初中英语语法提炼:主动语态与被动语态的转换
初中英语语法中,主动语态与被动语态的转换是一个重要的知识点。掌握这一知识点,对于提高英语写作和表达能力具有重要作用。本文将系统介绍主动语态与被动语态转换的各种情况,包括"主+谓+宾"结构、"主+谓+间宾+直宾"结构、"主+谓+宾语+宾补"结构、短语动词的被动语态、祈使句的被动语态以及宾语从句的被动语态。
语态是谓语动词的一种形式,用来说明主语和谓语之间的关系。英语中的语态分主动语态和被动语态两种。主动语态表示主语是动作的执行者;被动语态表示主语是动作的承受者,或者说主语是动作的对象,即主语是谓语动词的逻辑宾语。如:
- We clean the room every day.(我们每天打扫房间。)(we是clean的执行者)
- The room is cleaned every day.(房间每天都打扫。)(room是clean的对象)
注意:由于被动语态的主语是谓语动词的逻辑宾语,因此只有及物动词才可能有被动语态;不及物动词没有被动语态。
"主+谓+宾"结构
由主动语态变为被动语态时,要注意以下几点:
- 把主动句的宾语变为被动句的主语;
- 把主动句的谓语动词变为be+过去分词形式;
- 把主动句的主语放到介词by后面组成介词短语,置于被动句后作状语。
例如:
Taotao broke the window yesterday.(昨天涛涛打破了那扇窗子。)
→The window was broken by Taotao yesterday.(那扇窗子是涛涛昨天打破的。)
His speech moved us deeply.(他的讲话使我们深受感动。)
→We were deeply moved by his speech.(我们被他的讲话深深感动了。)
注意:
① 被动语态中的by短语在意思明确的情况下可以省略。如:
- A new law has been passed.(一项新的法律已被通过。)
- Many people were killed in the war.(战争中有许多人丧生。)
② 主动语态如果是带no的否定句,变为被动语态时常常用no,neither或never等。如:
- No one has ever beaten the boy at tennis.(在网球比赛中没有人打败过那个男孩。)
- →The boy has never been beaten at tennis.(在网球比赛中那个男孩从未被打败过。)
③ 否定句中带有any构成的不定代词,变为被动语态时,主语用由no构成的否定代词。如:
- We didn't notice anything special in his work.(我们没有注意到他工作中特殊的地方。)
- →Nothing special was noticed in his work.(他工作中没什么特殊的地方被注意到。)
"主+谓+间宾+直宾"结构
及物动词buy,give,borrow,lend,send,bring,take,ask,teach,show,offer,tell,sell,pay等在句中常常带双宾语,一个指人,一个指物。指人的叫间接宾语,简称间宾;指物的叫直接宾语,简称直宾。含有双宾语的句子由主动语态变为被动语态时,通常只将其中一个宾语作为被动语态的主语。其变化规则为:
- 将间接宾语变为被动语态的主语,直接宾语保留在动词后不变。如:
They offered me a job in the company.(他们在公司里给我提供了一份工作。)
→I was offered a job in the company.
Li Hua showed me his new shoes.(李华给我看他的新鞋子。)
→I was shown his new shoes by Li Hua.
- 将直接宾语变为被动语态的主语,谓语动词与间接宾语之间要加上介词to或for。如:
Father gave me a nice present.(爸爸给了我一件精美的礼物。)
→A nice present was given to me by Father.
Mr.Lin booked me a room in the hotel.(林先生在旅店给我订了个房间。)
→A room was booked for me by Mr.Lin in the hotel.
注意:
① 间接宾语前加to的动词有bring,give,hand,pay,lend,offer,pass,post,send,show,take,teach,tell,throw,write等;
② 间接宾语前加for的动词有buy,call,cook,do,get,make,save,book(预订)等。
③ 只用直接宾语作为被动语态的主语的动词bring,do,make,pass,sell,sing,telegraph,write等。如:
He wrote her a letter.(他给她写了一封信。)
→A letter was written to her by him.
My sister made me a doll.(我姐姐给我做了一个玩具。)
→A doll was made for me by my sister.
④ 用间接宾语作被动语态的主语的动词有answer,refuse,save,spare等。如:
- He answered me the question.(他回答了我那个问题。)
- →I was answered the question by him.
