被动语态有人称、数和时态的变化,是高中阶段一项重要的英语语法,同学们非掌握不可。本文特将同学们常犯的一些有关被动语态的错误进行综合整理,希望对大家有所帮助。
1. 副词放错位置。
【误】Such a man has been hardly believed.
【正】Such a man has hardly been believed.
【析】often,usually,always,never,hardly,seldom等副词应置于助动词的后边,been,being的前面。
2. 不及物动词错用被动语态。
【误】Great changes have been taken place in China since 1978.
【正】Great changes have taken place in China since 1978.
【析】并不是所有动词都有被动语态。appear,disappear等不及物动词或词组无被动语态。又如:To our surprise,the news spread all over the city overnight. 令我们吃惊的是,这个消息一夜间传遍了全城。
3. 错将动词短语分割或漏掉介词。
【误】The patients have been taken good care.
【正】The patients have been taken good care of.
【析】短语动词在变被动语态时不可分割或省略其中的介词或副词。又如:Every means should be made full use of to solve the problem.
4. 短暂性动词与延续性时间连用错误。
【误】How long has this book been bought?
【正】How long ago was this book bought?
【析】一些特殊动词,如borrow,finish,begin,buy,start, return,marry,open,join等构成的现在完成时的被动语态不能与表示一段时间的状语连用。若要表达相应的意思,则需改换动词或时态。
5. 误将双宾语句中的两个宾语都作了改变。
例如:I have given him the key.变被动句→
【误】Him the key has been given by me.
【正】He has been given the key.
【正】The key has been given (to) him.
【析】双宾语动词变被动语态可将其中的一个宾语变为主语,另一个保留不动。
6. 改被动语态时犯见宾语就进行改动的错误。
例如:I have asked her to help you. 变被动句→
【误】You are helped by her.
【正】She has been asked to help you.
【析】带复合宾语的动词变被动语态时, 只能将宾语变为主语, 原来的宾补保留不动, 改称主语补足语。
7. 犯时态错误。
【误】The silence of the library has been broken only by the sound of pages being turned over.
【正】The silence of the library was broken only by the sound of pages being turned over.
【析】被动语态也有各种时态的变化,要根据需要使用不同的时态。又如:If l am given enough time,I will do it better.给我足够的时间,我会做得更好。该句条件句使用一般现在时,而主句要使用将来时。
8. 犯受汉语影响而没使用被动语态的错误。
【误】I have introduced to Mr. Smith.
【正】I have been introduced to Mr. Smith(by Mr. Wang).
【析】当人作主语时,有些同学不习惯使用被动语态。此句中introduce为及物动词,I是introduce的承受者,表示“我被介绍给……”。
9. 误将有时不用被动语态的动词使用了被动语态。
【误】The door has been opened of itself.
【正】The door has opened of itself.
【析】有些动词如open,break,drop等既可以作及物动词,又可以作不及物动词,若不强调谁是动作的发出者,我们通常用主动语态。of itself意思是“自动地”,因此,此句不可用被动语态。
10. 犯主谓一致性错误。
【误】The prices of air conditioners has been brought down recently
because of continuous rain.
【正】The prices of air conditioners have been brought down recently
because of continuous rain.
【析】有些同学只注意到要使用被动语态,却没有留意主谓一致性错误。由于缺乏主谓一致性知识,造成这种错误比较普遍。
