Grammar 被动语态 (2) 一、定义 主语为动作的执行者时，表示主动语态。 主语为动作的承受者时，表示被动语态。 e.g. He told the story. (主动语态） The was told by him. (被动语态）

二、一般过去时的被动语态 我们知道，被动语态的动词形式为：be+动词的过去分词，其中be为助动词，根据不同的人称和时态有形式的变化。因此，一般过去时的被动语态为： 1. 肯定句： 主语+was/were+动词过去分词（ + by+动作执行者） e.g. The letter was written by Jim.

2. 否定句： 主语+was/were not+动词过去分词（ + by+动作执行者） e.g. The letter wasn’t written by Jim.

3.一般疑问句： Was/Were+主语+动词过去分词+（by+动作执行者） e.g. Was the letter written by Jim?

4. 特殊疑问句： 特殊疑问词+was/were+主语+动词的过去分词+（by+动作执行者） e.g. When was the letter written by Jim?

动词不定式作宾语补足语 当动词不定式作宾语补足语时，要把主动语态中表人的直接宾语变为被动语态的主语，宾语补足语的位置不变。 e.g. The school encouraged Liu Xiang to train for the high jump. Liu Xiang was encouraged to train for the high jump.

但是当to在宾语补足语里被省略时，在变被动语态时要在宾语补足语里加上to。 e.g. The boss made him complete the work one day. He was made to complete the work one day (by the boss).

The Paralympic Games (残奥会) Around the world The Paralympic Games (残奥会) In 1948, Sir Ludwig Guttmann, a doctor at a hospital in England, began using sport as part of his patients’ treatment. He set up a competition with other hospitals at the same time as the London Olympics in that year. Over the next ten years, the competition grew bigger and bigger, with more hospitals in England taking part.

In 1960, at the Rome Olympics, Guttmann brought many athletes to complete. The modern Paralympic Games (or Paralympics) were born. More and more people take part in the Paralympics, and at the 2008 Paralympics in China, more than 140 countries took part.

Great players, excellent records, crowded stadiums and enormous media coverage across the world made this the best Paralympics ever.

路德维格•戈特曼：残奥会之父

当我们欣赏身体健康的运动员在奥运赛场上矫健优美的身姿时，是否会想起那些由于疾病和事故留下身心缺憾的人，他们是否也渴望享受运动的快乐，展示自己的风采？路德维格·戈特曼想到了，并且身体力行，在1948年伦敦夏季奥运会期间，为残疾人士倡议举办了“国际轮椅运动会”。这项赛事最终发展为今天的残奥会。如今，当我们为残奥会赛场上运动员们的坚强乐观所感动时，也不要忘了路德维格·戈特曼医生，以及他的爱心和努力。他是真正的残奥会之父。
