规则逐条讲
这个主题讲的形式
时态体现在 to be 上,过去分词保持不变。
The rooms are cleaned every day.房间每天都有人打扫。
执行者重要时,用 by 引出。
The bridge was designed by a Swiss engineer.这座桥是一位瑞士工程师设计的。
工具或手段用 with,不用 by——虽然中文两者都可以说“用”或“由”。
The door was opened with a master key.门是用一把万能钥匙打开的。
情态动词后面接 be 加过去分词。
This form must be signed.这份表格必须签字。

再看 6 个例句

中文母语者最容易踩的坑
注意
中文说“事故发生在午夜”,动词“发生”本身没有宾语。很多学习者觉得事故是“被动”遇上的,于是写出 The accident was happened at midnight。这是错的:happen、arrive、die、appear 这类不及物动词没有宾语可以变成主语,所以根本没有被动语态。另一个常见错误是丢掉 be:“信昨天寄出去了”不是 The letter sent yesterday,而是 The letter was sent yesterday。

被动语态由 to be 的某个形式加动词的过去分词构成。时态只体现在 be 上,过去分词永远不变。会变 to be 的时态,就能立刻造出任何时态的被动句:is cleaned、was cleaned、has been cleaned、will be cleaned。
主动句的宾语变成被动句的主语。动作的执行者可以用 by 引出,但不是必须的;事实上,大多数被动句根本不提执行者。被动语态之所以出现,往往正是因为执行者不知道是谁、不重要,或者有意不说。
中文里,这层意思常常靠语序和语境就够了:“作业写完了”“饭做好了”,动词本身没有任何被动标记。英语不行——只要主语不是动作的执行者,就必须有 be 加过去分词:The homework is done,Dinner is ready。反过来,中文的“被”也不能见到就换成被动:“我被偷了钱包”在英语里要说 My wallet was stolen 或 I had my wallet stolen,绝不能说 I was stolen my wallet。
