10、wear, rite, look, open, shut, translate, read, last, cut等。请看下列几个例题：1) Would you like a piece of this kind of cloth? Itwell. A. is sold 高考资源网B. is selling C. is being sold D. sells2) Take care! Dont get the ink on your shirt ,for iteasily. A. wont wash out B. wont be washed out C. isnt washed out D.

11、isnt washing out3) In warm weather, fruit and meatlong. A. Dont keep B. cant be kept C. are not kept D. are not keeping答案分别是1)D 2)A 3)A值得注意的是：1)这种句子的主语只能是物，而不是人。2)正是这种做主语的物本身具有某一内在的特性，能够使得动词所表示的动作以某种方式得以实现。3)这类句子中常有well, easily, badly, smoothly来做状语。试比较下列两句话：1) The door wont shut. 这门就是关不上。这句话说明“门”本身有

13、这样的天气里，肉保存不了多长时间。2) The door wont open/lock/close.这门打不开/锁不上/关不上。3、有些表示烹调、装订、印刷等意义的词，多用进行表示被动意义。例：1) The meat is cooking. 锅里煮着肉。2) The book is printing. 这本书在印刷中。4、用过去时或现在完成时来表示已经发生的动作，是一种客观的叙述。例：His shoes have warn/wore through. 他的鞋子穿破了。由此可以看出，语法形式与其语义并不总是一致的，不是所有的主动结构都表示主动含义，也不是所有的被动结构都表示被动含义，掌握英语中的
