陷阱3  將連系動詞誤用于被動語態(tài)

英語中有些連系動詞（如look, sound, smell, feel, taste等），雖然它們從漢語看來需要用被動語態(tài)，但它們總是用主動表式表示被動意義，因為連系動詞為不及物動詞，它們沒有被動語態(tài)形式。如：

那只狗看起來很危險。

誤：That dog is looked dangerous.

正：That dog looks dangerous.

你的想法聽起來很好。

誤：Your idea is sounded a good one.

正：Your idea sounds a good one.

陷阱4  根據(jù)漢語意思誤用被動語態(tài)

因為不及物動詞沒有賓語，所以若將其用于被動語態(tài)則沒有主語，故不能用于被動語態(tài)。但是值得注意的是，有些英語中的不及物動詞，譯成漢語時卻可能是“及物”的，很容易出錯，這類動詞如：take place(發(fā)生)，happen(發(fā)生)，come about(發(fā)生)，break out(爆發(fā))，appear(出現(xiàn))，disappear(消失)，last(持續(xù))等。如

在最近10年我的家鄉(xiāng)發(fā)生了巨大的變化。

誤：Great changes have been taken place in my home town in the past ten years.

正：Great changes have taken place in my home town in the past ten years.

類似地，動詞happen也有類似用法。如：

事故什么時候發(fā)生的?

誤：When was the accident happened?

正：When did the accident happen?(www.hz123456.com)
