Unit 3 Language in use
被动语态(1)
如果想要表达“孩子们喜爱这本书”，“我们每天使用电脑”，我们会说： Children love this book. We use computers every day.
如果想要说“这本书为孩子们所喜爱”，“电脑天天都要使用到”，则可以这样表达： This book is loved by children.
Computers are used (by us) every day.
这两组句子表达的重点有所不同。第一组句子侧重动作的发出者，强调某人做了什么，而第二组句子侧重动作的承受者，强调某事/某物如何。因此，当我们要突出某个行为的执行者时，应使用主动语态(第一组句子)来表达，而要强调动作的承受者时，就要使用被动语态(第二组句子)来表达。
一般现在时被动语态的各类句式总结如下：
1. 肯定句：主语+am / is / are+动词过去分词(+by+动作执行者)
2. 否定句：主语+ am / is / are not+动词过去分词(+by+动作执行者) 3. 一般疑问句：Am / Is / Are +主语+动词过去分词(+by+动作执行者)
4. 特殊疑问句：特殊疑问词+ am / is / are + 主语+动词过去分词 (+by+动作执行者) e.g. This song is still loved by many young people today. 这首歌现在仍然受到许多年轻人的喜爱。(肯定句) This camera is not made in Japan. 这部相机不是日本制造的。(否定句) —Is the film called Snow White?
这部电影是叫《白雪公主》吗？(一般疑问句) —Yes, it is. / No, it isn’t. 是的。/不是。
—How many people were mentioned in the conversation? 对话中提到了几个人？(特殊疑问句) —Two. 两个。
