知识梳理
一、语态概述
英语动词除了有时态之外,还有语态,表示主语和谓语的不同关系.如果主语是动作的执行者,谓语动词用主动语态;如果主语是动作的对象,谓语动词则用被动语态.动作的执行者用“by”引导的短语表示,但往往被省略;动作的对象则充当了被动语态句中的主语.汉语中常用“挨”“被”“受”等词来表示这个意思.
The boy broke the window.那个男孩把玻璃窗打碎了.(主动语态)
The window was broken by the boy.这扇玻璃窗被那个男孩打碎了.(被动语态)
They watched the children sing that morning.那天早上他们看着孩子们唱歌.(主动语态)
The children were watched to sing that morning.那天早上,孩子们被观看唱歌.(被动语态)
二、被动语态的构成
“助动词be+(及物动词的)过去分词”构成动词被动语态的形式.助动词be有人称、数和时态的变化,其变化规则与be作为系动词的变化完全一样.现以动词ask为例,列表如下:方式
