英語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞語(yǔ)態(tài):需要注意的問題
?
? ? ? 語(yǔ)態(tài)表示主語(yǔ)和謂語(yǔ)的關(guān)系。語(yǔ)態(tài)有兩種:主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)和被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。如果主語(yǔ)是動(dòng)作的執(zhí)行者,或者是說動(dòng)作是由主語(yǔ)完成的,要用主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài),如:We speak Chinese in China.在中國(guó)我們說漢語(yǔ);如果主語(yǔ)是動(dòng)作的承受者,或者是說動(dòng)作不是由主語(yǔ)而是由其他人完成的,則用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài),如:Chinese is spoken by us in China.在中國(guó)漢語(yǔ)被我們說。

使用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)應(yīng)注意的幾個(gè)問題
1. 不及物動(dòng)詞無(wú)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。
What will happen in 100 years.
The dinosaurs disappeared about 65 million years ago.
2. 有些動(dòng)詞用主動(dòng)形式表示被動(dòng)意義。
This pen writes well.
This new book sells well.
3. 感官動(dòng)詞或使役動(dòng)詞使用省略to的動(dòng)詞不定式,主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)中不帶to,但變?yōu)楸粍?dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí),須加上to。
例:make somebody do something→somebody+ be +made to do something
? ? ? see somebody do something→somebody +be +seen to do something
The boss made the little boy do heavy work.→The little boy was made to do heavy work by the boss.?
4. 如果是接雙賓語(yǔ)的動(dòng)詞改為被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí),直接賓語(yǔ)(物)作主語(yǔ),那么動(dòng)詞后要用介詞,這個(gè)介詞是由與其搭配的動(dòng)詞決定。
He gave me a book.→A book was given to me by him.
He showed me a ticket.→A ticket was shown to me by him.
5. 一些動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)用于被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí),動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)應(yīng)當(dāng)看作一個(gè)整體,而不能丟掉其中的介詞或副詞。
We can’t laugh at him. →He can’t be laughed at by us.
