Verb Voice
動詞的語態(tài)
Verbs in English have voice, which refers to the relationship between the subject of the sentence and the verb.
動詞在英語中有語態(tài)，指的是句中主語和動詞的關(guān)系。
Examples of Verb Voice:
動詞語態(tài)的例子：
There are two verb voices in English:
英語中動詞的語態(tài)有兩種：
Active Voice-when the subject of the sentence the person or thing doing the action of the verb or in the state expressed by the verb. This is the voice with which we are most familiar-the subject performs the action of the sentence.
主動態(tài)-句中的主語的人或物做出動作或是處于動詞所表述的狀態(tài)，這就是我們最熟悉的主動態(tài)-句中主語是動作的執(zhí)行者。
Passive Voice-when the subject of the sentence is being acted upon. The subject of the sentence is not performing the action. Instead, it is receiving the action.
被動態(tài)-句中的主語是動作的承受者。主語不執(zhí)行動作，而是接受動作。
Most writers do not use passive voice. Passive voice should only be used when you need to emphasize the thing that is being acted upon.
很多人不使用被動態(tài)。只有需要強調(diào)接受動作的事物時，才使用被動態(tài)。
To write a sentence in the passive voice, you must use an auxiliary verb, or "helping" verb.
用被動態(tài)寫句子，必須使用助動詞。
