九、例题解析
- C错。被动语态的构成为"be+ED分词",故C应改为"(a) country is said",由于是一般现在时,故be相应地变为is。
- B为正确答案。空档处缺的是ED分词。
- C错。 应改为was established。 这时表示过去(in 1874)的被动语态。
- B为正确答案。(理由同上)
- D为正确答案。
- C为正确答案。当"prepare"做"使有准备,为...做准备"讲时,一般用被动语态,如:Be prepared against war, be prepared against natural disaster, and do everthing for the people. 备战备荒为人民。 be well prepared for sth. 对做某事有充分准备。 prepare sb. to hear the news 使某人对这消息有思想准备。
- B错。改为regarded。be regarded as "被当做",用被动语态,再者,B后有被动语态引导使动者的介词by。
- C错。改为have not been operated。这里who引导的是定语从句修饰"soldiers",同时它也是soldiers的先行词。伤兵是被做手术,所以用被动语态。
- C对。"实验"(experiments)只能被人做,故只能用被动语态,符合此条件的只有C,而D 构成上有误。本句的时间状语为"before 1900",因此从时态上说选C,应当用过去完成时。
- A为正确答案。因为主句谓语动词用了过去式,宾语从句中应该用过去完成时,同时又是被动语态,所以选A。
- C错。改为ED分词"extended",本句为现在进行时的被动语态,故其构成为"am/is/are being+ED分词"。
- B错。本句应用被动语态,因为"社会结构(structure of society)"本身不可能发出"威胁"这个动作, 它只能受到外界的威胁,注意后面"by短语"的提示,故B应改为"is being threatened"(现在进行时被动态) ,也可改为"is threatened"(一般现在时被动态) 。
- D为正确答案。这里指的是"无线电波"能体现出大部分电磁信号频谱,到下世纪初,更多的......。到那一时刻业已能做的事,要用将来完成时,又是被动语态,所以选D。
- A错。改为"used by ",因为"companies(公司) "是使用"letter of credit(信用证) "的行为者,故应用表行为者的介词"by"。
- A错。 改为by。
- D错。 改为performed by。
