Period 5 Word study & Grammar

語法系列復習專題-----動詞時態，被動語態

一、一般現在時

在以here,there開頭的句子里，go,come等少數動詞的一般在時表示正在發生的動作。例如：There goes the bell.鈴響了。There comes the bus.汽車來了。Here she comes.她來了。

二、現在進行時

1.代替一般現在時，描繪更加生動。例如：The Changjiang River is flowing into the east.江水滾滾向東流。The sun is rising in the east.太陽從東方冉冉升起。

2.大多數動詞可用于進行時，但也有些動詞不用于進行時。常見的有：exist,live,understand,mean,owe,belong to ,know,doubt,suppose,remember,forget,

believe,trust,want,wish,refuse,like,hate,dislike,prefer,mind,hope等。

注意點：1、現在完成時與一般過去時的區別：

2、短暫動詞（即瞬間動詞），join,lose,buy,borrow,leave,go,come,arrive,

die,marry, finish,complete,begin,start,break out等，在完成時態中，其肯定式不能和表示一段時間的狀語連用。例如不能說：He has finished the work for three hours.要翻譯“他已完成工作三小時了。”可采用1）“ago法”：He finished the work three hours ago.2）“延續法”：He has been through(with)the work for three hours.3）“since法”：It is/has been three hours since he finished the work.

四、現在完成進行時

1.用來表示從過去某一時刻開始一直持續到現在（或今后還要繼續一去）的動作。例如：He has been doing the maths problems since 8:00./ It has been raining for two days.

2.凡是不能用于現在進行時的動詞均不能用于現成完成進行時。

五、一般過去時

六、過去進行時

1.表示過去某一時刻或某一段時間內正在進行的動作（這一過去時間須用時間狀語表示）。例如：He was preparing his lecture all day yesterday.

2.表示動作在另一過去動作發生時進行。例如：They were still working when I left.

3.用在兩個過去進行時動作同時發生。例如：I was writing while he was watching TV.

4.表示過去將來動作。例如：He said she was arriving the next day.

七、過去完成時

1.表示在過去某一時間以前已經完成的動作。例如：He had shut the door before the dog came up./ Everything had been all right up till this morning.

2.表示動作或狀態從過去某個時刻開始一直延續到另一個過去時刻才完成，甚至還要繼續下去。例如：At the age of ten,he had learned 500 English words.He had been ill for a week when we learned about it.

3.常用hope,expect,think,intend,want,suppose等動詞的過去完成時來表示未實現的希望、打算或意圖。例如：We had expected that you would be able to win the match.

八、一般將來時

一般將來時表示將來要發生的動作和存在的狀況。有下列一些形式：

2.be going to do (主觀上打算或客觀上可能發生)

3.be doing (按計劃將要發生，常和表示最近的將來時間連用)

4.be about to do (按計劃即將發生)

時態考點分析

1．--Can I join your club,dad?

--You can when you______a bit older. (NMET)

A.get B.will get C.are getting D.will have got

析：“You can”是將來意，when引導的時間狀語從句要用一般現在時表將來所以此題答案為A.

2．--Oh,it’s you!I______you.

--I’ve just had my hair cut and I’m wearing new glasses.

A.didn’t recognize B.hadn’t recognized C.haven’t recognized D.don’t recongnize

析：從“Oh,it’s you!”可知說話時已認出對方。“沒有認出”是在此之前為過去情況，所以應選A.

3.I don’t think Jim saw me;he______into space. (NMET)

A.just stared B.was just staring C.has just stared D.had just stared

析：在空白處應選一個與“saw”相配，能解釋Jim didn’t see me 這一原因的選項，只有著眼于A、B。若選A不能體觀他“當時正在做”某事，故排除A而選B。這樣因為“他正在望宇宙天空”所以“未看到我”。

4.--______my glasses?

--Yes,I saw them on your bed a minute ago. (NMET)

A.Do you see B.Had you seen C.Would you see D.Have you seen

析：現在完成時可表過去發生的事情對現在產生的影響或結果，問話人以這樣的時態發問可作現焦急的心情。故答案為D。

5.You don’t need to describe her.I______her several times. (NMET)

A.had met B.have met C.met D.meet

析：答案B。道理同4。

6.--Do you know our town at all?

