在现在完成时态中,be是have/has+been;在一般将来时态中,be是will+be。
如:Right now the new product is being developed in the laboratory.
An agreement has been put forward.
3.当用被动语态的时候,以下几点需要注意:
1)我们通常用by来引导动作的发出者,但当没必要提及动作的发出者或动作的发出者不重要,或很难说出动作的发出者是谁时,动作的发出者可以省略不提。
如:he believes that VR films will be accepted by viewers.
Both the headsets and the gloves are connected to the RealCine computer system.
动词give,lend,offer,send,tell和show后面可以接两个宾语,分别指人和物。当这些 动词用做被动语态的时候,我们通常把动词后面接的人做为句子的主语;有些时候,也会把物作为主语。
如:They are offered headsets and gloves in the cinema.
Headsets and gloves were offered to them in the cinema.
3)在主动语态中,一些动词后面往往接宾语和动词原形。在被动语态中,动词原形前面要接to。
如:I saw him go there. He was seen to go there.
4) 有时候,在被动语态中,get可以替换be。如:get changed, get dressed, get hurt 如:Please wait a while. I ll just go and get changed.
有些动词主动形式表被动含义。
如:This kind of computer sells well in China. Your article reads well.
状态动词不能用于被动语态。
如:I have many science books.
VR films belong to the latest wave of new technology.
被动语态的其它特殊形式:
it+动词的被动语态+that从句
如:It is said that the technology behind RealCine is virtual reality.
主语+动词的被动语态+to do
如:The technology behind RealCine is said to be virtual reality.
类似的动词还有:believe, report, suppose, know, prove 等。
二 情态动词和被动语态
1.在被动语态中用情态动词来表达能力,可能性,责任,允诺等。
如:Firefighter could be trained using RealCine.
2.情态动词被动语态的形式是:情态动词+be+动词的过去分词
如:The position of the viewer can be calculated at any time.
注意其它情态动词被动语态的用法:
