Well,  

嗯，英语中

the active voice and passive voice in  English all comes down to the ‘subject’  

的主动语态和被动语态都可以归结为 句子

and the ‘object’ of a sentence. The ‘subject’  is the person or thing doing something.  

的“主语” 和“宾语”。 “主体”是指某人或某事正在做某事。

The ‘object’ is having something done to it. For  example, in the sentence ‘Anna walked the dog’,  

“对象”正在做一些事情。例如，在句子“安娜a狗”中，

Anna is the subject because she is doing  the action and the dog is the object because  

安娜是主体，因为她正在做动作，而狗是对象，因为

it is having that action done to it. In the sentence ‘I will do my homework’,  

它正在对它执行动作。在句子“我将做我的功课”中，

the subject is ‘I’ because I am doing the  action and the object is ‘my homework’.  

主题是“我”，因为我正在做动作，而对象是“我的功课”。

In the sentence ‘The loud noise shocked William’,  the loud noise is the subject, because it is doing  

在“喧闹的声音震惊了威廉”一句中，喧闹的声音是主体，因为它在做

the action, in this case it is doing the shocking.  The object is William because he is being shocked. 

动作，在这种情况下，它在做震撼。对象是威廉，因为他很震惊。

A sentence using the active voice can start with  the subject, followed by the verb, followed by the  

使用主动语态的句子可以以主语开头，然后是动词，然后是

object, followed by the rest of the sentence.  For example: ‘Darren lost the book at school’.  

宾语，然后是句子的其余部分。例如：“达伦在学校丢了本书”。

The subject is ‘Darren’, the verb is ‘lost’  or ‘to lose’ and the object is ‘the book’. 

主语是“达伦”，动词是“迷失”或“迷失”，宾语是“书”。

A sentence using the passive voice is constructed  differently. This time, we start with the object,  

使用被动语态的句子的结构有所不同。这次，我们从宾语开始，

followed by the verb, followed by the subject.  For example: ‘The book was lost by Darren at  

然后是动词，然后是主语。例如：“这本书是达伦在 学校 丢的

school’. Again, the subject is ‘Darren’, the  verb is ‘lost’ and the object is ‘the book’.

”。同样，主语是“ Darren”，动词是“ lost”，宾语是“ book”。

So now we know the difference  between the active voice  

因此，现在我们知道了主动语音

and the passive voice. But why do we use them? When constructing basic sentences in English, it  

和被动语音 之间的区别 。但是为什么我们要使用它们呢？用英语构建基本句子时，

is best to stick to the active voice to make sure  that your sentences are clear and direct. However,  

最好坚持使用主动语态，以确保您的句子清晰明了。但是，

beyond that, English speakers will often choose  to use the active voice because it emphasises  

除此之外，讲英语的人通常会选择使用主动语态，因为它强调

the person or thing who performs an action. For  example: “Isaac achieved an A in his first exam!”  

执行动作的人或物。例如：“艾萨克（Isaac）在他的第一次考试中获得了A！”

The active voice is the appropriate choice for  this sentence because it emphasises the person,  

主动语态是这句话合适的选择，因为它强调的是人，

Isaac, who did the action. If we said the same  sentence in the passive voice, it would be: “An  

以撒，谁做的动作。如果我们用被动语态说同样的句子，那就是：“

A was achieved by Isaac in his first exam”. It’s  wordy and it’s not as clear or easy to understand.

Asaac在他的第一次考试中获得了A”。它是罗word的，并且不是那么清晰或容易理解。

However, there are circumstances when the passive  voice is more appropriate. For example, when you  

但是，在某些情况下，被动语态更合适。例如，当您

want to put the emphasis on the recipient of the  action, or on the action itself. For example:  

要强调动作的接收者或动作本身时。例如：

“The dress was handmade by Megan”. This is a  common pattern in passive voice sentences in the  

“这件衣服是梅根（Megan）手工制作的”。这是 过去式

past tense: Object, was, the verb, by, subject.  ‘The dress’ is the object, ‘handmade’ is the  

中被动语态句子中的一种常见模式 ：宾语，原语，动词，主语。 “衣服”是对象，“手工”是

action and ‘Megan’ is the subject. This puts the  dress itself and the action of making it by hand  

动作，“梅根”是主题。这会将衣服本身以及手工制作衣服的动作

at the beginning of the sentence, telling the  listener that that is the most important part. 

放在句子的开头，告诉听者这是最重要的部分。

Another time you might need to use the passive  voice is if you don’t want to include the subject,  

另外一次您可能需要使用被动语态是，如果您不想包括主题，

or if you don’t know who the subject is. For  example: “The bag was stolen on Sunday night”.  

或者您不知道主题是谁。例如：“袋子在周日晚上被盗了”。

Notice how in this sentence,  ‘the bag’ is the object as it has  

请注意，在这句话中，“袋子”是如何对其

had the action done to it. It has been stolen.  

执行操作 的对象 。它被偷了。

But there is no subject in this sentence because  who did the action is unknown or not relevant.

但是这句话没有主题，因为谁是谁的行动是未知的或无关紧要的。

So remember: if the subject is at the beginning  of the sentence, followed by the verb,  

因此请记住：如果主语位于句子的开头，接着是动词，

followed by the object, the sentence is using  the active voice. However, if the sentence  

接着是宾语，则该句子使用的是主动语态。但是，如果句子

begins with the object, followed by the verb,  followed by the subject, or if the sentence has  

以宾语开头，然后是动词，再是主语，或者如果句子

no subject, then it is in the passive voice. Now it’s time for a quiz. I’m going to read  

没有主语，则 该句子 处于被动语态。现在是时候进行测验了。我将朗读

out 3 sentences in the active voice and down in  the comments, I would like you to write those  

主动语态的3个句子，并在注释中 朗读 ，我希望您

3 sentences using the passive voice. Then, I’m  going to give you 3 more sentences in the passive voice  

使用被动语态 写这 3个句子。然后，我将再给您3个被动语态的句子

and I would like you to write them using the active voice.  

，我希望您使用主动语态来写它们。

I want you to pause the video in-between all the sentences to allow you the time to write your answer.

我希望您暂停所有句子之间的视频，以便您有时间写答案。

There are a few different tenses that I'm gonna use so pay close attention to

我将使用几种不同的时态，因此请密切注意

the tense that I am saying so that you make sure that you use the same when you change from

我说的时态，以确保在从 主动语态和被动语态

active voice and the passive voice, and vice versa. Are you ready? Here we go. First three sentences.

转换时都使用相同的时态 ，反之亦然。你准备好了吗？开始了。前三个句子。

Hopefully that wasn't too difficult. But how many  did you get right? Let me know. I can’t wait to  

希望那不是太难。但是你说对了几句呢？让我知道。我等不及要
