后来，在一个夜深人静、夜不能寐、月黑风高的夜晚，我在辗转反侧间明白了一个道理：中文是很少用“被动”的，除非，是在说一件不好的事情。

【例】

你想到了什么？是不是除了黑了就是绿了，除了打了就是抢了……偷了也成……

有梦想的同学们，不要忘了，你还可以 被！录！取！

好了言归正传，今天咱们来聊聊被动语态的问题。

什么情况下需要/可以使用被动语态？

1） 动作实施者很明显/不知道是谁，没必要提到

The streets are swept every day.

The library was built in 1890.

2） 当动作的实施者泛指人们：acknowledge, assume, believe, claim, consider, estimate, feel, find, know, presume, report, think, say等

He was suspected of receiving stolen goods.

3) 主动句的主语是不定代词one, you, they时，通常被动

This kind of advertisement is seen everywhere.

4) 在主从句中，使用被动语态可以避免改变句子主语

When their mother was ill, neighbors looked after the children.

When their mother was ill, the children were looked after by neighbors.

5) get/have sth done

We had all our money stolen while we were on holiday.

以上这些……………………其实……

都！不！重！要！

重要的是，你会写成什么？你会犯哪些错误？你怎么样才能避免这些错误？

规则1-3解读：

记住，在你不停地重复人做主语，it做主语的时候，想一想：这句话我是否可以通过使用被动语态来实现句型的变化和多样？

【例1】

Schools hold various seminars, workshops and conferences so that teachers are able to have some discussion about effective teaching methods and techniques.

→

Various seminars, workshops and conferences are regularly held so that teachers are able to have some discussion about effective teaching methods and techniques.

【例2】

Students cannot find out their academic problems without a certain period of course-learning.

→

Academic problems will only be revealed after a certain period of course-learning.

【例3】

Travelling to a different place with beautiful scenery and fresh air will help people prevent sub-health and make them more motivated in their studies and works.

→

Travelling to a different place with beautiful scenery and fresh air can be functioned as both a vaccine to prevent sub-health and a motivation for people to work and study harder.

规则5解读：背过就完了

【例】

这一点可以被几乎世界上的每一家大公司证明，包括那些已经在市场上取得了主导位置的，如可口可乐和苹果，他们都投资了大量的钱，使他们的产品和标志显示在电视上，互联网上和报纸上。

This point is well illustrated by almost every company in the world, including those that have already achieved dominance in market such as Coca Cola and Apple, both of which invest large sums of money to have their products and logos shown on TV, the Internet and newspapers.

与规则4相关的错误

【例】

对一小部分人看上去清晰和简单的事情，如果将数千人的意见纳入到考虑范围内，就需要非常严谨的思考了。

Things which seem clear and simple to a small proportion of people will require serious consideration if taking thousands of people’s opinions into account.

对么？对么？对么？到底对不对！？

回答我：taking作为一个分词/动作，主语是什么？是谁take thousands of people’s opinion into account？

——人啊！

那么再回答我：整个句子的主语是什么？

——things啊！

那么再再回答我：分词的逻辑主语和主句的逻辑主语一致么？

——不一致啊！

那么 对么？对么？对么？到底对不对！？

——不对啊！

那么问题来了，怎么改？

——被动啊！

Things which seem clear and simple to a small proportion of people will require serious consideration if thousands of people’s opinions are taken into consideration.

真规则1：单独的分词作状语，分词的逻辑主语要和主句的主语一致

真规则2：状语从句中，只有主语主语和从句主语一致的时候，从句主语才可以省略成，状语从句部分简化为分词/不定式

问题又来了，用主动行不行？

——也不是不行吧

Things which seem clear and simple to a small proportion of people will require serious consideration if we take thousands of people’s opinions into consideration.

两个句子哪一个比较好呢？

——你还记得规则123么？
