被動語態的用法介紹
被動語態是語教材中的重點語法之一，同時也是在英文寫作中經常用到的“高級精彩語法”之一。顧名思義，被動語態所表達的正是“具有被動含義的句子”，即“什麼/誰被誰怎樣了”，其一般形式爲“be+動詞的過去分詞”，根據不同的時態、不同的場合對應不同的具體形式。下面小編爲大家分享被動語態的用法，歡迎大家閱讀。
一、被動語態的用法
1、不知道或沒有必要指出誰是動作的執行者時。
The bridge was built last year.這座橋是去年建造的。
He was elected chairman.他被選爲主席。
2、 當更加強調動作的承受者時。此時動作的執行者由by引導置於謂語動詞之後，不需要時可以省略。
The room hasn't been cleaned yet.房間還沒有打掃。
The tiger was killed by him.老虎被他殺死了。
3、當動作的執行者不是人時，多用被動語態。如：
The window was blown by wind.窗戶被風吹開了。
The whole village has been washed away by the flood.整個村莊都被洪水沖走了。
4、表示客觀的說明常用"It is + 過去分詞."句型。
It is said that Lucy has gone abroad.據說露茜已經出國了。
It is believed that he is a spy. (=He is believed to be a spy.)大家相信他是個間諜。
其它常見的"It is + 過去分詞+ that"句型還有
It is reported that…據報道
It is said that…據說
It is believed that…大家相信
It is suggested that…有人建議
二、主動語態變爲被動語態
1、主動語態變爲被動語態的步驟：
(1)將主動句的賓語變爲主語：
注意：如果主動句的賓語是代詞，需將其由賓格變爲主格。如：
Tom killed him. → He was killed by Tom.
(2)將動詞改爲"be+過去分詞"。
注意
They held a meeting yesterday. → A meeting was held by them yesterday.
他們昨天開會了。
(3)將主動語態的主語改爲be…放在謂語動詞後。
注意：如果原主語是代詞，則應由主格變爲賓格。
He sang a song. → A song was sung by him.
2、主動語態變爲被動語態的注意事項：
(1)主動句中的主語如果是people, we, you, they, somebody等含糊地表示"人們"、"大家"的單詞，變爲主動句時，通常刪去"by…"，但原主語被強調者除外。如：
They set up this hospital in 1975. → This hospital was set up in 1975.
這所醫院建於1975年。
Only he can finish the job. → 只有他能完成這項工作。
The job can be finished only by him.這項工作只能由他來完成。
(2)含有雙賓語，即直接賓語和間接賓語的句子，每個賓語都可變爲被動語態的主語，即其被動語態有兩種形式。但多以間接賓語作主語。
Jack told us the truth.傑克告訴了我們真相。
We were told the truth by Jack.
The truth was told (to) us by Jack.
三、動詞的主動形式表示被動之意
以主動形式表示被動之意的動詞多爲連繫動詞，如：look, feel, smell等。下列動詞沒有被動式：happen， cost，take，have
An accident was happened yesterday.(×)昨天發生了一起事故。
An accident happened yesterday.( )
The flower smells sweet.這花聞起來很香。
The watch looks good.這表看起來很好。
This book sells well.這本書暢銷。
