1、没有被动语态的及物动词众所周知,英语的被动语态是由 be及物动词的过去分词构成。有人认为似乎所有的及物动词都可转换成相应的被动语。其实不然,至少在某种意义上,有些及物动词不能用于被动语态。一、当句子的谓语是表示“拥有”、“容纳”、“缺少”概念的及物动词时。例如:1The millionaire possesses great wealth这位百万富翁拥有大量的财富。不能说:Great wealth is possessed by the millionaire 2The newly-constructed reservoir holds a lot of water 新水库蓄水量很大。不能说:

3、rt becomes Mary very well这条蓝裙子玛丽穿上去很合适。不能说:Mary is become very well by the blue skirt 2Will the date suit you 这个日子对你合适吗不能说:Will you be suited by the date 3We should fit our deeds to our words我们应该言行一致。不能说:Our deeds should be fitted to our words by us三、当句子的谓语是表示“相互作用”的及物动词,如:equal,mean,resemble 等时。1No

5、appearance 四、当句子的谓语是表示“明白”意义的及物动词,如:get,catch,take 时,也没有相应的被动语态。1The boy said,“I didnt catch the last two words”这个男孩说:“我没听清楚最后两个词。”不能说:The boy said,“The last two words werent caught by me”2I dont take you at all你说的我一点也不懂。不能说:You arent taken by me at all五、动词 have 作“有、接受、度过、吃、经历”解时,没有被动语态。1I have five

7、半吃早饭。不能说:Breakfast is usually had by me at half past six 六、当及物动词 last 表示“持续”、“经久”的含义时,也没有相应的被动语态。This coat has lasted me five years这件外衣我已穿了五年。不能说:I have been lasted five years by this coat 七、及物动词 cost 表示“价值”、“花费”意义时,没有被动语态。That project cost them too much in man-power,material and money那项工程耗费了他们大量的人力、物力和财力。不能说:They were cost too much in manpower,material and money by the project八、及物动词“befall”表示“临到头上”,“发生于”之意时,没有被动语态。A succession of misfortunes befell the poor little girl 这个可怜的女孩遭受了种种不幸。不能说:The poor little girl was befallen by a succession of misfortunes 综上所述,并非所有的及物动词都可用于被动语态。所以我们要仔细辨析,以免用错。
