第11講:動詞語態(tài)
和時態(tài)一樣,語態(tài)也是動詞的一種形式,用來說明句中主語和謂語的關系。如果動作由主語執(zhí)行,就可使用主動語態(tài),如果主語不是由主語執(zhí)行,主語是動作的承受者,則可使用被動語態(tài)。由此我們可以看出英語動詞有兩種語態(tài):主動語態(tài)和被動語態(tài)。
被動語態(tài):表示主語是動作的承受者,什么事情被主語做。被動語態(tài)的構成和形式被動語態(tài)由"助動詞be+及物動詞的過去分詞"構成,一定要記住是及物動詞。助動詞必須與主語的人稱和數(shù)一致,注意要與我們前一講學過的八個時態(tài)配合使用。
適合被動語態(tài)的情況:
不知道動作由誰發(fā)出,或由于某種原因沒有必要說明誰發(fā)出動作。如: This table is made of wood. 需要突出或強調動作的承受者時,如: This park was built for children.
注意:主動句中的主語如果是people,they,somebody等含糊的表示"人或人們",沒有確指執(zhí)行者是誰,為被動句時,通常省略"by+執(zhí)行者"。如:The door was opened secretly. But nobody came in.
注意:在主動句里,不定式在make,see,hear等動詞后面作賓語補足語時都不帶to,但變成被動句時,后面的不定式都需帶to。如:He was made to do that work.
主動語態(tài)不能變被動語態(tài)的情況:學了被動語態(tài),別以為主動句和被動句可以隨意轉換,千萬要注意呀!有些主動語態(tài)不能轉換成被動語態(tài)。當賓語是反身代詞時, 如:You should take care of yourself. 當謂語是表狀態(tài)的而不是表具體動作的及物動詞時,如:Does the skirt suit you?
