英语被动语态

第四题

look, sound, smell, taste, feel等连系动词的用法与易错点

用作连系动词,表示感觉,其意思为:look(看起来),sound(听起来),smell(闻起来),taste(尝起来),feel(摸起来)等,它们在用法上有以下特点:

1. 作为连系动词,其后的表语可以是形容词,但是通常不能是副词。如:

这饭菜闻起来真香。

误:The dinner smells well.

正:The dinner smells good.

他说的听起来好像是真的。

误:What he says sounds truly.

正:What he says sounds true.

2. 表示感觉,通常以被感觉的东西作主语,此时它们虽有被动词意味,但不能用被动态。如:

这学校看起来很美。

误:The school is looked very beautiful.

正:The school looks very beautiful.

这汤尝起来很鲜。

误:The soup is tasted nice.

正:The soup tastes nice.

第五题

Great changes have taken place in our hometown in the past ten years.

变化发生而不是变化被发生,不用被动语态。
