被动语态: Past Simple passive

定义 / 说明

Past Simple 被动语态用于表达过去“某事被做了”,且执行者未知、不重要或非焦点。结构是 was/were + past participle。它常见于新闻、事实写作和过去事件描述中,重点是结果而非执行者。常与明确过去时间连用,如 yesterdaylast yearin 2023。使用被动可以突出“发生了什么”。

关键规则

  • 结构:was/were + past participle
  • 单数主语用 was,复数主语用 were
  • 重点放在“发生了什么”,不是“谁做的”。
  • 只有执行者重要时才加 by + person
  • 常与明确过去时间标记连用。

例句

  • The window was broken during the storm. - 窗户在暴风雨中被打碎了。
  • The email was sent yesterday. - 邮件昨天发出了。
  • Two new offices were opened last year. - 去年开了两家新办公室。
  • The problem was solved in an hour. - 问题在一小时内被解决了。
  • Their names were not included on the list. - 他们的名字没有被列入名单。