--No,this is the first time I______here.

A.was B.have been C.came D.am going

析：根據this/it is the first/second/…time sb.has done sth.句型，可定答案為B。又如：This is the second time he has visited the Great Wall.

7.I don’t really work here.I______until the new secretary arrives. (NMET)

A.just help out B.have just helped out

C.am just helping out D.will just help out

析：根據I don’t really work here.以及…until the new secretary arrives,可知說話人所要做的事是計劃安排行為，C、D兩個選項都表將來動作，但D非計劃安排，C則體現按計劃去做，所以此題答案為C。

8.--Is this raincoat yours?

--No,mine______there behind the door. (NMET)

A.is hanging B.has hung C.hangs D.hung

析：此題的“懸掛”是指現狀而言，故表過去“掛”的B、D項可排除。C項雖指“現在掛”，但側重在常規，習慣。為了突出“你所指的那件雨衣不是我的，我的正掛在門后”這一意思，選A是極為合情理的。

被動語態

一、被動語態的句型

1.常見句式是：主語（受動者）＋be＋過去分詞＋（by＋施動者）

例如：He was scolded by the English teacher.

2.主語＋get＋過去分詞＋其它成分

例如：The boy got drowned last summer./ She got fired because of her faults.

注意：使用這種結構不能帶有“by＋施動者”

3.帶有雙賓語（直接賓語和間接賓語）的主動句變為動句，其主語可以是直接賓語，也可以是間接賓語。例如：She lent me a bike.被動：1）I was lent a bike(by her).

2）A bike was lent to me(by her).

4.情態動詞＋be＋過去分詞

例如：This problem must be worked out in half an hour.

5.雙重被動式：主語＋被動式謂語＋不定式的被動式＋其它成分

例如；These magazines are not allowed to be taken out of the reading-room./The murderer was ordered to be shot.

二、主動表示被動的幾種情況

1.不及物動詞與狀語連用，用以表示主語的品質和狀態。常見動詞是：cut,sell,read,write,fill,cook,lock,wash,drive,keep等。例如：This knife cuts well.這把刀好切。These books sell well.這些書好賣。The pen writes smoothly.這支筆寫起來流暢。Meat wont keep long in such hot weather.肉在這樣熱的天氣里放不長久。The cloth washes well.這種布好洗。

2.一些連系動詞的主動式＋形容詞。常見動look,smell,taste,sound,feel,prove,turn out等。例如：The apples taste good./The flower smells wonderful./The news proved/turned out true./Cotton feels soft.注：prove也可用于被動式，如：His answer(was) proved right.

3.不定式在某些形容詞之后，且與主語有動賓關系。常見形容詞有：hard,defficult,easy,heavy,fit,good,comfortable,convenient,impossible等。例如：The problem is easy to do./The question is difficult to answer./The box is heavy to carry./The project is impossible to complete in a year.比較：The problem is to be done./The question is to be answered.沒有形容詞時，雖然不定式與主語是動賓關系，但必須用被動式。

三、容易誤用被動語態的幾種情況：

1.I teach myself French.不可變為Myself is taught French.因為反身代詞不可作主語。

2.We help each other/one another.不可變為Each other/One another is helped by us.因為相互代詞不可作主語。

3.He lost heart.不可變為Heart was lost by him.因為象lose heart,make a face,keep silence,lose in thought這類動賓結構的固定短語只能用于主動式，不能用被動式。

4.She took part in the sports meet.不能變為The sports meet was taken part in by her.因為象take part in,belong to ,own,have,hate,fail,contain等表狀態動詞沒有被動語態。

被動語態考點分析

1.I need one more stamp before my collection______. (NMET)

A.has completed B.completes C.has been completed D.is completed

析：complete是及物動詞，“郵集”是被人完成的，須從表被動意的C、D中選擇。又因before等引導的時間狀語從句中謂語要用一般現在時表將來，所以此題答案為D。

2.--Do you like the material?

