be动词的过去时用法详解(精选2篇)
1.当一个句子的谓语表示一个动作,主语和它存在被动关系时,一般用被动语态表达。而在be+过去分词作表语结构中,从形式上看与被动语态相似,但从意义上分析,两者存在着明显的差异,被动结构强调一种被动关系;而表语结构强调的是主语所显示出的状态。试比较:
(1) The story was told by a famous fortune teller.这个故事是由一个有名的占卜者讲述的。
该句中强调的是告诉这个动作与主语故事之间的被动关系,它是典型的被动结构。
(2) This story is well told.这个故事讲得真好。
本句强调这个故事的特点是讲得好,属于be+过去分词充当表语结构。
(3) The museum is usually closed at 8 P.M.这个博物馆通常在八点关闭。
本句中的“is closed”强调的是关门的被动语态结构。
(4) The museum is now closed.这个博物馆现在不开放。
本句中的“is closed”表达的意思是主语博物馆的状态是不开放的。
2.被动结构中动作执行者(即主语)通常由介词by引导(by有时会省略);而be+动词过去分词作表语结构时,其后往往接“in”,“with”,“at” ,“of”等介词构成一些短语,由此类介词引导的介词短语对主语的特征及其状态进行补充说明,尤其是说明人称主语的情绪或状态的较为多见,小结如下:
(1)在“be+动词过去分词”作表语时,连接介词为with,如在annoyed,contented,covered ,delighted ,exhausted ,pleased ,satisfied等词之后时,例句如下:
1)The battlefield was covered with the dead,the wounded and the dying after the war.战争过后,战场上遍布着死去的,受伤的和奄奄一息的人。
2)We are satisfied with the smoothness of the negotiation.我们对谈判的顺利进行很满意。
(2)在“be+动词过去分词”作表语时,连接介词为at,如在amazed,astonished,disappointed,excited,等词之后时,例句如下:
1)They were surprised at what the boy had did.他们对小男孩的行为感到惊奇。
2)The woman was delighted at the recovery of her stolen jewels.这位女士对珠宝的失而复得感到很高兴。
(3)在“be+动词过去分词”作表语时,连接介词为in,如在intended ,interested ,enriched ,engaged等词之后时,例句如下:
1) He is absorbed in technical innovations all day.他整日一心一意进行技术革新。
2) I suspect that he is more or less involved in the affair.我猜他跟这件事或多或少有点牵连。
(4)在“be+动词过去分词”作表语时,连接介词为of,如在tired ,beloved ,made ,tired,scared等词之后时,例句如下:
1) You will be convinced of your innocence as long as you can prove it.只要你能证明,别人就会相信你是清白的。
2)The force would be composed of troops from NATO countries.这支军队将由来自北约国家的部队组成。
综上,根据比较分析可以看出,“be+动词过去分词”有时是一种被动语态结构的表达,有时可以看作是be+表语+介词的一种结构,即构成主语+系动词+表语的句型。前者在被动语态中,动词的过去分词形式是一种主语及宾语间的被动关系的表达;而后者中,动词的过去分词形式作为动词的成分已弱化,而更多的呈现出形容词的特征,作表语成分,去表达主语的特征或所处的状态。如be made of,be tired of,be known to,be accused of,be satisfied with等,这种用法我们可称之为习惯固定搭配,或变成固定短语使用。
