被动语态基本用法
当句子的主语是动作的执行者时, 谓语的
形式是主动语态。当句子的主语是动作的
承受者时, 谓语要用被动语态。被动语态
由助动词be+过去分词构成, 时态通过be
表现出来。
英语动词有两种语态：
主动语态 (the Active Voice)
被动语态(the Passive Voice)
A. 主动语态表示主语是动作的执行者。
B. 被动语态表示主语是动作的承受者。

The tree was planted by us.
We speak English.
主语
谓语
宾语

谓语
宾语
主动语态
被动语态
They cleaned the classroom yesterday.昨天我们打扫了教室。
The classroom was cleaned by them yesterday.
昨天教室被我们打扫了。
何时使用被动语态呢？
一、行为主体不明确, 不必说出或者无法说出动作的执行者时。如：
Football is played all over the world．
二、不易找到或根本就不可能找到动作的执行者时。如：
My bike was stolen．我的自行车被盗了。
三、汉语中含有“据说”、“据悉”、“有人说”、
“大家说”等时。如：
It is said that one day he climbed to the top
of a house and ……
It was reported that her mother died of SARS.
众所周知…… It is well known that …
据推测说…… It is supposed that …
四、汉语中含有“被”、“由”等词时。如：
Tina is asked to come by Paul．
Tina是被Paul叫来的。
五、某些句子习惯上用被动语态。如：

The Structure is
助动词be+及物动词的过去分词

(be+V.P.P)
被动语态由“助动词be+及物动词的
过去分词”构成, 助动词be有人称、数
的变化,其变化规则与be作为连系动词
时一样。如:
The desk is made of wood.
The desks are made of wood.
