再比如:
a. Clint broke the window last night.
b. The window was broken last night.
這窗戶玻璃是昨天晚上打碎的。(強調(diào)動作)
c. Now the window is broken.
現(xiàn)在窗戶玻璃碎了。(靜態(tài)被動)
常見的這種表示靜態(tài)被動的詞還有:
interested excited satisfied
married disappointed scared
frightened worried lost
這種表示狀態(tài)的被動語態(tài)后面一般不接介詞by,而是用其他介詞。如:
a. I am interested in grammar.
b. I am satisfied with Clint’s grammar course.
c.She is married to her teacher.
d.The table is made of wood.
e. Are you scared of snakes?
