被动语态误用辨析

2.中文：他被所有学生嘲笑。



(误)He was laughed by all the pupils.

3.中文：英语难学。



(误)English is difficult to be learned.



(正)English is difficult to learn.（英语难学=学英语难，也可说It's difficult to learn English。原句的主语实际上是不定式的逻辑宾语，不定式要用主动形式。）

(误)Tom asked me if these islands are belonged to America.



(正)Tom asked me if these islands belonged to America.







5.中文：中国发生了很大变化。

6.中文：战争于一九三七年爆发。



(误)The war was broken out in 1937.

7.中文：我看不清黑板。也许你需要检查你的眼睛。



(误)I can't see the blackboard very well.Perhaps you need to examine your eyes.

8.中文：他命令马上开始工作。

9.中文：他试图不介入政治。



(误)He tried not to have mixed up in politics.



(正)He tried not to get mixed up in politics.（get作系动词，可代替be，后接过去分词表示被动，have无此功能。）







10.中文：据说他很富有。



(误)They say him to have been rich.



(正)He is said to have been rich.（say后不可接不定式，但它的被动语态后可接不定式。）







11.中文：那人被认为是个傻子。



(误)The man thought to be a fool.



(正)The man was thought to be a fool.（主语是动作的承受者而不是发出者，用被动语态。）
