问题描述
The foolish child is past teaching.
请问这里的 teaching 是属于主动表被动吗?总是要这样吗?
老师答疑
蒋老师:
你的问题可以从两个方面来分析:
▲如果其中的动名词与句子主语之间为被动关系,则这个动名词属于用主动形式表示被动意义。又如:
The problem is past understanding. 这个问题无法理解。
My hair was past praying for. 我的头发已经不可救药了。
▲如果其中的动名词与句子主语之间为主谓关系,则这个动名词属于用主动形式表示主动意义。又如:
The man is past working. 那男子已不能工作了。
She was past caring about anything by then and just wanted the pain to end. 那时,她已经什么都不在乎了,只盼着疼痛能够止住。
The child is past drinking from a bottle. 这个小孩已不再吸奶瓶了。
