长期以来,西方的思维方式被描述为“具体的”、“分析的”、“客观地”和“精确的”;而中国的思维被描述为“整体的”、“辩证的”、“主观的”和“模糊的”。本文在英汉思维差异的基础上,分析了英汉两种语言的语态选择,即被动与主动。 For a long time, western ways of thinking were described as “concrete ” “analyzed ”, “objectively ” and “exact ”; whereas Chinese thinking was described as “whole ”,“ Dialectical ”,“ subjective ”, and“ vague ”. Based on the differences of thinking between English and Chinese, this thesis analyzes the choice of the two English and Chinese modes of speech, that is, passive and active.
