GRAMMAR
A. PASSIVE FORMS (Cont’d).
1. Progressive tenses in passive (Thì Tiếp diễn ở dạng bị động).. (Thì tiếp diễn có cấu trúc : BE + PRESENT PARTICIPLE (V-ing)). e.g.: They are repairing broken chairs.
(Họ đang sửa các ghế hư).
-*• Broken chairs are being repaired.
People are using English almost everywhere in the world.
(Người ta sử dụng tiếng Anh hầu như khắp mọi nơi trên thế giới).
-* Engish is being used almost everywhere in the world.
Muốn viết thì Tiếp diễn ở dạng bị dộng, chúng ta thềm chữ BEING vào giữa động từ Be và Hiện tại phân từ ở Quá khứ phân từ.
2. Equivalents of Modals in Passive forms (Động 'từ tương đương của Khiếm trợ động ở dạng bị động).
Động từ tương đương của Modals là
CAN : be able to
MAY : be possible to, be allowed to
MUST : have to
WILL / SHALL : be going to
e.g.: They have to do the exercises again.
(Chúng phải làm các bài tập một lần nữa).
-*■ The exercises have to be done again.
People are going to ban trucks from city centres.
(Người ta sẽ cấm xe tải vào trung tâm thành phố).
-* Trucks are going to be banned from city centres.
Các dộng từ tương dương với modals có dạng bị dộng giống như modals: thêm chữ BE giữa động từ tương đương và động từ chánh (viết ở quá khứ phân từ).
