    語(yǔ)法 Grammar in use
    被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)(6)
    (1)在第10課、第21課、第34課、第45課與第58課的語(yǔ)法中,我們學(xué)習(xí)了被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)的基本形式、它與情態(tài)助動(dòng)詞的連用、它在動(dòng)詞+賓語(yǔ)+不定式結(jié)構(gòu)中的使用以及它在過(guò)去完成時(shí)中的使用:
    Recently it was damaged by a visitor.
    近它被一個(gè)客人弄壞了。(一般過(guò)去時(shí))
    Passing planes can be heard night and day.
    過(guò)往飛機(jī)日夜不絕于耳。(與情態(tài)助動(dòng)詞連用)
    Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the
    noise.
    有一百多人肯定是被噪音逼得已經(jīng)棄家遠(yuǎn)去。(must與被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)的完成式連用)
    The bicycle was being sent to his home by train.
    人們正用火車(chē)給他把自行車(chē)送回家。(被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)用于過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí))
    He never expected the thief to be arrested.
    他從未指望那小偷能被逮著。(被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)用于復(fù)合賓語(yǔ)中的不定式結(jié)構(gòu)中)
    The whole village soon learnt that a large sum of money had been lost.
    整個(gè)村子很快知道,有一大筆錢(qián)丟失了。(用于過(guò)去完成時(shí))
    (2)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)還可以用于介詞+動(dòng)名詞結(jié)構(gòu)中。介詞(after, before,
    on)+動(dòng)名詞這個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)通常相當(dāng)于一個(gè)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句。如果兩個(gè)動(dòng)作中有一個(gè)在另一個(gè)開(kāi)始之前已經(jīng)完成,則可以用
    after+動(dòng)名詞的完成式表示第1個(gè)動(dòng)作;如果只表示先后順序,則可用after(或 before)+動(dòng)名詞結(jié)構(gòu);
    on+動(dòng)名詞通常表示兩個(gè)動(dòng)作幾乎同時(shí)發(fā)生:
    After having been instructed to drive out of town, I began to acquire
    confidence.
    在接到把車(chē)開(kāi)出城的指令后,我開(kāi)始有了信心。
    The man called the police after being robbed.
    那人遭搶劫后給警方打了電話。
    He killed a child before being arrested.
    他在被捕前殺死了一個(gè)孩子。
    On/After being told that her mother was seriously ill, she hurried back to
    England.
    她得知母親病重后連忙回到英國(guó)。
    被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)用于介詞+動(dòng)名詞結(jié)構(gòu)在英語(yǔ)中是很正式的用法,一般不用于口語(yǔ)中。
    (3)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)用于 want后面的不定式中時(shí),to be可以省略:
    I want the luggage fetched from the hotel this afternoon.
    我希望有人今天下午去把行李從旅館取回來(lái)。
    want后跟被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí)往往表示希望別人完成所說(shuō)的動(dòng)作。
    (4)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)還可用于過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí),以強(qiáng)調(diào)動(dòng)作的持續(xù)性:
    I 'd like to ask a few questions about your latest film.
    我想就您近拍的電影問(wèn)幾個(gè)問(wèn)題。
    Not again! I was being asked about the film all day yesterday!
    又來(lái)了!昨天一整天都有人問(wèn)我這電影的事!
