初中英語被動語態知識點詳解:兩類被動句型的轉換
英語中有一種主動句可以轉換成兩種被動句型,它們通常是一些表示客觀說明的句子,如:
People believed that she is honest. 大家相信她是誠實的。www.51jjcn.cn/yfdq/3123.html
Its believed that she is honest. 大家相信她是誠實的。
She is believed to be honest. 大家相信她是誠實的。
比較上面兩類被動句型可以發現,一類是it+be+過去分詞+that從句,另一類則是主語+be+過去分詞+不定式(其中的主語為前一類句型中that從句中的主語),通常可用于這兩類被動句型的動詞有assume, believe, expect, fear, feel, know, presume, report, say, suppose, think, understand等,比較(同時注意其中時態和動詞形式的變化):
Its expected that he will come soon.= He is expected to come soon. 預計他很快就會來。
Its expected that he has come. =He is expected to have come. 估計他會已經來了。
Its known that is a good singer. =He is known to be a good singer. 大家知道他是位優秀的歌手。
Its known that was a good singer. =He is known to have been a good singer. 大家知道他曾是位優秀的歌手。
