
现在完成时:
主:He has received the letter.
被:The letter has been received by him.
过去完成时:
主:They had built ten bridges.
被:Ten bridges had been built by them
一般现在时/过去时
例:
1、主动:The children gave the foreign guests a warm welcome.
被动:The foreign guests were given a warm welcome by the children.
孩子们热烈地欢迎外宾。
2、
主动:People regard him as brilliant.
被动:He is regarded as brilliant by people.
人们都认为他很有才华。
以上两例都是一般时态用“be done”的事例,be有人称、时、数变,第三人称“foreign friends”是复数,时态一般过去时,所以“be done”就是“were given”,而“People regard him as brilliant”一句,被动后的“be done”就变成第三人称单数“is regarded”的形式了。
被动:
