今天，我看书的时候，看到了下面这句很普通的句子，“How Do We Get Started on These

Programs?”。我突然感到有一点糊涂，什么叫“Get started” ？这句话同“How do we start on these programs?”又有什么区别呢？

我查了词典里关于“get+动词分词”结构的解释，发现这种常见结构其实很复杂，既可以表示主动（We Get Started on These Programs），又可以表示被动（I got invited to her party yesterday）。

下面就是我整理的笔记。

首先，“get+过去分词”是一种被动形式。

我们都知道，英语中表示被动的方法是“be+过去动词”，但是其实还有第二种方法，那就是“get+过去分词”，这两者的意思基本上是类似的。但是，后者用得比较少，尤其少用于正式的书面文体。

请对比下面三句话：

a) The bus hit John.

b) John was hit by the bus.

c) John got hit by the bus.

上面这三种说法都是对的。被动的含义除了可以用“be + 过去分词”表示以外，还可以用“got + 过去分词”来表示。

请看下面的例句：

* It is upsetting when a person gets punished for a crime that he didn't commit. * The picture got damaged (= was damaged) when we were moving.

* If they make such criticisms they will get treated with the contempt they deserve. * I don't want to get mixed up with the police again.

* After working here selflessly for several years,Mr. Li got promoted at last.

* They got delayed because of the holiday traffic.

“get+过去分词”和"be+过去分词"有几个区别。

（1）在"be+过去分词"的结构中，be是助动词（auxiliary），可以用来独立构成否定句和疑问句；get不是助动词，在否定句和疑问句，必须增加助动词。

请看下面的例句。

* Was Kim attacked by a tiger?

* Kim was not attacked by a tiger.

* Did Kim get attacked by a tiger?

* Kim did not get attacked by a tiger.

以上四句话都是正确，下面两句则是错误的。

* Got Kim attacked by a tiger? (×)

* Kim got not attacked by a tiger. (×)

（2）“get+过去分词”结构可以用于进行时态，"be+过去分词"结构就不行。

请看下面的例句

* You will be getting cursed.

* My brother has been getting examined

（3）“get+过去分词”结构通常不带“by+动作主体”的部分，但这不是绝对的。 请看下面两句话，其中第二句话是错误的。

* I got caught in the rain.

* I got caught by the rain. （×）

但是，在下面的例句中可以使用by：

* He got caught by the police.

* He got hit on the head by the burglar.

* Raghu got kicked in the shin by a donkey.

* He got punched in the nose by his opponent.

（4）“get+过去分词”结构极少用于无生命的物体。

请看下面两句话，其中第二句话是错误的。

* Gunfire was heard in the auditorium.

* Gunfire got heard in the auditorium.(×)

除了表示被动以外，“get + 过去分词”结构还可用于谈论为自己做的事，表示主动的行为而不是被动的行为，即起到了强调主语、加重语气的作用。

请对比下面两句话：

a) Joe was dressed [by someone]

b) Joe got dressed.

a句表示其他人帮助Joe穿衣服，b句则表示Joe自己穿衣服。

除了get dressed（穿衣服）以外，类似的常用短语，还有以下这些：get divorced（离婚）、get engaged（订婚）、get confused（迷惑不解）、get lost（迷路）、get washed（洗脸） 、get married（结婚）等。

为什么英语中有两种表示被动的结构？为什么“get+过去分词”结构既可以表示主动的行为，又可以表示被动的行为，它们之间是否有联系？

在普通的“be+过去分词”结构中，动作主体（subject）与动作受体（object

）之间的关系一般是同等重要的。下面两个例句是完全等价的：

* Marconi invented the radio.

* The radio was invented by Marconi.

但是，“get+过去分词”结构不是这样。不管加不加动作主体，关注的重点永远是在动作的受体上。这也是，这种结构为什么通常不带“by+动作主体”的原因。（即使带了，句子的重心也依然是在前半部分。）

所以，只要使用了“get+过去分词”结构，一定是强调句子的主语的。

我不清楚get used to是不是这种结构。资料中都没有提到这个短语，所以可能不是。 学习了这么久，又是这么麻烦的东西，太伤脑筋了。

下面是轻松一刻，贴几张漫画。

He got hit!

I got caught.

I got lost.

We got married.

Mike got dressed for bed.

[练习]

（1） I don't know how it happened, but I ____ in San Francisco.

a) was lost b) got lost

（2） That evening the Greek embassy was having a party. I ____ by a friend who worked there.

a) was invited b) got invited

（3） I had been out all day sightseeing. When I returned it was late, so I ____ quickly and left the hotel.

a) got disoriented b) was disoriented

（7） I took a wrong turn and walked the wrong direction. Finally, I hailed a taxi and ____ to the party.

a) was driven b) got driven

答案：（按下右键，拖动鼠标察看）

（1）b （2）a （3）b （4）a （5）a/b 两者都正确 （6）a （7）a

第二篇：被动语态的用法及练习

被动语态的用法及练习

（一） 语态的基本概念和种类

语态是动词的一种形式，用来表明主语与谓语动词之间的关系。所以英语的语态是通过动词形式的变化表现出来的。语态有两种：主动语态和被动语态。主语是动作的发出者为主动语态；主语是动作的接受者为被动语态。 如：They built the bridge.

The bridge was built by them. (二)被动语态的构成

被动语态由“助动词be＋及物动词的过去分词+by+施动者”构成。人称、数和时态的变化是通过be的变化表现出来的。

1. 一般现在时的被动语态. am / is / are + 动词的过去分词 Our classroom is cleaned every day. This car is made in China.

2、一般过去式的被动语态: was / were + 动词的过去分词 His desk was cleaned just now. The station was built in 1928.

3、现在进行时的被动语态: am / is / are + being + 动词的过去分词 A new factory is being built in our city now. Some trees are being cut down in the park.

4、过去进行时的被动语态: was / were + being + 动词的过去分词 A new factory was being built in our city at that time.

Some babies were being looked after by Miss Chen last year. 5、一般将来时的被动语态:

(A) will / shall + be + 动词的过去分词

(B) am / is / are + going to be +动词的过去分词. Some new factories will be built in our city this year. Your watch is going to be mended in an hour.

6、过去将来时的被动语态: (1).would / should + be + 动词的过去分词 (2).was / were +going to be + 动词的过去分词.

She said that some new factories would be built soon in our city. He thought that your watch was going to be mended after an hour. 7、现在完成时的被动语态:have / has + been + 动词的过去分词

Some new factories have been built in the city since last year. Your watch has been mended already.

8、过去完成时的被动语态:had + been + 动词的过去分词 He said that some new factories had been built in the city. I didn’t know that my watch had been mended .

9、含情态动词的被动式：can/may/must + be + done 例如：He can not be found. / I must be paid for this. 歌诀是：被动语态be字变，过去分词跟后面。

情态动词的被动语态是常考的一个知识点：情态动词+be+过去分词 (三)被动语态的用法

1)不知道或没有必要说明动作的执行者是谁。 例如：

Some new computers were stolen last night. 一些新电脑在昨晚被盗了。(不知道电脑是谁偷的)

This book was published in 1981. 这本书出版于19xx年。 (2)强调动作的承受者，而不强调动作的执行者。 例如： the window was broken by Mike. 窗户是迈克打破的。 This book was written by him. 这本书是他写的。

Eight hours per day for sleep must be guaranteed. 每天8小时睡眠必须得到保证。歌诀：谁做的动作不知道，说出谁做的没有必要； 动作承受者需强调，被动语态运用到

（四）主动语态变被动语态的方法与注意事项

歌诀是：宾变主，主变宾，by短语后面跟。 谓语动词变被动，be后“过分”来使用。(1) 通常的办法是：将主动结构中的宾语变为被动结构中的主语，将主动结构中的谓语动词变为“be / get +过去分词”形式，将主动结构中的主语变为介词by的宾语(若动作的执行者没有必要说明则可以省略该by短语)。如：

Li Lei planted the tree last year. → The tree was planted by Li Lei last year. 这棵树是李蕾去年栽的。

Workers made the machines in Changsha. → The machines were made in Changsha. 这些机器是长沙造的。

(2) 将含有复合宾语的句子变为被动语态时，应将宾语变为被动结构的主语，而宾语的补足语则留在原处成为主语补足语。如：

He painted the door green yesterday. →The door was painted green yesterday. 昨天门被漆成绿色了。

注意：表示“使、让”的动词make, have等，以及感官动词see, watch, observe, feel, hear, listen to, look at等，在主动语态中，接不定式做宾语补足语时，不定式前的 to 要省略，而变为被动语态时，成为主语补足语的不定式，则必须带to。如： I saw him go into the teachers’office. →He was seen to go into the teachers’office. 看见他进入了教师办公室。

(3) 带双宾语的句子变为被动语态时，既可将直接宾语变为被动语态的主语，而在间接宾语前加to 或for留在动词之后；也可将间接宾语变为被动结构的主语，而直接宾语留在动词之后。但一般采用后一种用法。如：

He gave me the pen last year. →I was given the pen last year. / The pen was given to me last year. 这支笔是去年给我的。 【说明】一般说来，间接宾语前带to的动词有：bring, give, hand, lend, offer, pass, post, send, show, take, teach, tell, write, throw等；间接宾语前带for的动词有：book, buy, call, cook, do, get, make, save等。

(4) 动词believe, consider, declare, expect, know, report, say, suppose, think等的被动语态，常有两种结构形式。如：

He was said to get hurt in the car accident. 人们说他在车祸中受伤了。 It was said that he got hurt in the car accident. 人们说他在车祸中受伤了。 (5) 短语动词变被动语态时，短语动词后面的介词或副词不能省略。如： She has never been operated on before. 她从未动过手术。

The baby was looked after by her sister. 这婴儿由她的姐姐照顾。 His plan was laughed at by everyone. 他的计划大家都嘲笑。 （6）动词不定式的被动语态：即把to do 变成to be done （五）不用被动语态的情况

1) 不及物动词或动词短语无被动语态：

appear, die, disappear, end , fail, happen, last, lie, remain, sit, spread, stand ,break out, come true, fall asleep, keep silence, lose heart, take place. After the fire, very little remained of my house.

比较： rise, fall, happen是不及物动词；raise, seat是及物动词。 (错) The price has been risen. (对) The price has risen.

(错) The accident was happened last week. (对) The accident happened last week.

(错) The price has raised.

(对) The price has been raised.

(错) Please seat. (对) Please be seated.

要想正确地使用被动语态，就须注意哪些动词是及物的，哪些是不及物的。特别是一词多义的动词往往有两种用法。解决这一问题唯有在学习过程中多留意积累。

2) 不能用于被动语态的及物动词或动词短语：

fit, have, hold, marry, own, wish, cost, notice, watch agree with, arrive at / in, shake hands with, succeed in, suffer from, happen to, take part in, walk into, belong to This key just fits the lock.

Your story agrees with what had already been heard. 3) 系动词无被动语态：

appear, be become, fall, feel, get, grow, keep, look, remain, seem, smell, sound, stay, taste, turn

It sounds good.

4) 带同源宾语的及物动词，反身代词，相互代词，不能用于被动语态： die, death, dream, live, life

She dreamed a bad dream last night.

5) 当宾语是不定式时，很少用于被动语态。 (对) She likes to swim. (错) To swim is liked by her.

习题讲解和练习题

10.They gave him a medal for his wonderful work. 被动语态复习 ABC A．熟记结构

被动语态的结构为“助动词be＋及物动词的过去分词（p．p）”。被动语态的不同时态是通过be的时态变化来表示的，其人称和数方面应与主语保持一致。其具体变化为：

一般现在时：am／is／are＋p．p． 一般过去时：was／were＋p．p．

一般将来时：shall ／will be ＋p．p． 现在完成时：have ／has been ＋p．p． 现在进行时：am／is／are＋being＋p．p． 过去将来时：should ／would be ＋p．p．

含情态动词的被动结构：情态动词＋be＋p．p．例如： ① Chinese ______ by the largest number of people． A．speak

B．is speaking C．speaks D．is spoken

（选D。考查一般现在时的被动语态）

② The boy ______ to get supper ready after school． A．were told B．is telling C．was told D．tells

（选C。考查一般过去时的被动语态）

③ A lot of new roads ______ built in the west of China． A．must B．must be C．has D．have

（选B。考查含情态动词的被动语态） B．明确用法

被动语态常用于以下两种情况：

1．不知道谁是动作的执行者，或者没有必要指出谁是动作的执行者； 2．强调动作的承受者。例如： 这棵树是那个男孩弄断的。

The tree ______ ______ by that boy． （填was broken） C．熟练转换

1．将主动语态变被动语态的基本方法为： ①将主动语态的宾语作被动语态的主语；

②谓语动词变为“be＋及物动词的过去分词”，并通过be的变化来表达出不同的时态；

③主动语态的主语变为介词by的宾语，组成介词短语放在被动结构中的谓语动词之后。（有时by短语可以省略）。

2．被动语态的一般疑问句是将一个助动词置于主语之前；否定句是在第一个助动词后加not；特殊疑问句的语序为：疑问词＋一般疑问句。例如： ① You must throw the broken pottery away at once．

The broken pottery ______ ______ ______ ______ at once．（同义句） （填m ust be thrown away）

② Where did they grow vegetables？（改为被动语态） Where ______ vegetables ______ ？（填were；grown） D．注意特例

将主动语态变被动语态应注意几个特殊情况：

1．含双宾语的主动结构变为被动结构时，有两种方法： ①将间接宾语变为主语，直接宾语保持不变；

②将直接宾语变为主语，间接宾语用介词to或for引导。例如： ① He told us a story．（变被动语态） →We were told a story（by him）．或：A story was told to us by him． ② Her mother gave her a new pen．（变被动语态） A new pen ______ ______ ______ her by her mother．

（填was given to）

2．短语动词的被动语态：在变为被动语态时，要将短语动词视为一个整体，其后的介词或副词不能省去。例如：

① This dictionary mustn't ______ from the library． A．take away B．taken away C．are taken away D．be taken away ［D］

② She will take good care of the children．（变被动语态）

The children will ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ （by her）． （填be taken good care of）

3．含有复合宾语的主动结构变被动结构时，通常将宾语变为被动句的主语，而宾语补足语就成为主语补足语。注意：省略to的不定式作宾补时，不定式符号to必须补上。例如：

Someone saw him swim in Qianling Lake yesterday．（变被动 He ______ ______ ______ swim in Qianling Lake yesterday． （填was seen to）

4．不定式的被动结构：动词不定式的被动语态为“to be ＋过去分词”。例如： The radio says a wild animal zoo is to ______ in our city． A．be building B．build C．be built D．built ［C］

5．以疑问代词开头的疑问句转换成被动句时要注意词序：应将主动句中的疑问代词改为介词by的宾语，但仍然放在句子开头。例如： Who has broken the cup？（改为被动语态） →By whom has the cup been broken？ E．注意区别

被动语态和过去分词作表语的区别：

1）含义不同：被动语态强调动作，重点说明动作由谁完成、怎样完成；而过去分词作表语通常用来描写情景，叙述人或事物的特征及所处的状态。试比较： The window is broken．窗子破了。（系表结构） The window is broken by him．窗子被他打破了。（被动语态）

2）用法不同：过去分词作表语时可以被 so，very，too等程度副词修饰，而被动语态则不能用so，very，too修饰，而需用much，very much，so much，too much修饰。试比较：

He was very interested in science．他对科学有极大兴趣。（系表结构）

I was so much surprised at the scene that I didn't know what to do．我被那种场面搞得大吃一惊，不知所措。（被动语态） F．牢记（相关）句型

初中教材中与被动语态相关的句型有： 1．be covered with被……覆盖

2．be made of由……制作（发生物理变化） be made from由……制作（发生化学变化） be made in由（某地）制造 be made by被（某人）制造 3．be used for被用来……

be used as被当作（作为）……来使用 be used to do sth．被用来做某事 4．It is said that．．．据说…… It is hoped that．．．希望…… It is well known that．．．众所周知……例如： ①—Your coat looks nice．Is it ______ cotton？ —Yes．It's Shanghai． A．made of；made by B．made of；made in C．made for；made by D．made for；made in ［B］

② This machine is used ______ the room wet． A．for keeping B．as keeping C．keep

D．to keeping

［A］

③ 据说在南京长江上又在建一座桥。

______ ______ ______ that ______ ______ is being ______ over the Changjiang River in Nanjing．

（填It is said；another bridge；built） 练习题
