很多學員在英語考試中最難的練習之一就是改寫句子,尤其是被動語態英文。一起跟 ELSA Speak,參考總結被動語態知識如:被動語態公式、被動語態用法、被動語態例句,在英語中複習並牢牢掌握這個知識點!

目錄

被動語態是什麽?

被動語態意思是:用來表示對「承受」某動作的人或物的關注,而不是關注「執行」某動作的人或物。

  • 主動句 (active voice): 主語是執行動作的主要對象(影響動詞)— 誰做什麼?
  • 被動句 (passive  voice): 動作影響主語/主語受動詞影響 – 誰被/可以做什麼?

被動語態用法

用於強調受另一個動作影響的對象,而不是執行該動作的主體

例如: My father punished my brother for playing video games all the night – 我爸爸因為我弟弟整晚玩電子遊戲而懲罰他。

=> My brother was punished by my father for playing video games all night – 我弟弟因為玩了一晚上而被父親懲罰。

當不知道誰/什麼執行了該操作或某事並不重要時

例如: Someone stole my wallet 

=> My wallet was stolen (我的錢包被偷了) – 在這種情況下,我們不說 “Someone stole my wallet” 而我们想强调主體是 “wallet”

被動語態公式

被動語態基本結構

被動語態結構
主動句: S1 + V + O
被動句: S2 + to be + V3/-ed

其中,動詞 “to be” 的被動語態 (passive voice) 根據主動句的時態進行變位,保證主謂和諧的原則。

例如: Annie gives John a lovely gift. 

=> John is given a lovely gift by Annie.

情況動詞有2個賓語,如果您想強調哪個賓語,就把那個賓語作為主語。但是,被動語態的主語通常是間接賓語。

句子中的主語是 they, people, everyone, someone, anyone

如果S——主動語態中的主語是:they,people,everyone,someone,anyone,…那麼就不需要把它放在被動語態中(應用上面提到的被動語態的第二種用法)。

例如: 

  • Someone stole my bike last night – 他們昨晚偷了我的自行車。

=> My bike was stolen last night – 昨晚我的自行車被偷了。

  • They have finished that exercise since last week –  他們上周完成了這個作業。

=> That exercise has been finished since last week –  這個作業已于上周完成。

主語是人或事物

直接引起動作,轉換爲被動語態則用 “by”

例如: Lisa is making a cake – Lisa 正在做蛋糕。

=> A cake is being made by Lisa – 蛋糕正由 Lisa 做。

間接引起動作則用 “with”

例如: I open the door with a key – 我用鑰匙打開了門。

=> The door is opened with a key – 門是用鑰匙打開的。

轉換主動語態成被動語態的方法

將主動語態轉換為被動語態,您按照下列步驟操作:

  • 第一步:確定主動語態中的賓語,用作被動語態中的主語。
  • 第二步:確定主動語態中的時態,將動詞改為被動形式。
  • 第三步:將主動句語態的主語改為賓語,並在前面添加 “by” 或 “with”。上面提到的不定對象可以省略。
主動語態切換成被動語態的方法

例如: She sent his relative a letter.

  • 第一步:確定主動語態中的賓語,用作被動語態中的主語。

主動語態中的賓語是 “his relative” (他的親戚)。

  • 第二步:確定主動語態中的時態,將動詞改為被動形式。

主動語態是過去簡單式 (“sent”). 動詞 “sent” 動詞變位是 “was sent” (被寄) 在過去簡單式。

  • 第三步:將主動句語態的主語改為賓語,並在前面添加 “by” 或 “with”。上面提到的不定對象可以省略。

主動語態中的主語是 “she”。但在被動語態中,“she” 在執行動作中並不起重要作用,因此可以省略或用 “by” 代替,以表示執行動作的施事者。

=> A letter was sent to her relative (by her) – 一封信已被寄給她的親戚 (由她).

英語時態的被動語態結構 

例如:

  • She reads a book every week – 她每周讀一本書。

=> A book is read by her every week – 一本書每周由她讀。

  • They had built the house for ages – 他們很久以前就建了房子。

=> The house had been built by them for ages – 這房子由他們很久以前建的。

被動語態的特殊形式

轉換被動語態的主意 

將賓語代詞傳爲主語代詞

如果主動句中的賓語(受影響的賓語),即賓語代詞,成為被動句中的主語,我們需要將這些單詞轉換為主語代詞,具體: 

賓語代詞 主語
MeI
UsWe
YouYou
HimHe
HerShe
ItIt
ThemThey

Ví dụ: He likes Timmy – 他喜歡 Timmy.
=> Timmy is liked by he. (錯)
=> Timmy is liked by him. (對)

動詞 Fill, Cover, Crowd

對於含有 crowd、fill、cover 這三個動詞之一的句子,當句子由主動變為被動時,我們在賓語前面用 “with” 而不是 “by”。 

例如: Ginger jam fills the jar – 薑餅被裝滿了瓶子。

=> The jar is filled with ginger jam – 瓶子被填滿了薑餅。

被動語態中“by”、地點和時間的順序

在被動句中,“by…”、地點、時間的順序固定為以下順序:

地點 ⇒ “by…” ⇒ 時間

例如: A sunflower branch was left by someone on my desk this morning. 

大致翻譯:今天早上,有人在我的桌子上留下了一朵向日葵。

一些情況不用被動語態 

賓語是與主語相同的反身代詞或所有格形容詞

例如: I love myself – 我愛自己。

如果轉換爲被動語態: Myself is loved by me. =>

在這個例子中,賓語 “myself” 是一個反身代詞,因此句子不能改寫為被動形式。一些常見的反身代詞:myself, himself, herself, themselves, ourselves,…

不及物動詞充當句子中的主要動詞

句子中的 live、exist、appear、die、cry,… 不及物動詞不能變為被動句。

例如: The birds fly on the roof – 鳥兒在屋頂上飛。

在這個例子中,“fly”是一個不及物動詞,所以它不帶有賓語。因此,這句話不存在被動語態。

一些動詞: have (當它的意思是 “有” – 擁有), lack, belong to, resemble, seem, appear, look, be

在英文語法中,有一些特殊動詞通常不用於被動語態,因為它們是狀態性或所有格的。這些動詞包括:“Have”(擁有)、”lack”, “belong to”, “resemble”, “seem”, “appear”, “look”, 和 “be”。因為它們不表達動作,所以不能變成被動句。

例如: He looks at his puppy – 他看着他的狗狗。

在此示例中,“looks” 是一個不及物動詞,因此它不能更改為被動形式。

如果把上面的句子轉換成: A puppy is looked at by him. =>