--Yes,it______very soft. (NMET)

A.is feeling B.felt C.feels D.is felt

析：觀察題干，空白線后無賓語，可知feel是不及物動詞，表“（某物）摸起來…”意思,是連系動詞，不能用于被動式，也不用進行時。根據此題對話情景，是指某種材料的常規特性，要用一般現在時，不能用過去時，故答案為C。feel作“感覺”、“認為”、“摸”等意時是及物動詞，可帶賓語，有時態，語態等變化。

3．Great changes______in the city,and a lot of factories______. (NMET)

A.have been taken place…have been set up

B.have taken place…have been set up

C.have taken place…have set up

D.were taken place…were set up

析：take place（發生）是不及物動詞，不可用于被動語態，于是可排除A、D，又因set up(建造)是及物動詞，在此題中應該用被動式，故排除C，答案為B。

4.Most of the artists______to the party were from South Africa. (NMET)

A.invited B.to invite C.being invited D.had been invited

析：首先可排除B。因為它不表示“被邀請”。又因D項少引導詞who，也應排除。A項＝who were invited,C項＝who were being invited,由象invite這類短暫動詞的現在分詞被動式不可作后置定語，故也應排除。因而可定答案為A。

5.I dont know the restaurant,but its______to be quite a good one.(NMET)

A.said B.told C.spoken D.talked

析：根據“某人/某物據說…”英文句式為“sb/sth.is said…”可定答案為A。又如：He is said to be a clever boy.據說他是一個聰明的男孩。

6.The police found that the house______and a lot of things______.(NMET)

A.has broken into…has been stolen B.has broken into…had been stolen

C.has been broken into…stolen D.had been broken into…stolen

析：“房屋被人闖入”，“東西被偷”都是被動語態，故可排除A、B。因C項中的has been broken into不能置于found之后，則答案只能是D。

7.I promise that the matter will______. (NMET)

A.be taden care B.be taken care of C.take care D.take care of

析：take care of…是固定短語，若無of則不可帶賓語，只能跟that從句。所以此題答案為B。

8.If city noises______from increasing,people____shout to be heard even at the dinner table 20 years from now. (NMET)

A.are not kept…will have to B.are not kept…have to

C.do not keep…will have to D.do not keep…have to

析：觀察題干，第一處必須用被動式，答案只能在A、B中選一。條件句用一般現在時，主句應為一般將來時，故答案為A。

9.The Olympic Games,____in 776 BC,did not include women players until 1912.(NMET)

A.first playing B.to be first played C.first played D.to be first playing

析；要表達“被舉行”，只能在B、C中選。B意“將要首次舉行”。顯然不合in 776 BC這一過去時間，只有C，first played(＝which was first played)才合用。故答案為C。

10.This sentence needs______.

A.a improvement B.improve C.improving D.improved

析：初看此題似手A、C皆可，但improvement是元音開頭詞，其前要用an,故排除。need作實義動詞，和require,want一樣，后面可跟doing或to be done 表“需要被…”意。如：The door needs/wants/requires painting/to be painted.(這扇門需要漆一下。)

11.I should very much like to have gone to the party,but I______invited.

A.am not B.havent been C.was not D.will not be

析：should/would like to have done sth.意“本想做某事”，例如：I should like to have seen the film,but it wasnt possible.由于這種句式表示“過去想”，所以but后的句子也應該是過去時態與之相配合，故此題答案是C。

12.--______the note______to Mr Smith?

--No,It is still in my pocket.

A.Is…being given B.Was…given C.Has…been given D.Hasnt…been given

析：根據問句與答句，問話人顯然是注重結果，故要用現在完成時。似乎D作為反詰句“難道條還沒給史密斯先生嗎？”也成立，但若是這種口氣發問，答話人就應答“Sorry.It is still in my pocket.”,所以此題答案應為C。

13.We heard it______that he had gone to New York.

A.say B.said C.to say D.be said

析：It was said that…可以改為We heard it said that…(都表示“據說…”之意)。前一種說法中It 是形式主語，后一種說法中it是形式賓語。故此題答案為B。