"主+谓+宾语+宾补"结构
含有复合宾语(宾语+宾语补足语)的主动句变为被动句时,将主动句的宾语变为被动句的主语,而主动句中的宾语补足语保留不动,成为主语补足语。常见动词有call,make,choose,regard,name,believe,paint,think等。如:
We painted the wall white.(我们把墙漆成白色。)
→The wall was painted white by us.(墙被我们漆成了白色。)
I saw the boys playing by the river just now.(我刚才还见那些男孩在河边玩耍。)
→The boys were seen playing by the river just now.(刚才那些男孩还被看见在河边玩耍。)
Someone found the windows broken.(有人发现窗子被打破了。)
→The windows were found broken.(窗子被发现打破了。)
注意:
① 感官动词see,watch,feel,hear,notice,listen to,look at等和使役动词have,make等后接不带to的动词不定式作宾语补足,但变为被动语态时要加上to。如:
They heard Alice sing a moment ago.(他们刚才听见了艾丽丝唱歌。)
→Alice was heard to sing a moment ago.(刚才听到艾丽丝在唱歌。)
They made me work without rest.(他们逼我不停地干活。)
→I was made to work without rest.(我被迫不停地干活。)
② 动词help后接不定式作宾语补足语时,to可省也可保留,但变被动语态时要保留to,如:
- My brother helped me (to)wash my clothes.(我哥哥帮我洗衣服。)
- →I was helped by my brother to wash my clothes.(我被哥哥帮助洗衣服。)
短语动词的被动语态
(1) 有些短语动词在意义上相当于及物动词,也有被动语态。这些短语动词在主动句中是搭配紧凑且不可分割的词组,所以在变为被动句时不可丢掉原短语中的介词或副词。如:
They often laugh at the old man.(他们常常嘲笑那位老人。)
→The old man was often laughed at.(那位老人常遭人嘲笑。)
We have sent for a doctor.(我们已派人去请医生了。)
→A doctor has been sent for.(已派人去请医生了。)
You must hand in papers at 3 o'clock.(你们必须在三点钟交试卷。)
→Papers must be handed in at 3 o'clock.(试卷必须在三点钟交。)
(2) 在“动词+名词+介词” 结构中,这个名词也可以变成被动句的主语,也就是说,这种结构有两种变为被动句的方法。如:
People paid no attention to me.(人们没有注意到我。)
→No attention was paid to me.
→I was paid no attention to.
Young men must make full use of time.(年轻人必须充分利用时间。)
→Time must be made full use of by young men.
→Full use must be made of time by young men.
You should take good care of children.(你应当照顾好孩子们。)
→Children should be taken good care of (by you).
→Good care should be taken of children (by you).
注意:
此类短语动词主要有make contributions to对……作出贡献,make fun of 取笑,make preparations for为……做好准备,make use of利用,take care of照顾,take notice of注意到,pay attention to注意,set fire to放火等。
祈使句的被动语态
有时部分祈使句也可变为被动式。肯定的祈使句的被动语态结构是Let+宾语+be+过去分词;否定的祈使句的被动语态结构是Don't+let+宾语+be+过去分词(或Let+宾语+not+be+过去分词)。如:
Open the door.(打开门。)
→Let the door be opened.
Let them clean the room.(叫他们打扫房间。)
→Let the room be cleaned.
Let us do it at once.(让我们立即开始。)
→Let it be done at once.
Don't let her do such a thing.(不要让她做这种事。)
→Don't let such a thing be done by her.
宾语从句的被动语态
主动句是含有宾语从句的复合句,在变成被动句时,常用it作形式主语,把主动句中的谓语动词变为被动语态,原宾语从句不动。如:
They believe that the meeting is a success.(他们相信会议是成功的。)
→It is believed that the meeting is a success.
Someone said that the story was false.(据说这个故事是假的。)
→It was said that the story was false.
People say that he has died.(据说他死了。)
→It is said that he has died.
They think that he has made great progress。他们认为他大有进步。
→It is thought that he has made great progress.
→He is thought to have made great progress.
注意:
① 如果宾语从句是“主语+及物动词+宾语”的结构,宾语从句也可以变成被动语态。
- My sister told me that Mother scolded her yesterday.(妹妹对我说昨天母亲斥责她了。)
- I was told that my sister was scolded by Mother yesterday.
② 能接这类宾语从句的动词有believe,consider,expect,know,report,suppose,think等。
