简介:
Victor:今天我们来谈一下伟大的画家达芬奇吧。
Nancy:Da Vinci painted the Last Supper,
also we can say “The Last Supper was painted by Da Vinci.”
Victor:Nancy! 达芬奇,最后的晚餐,这两句话是一个意思?
Nancy:right! Here’s where we can use active voice,
“Da Vinci painted the Last Supper,” or passive voice,
“The Last Supper was painted by Da Vinci.”
Victor:要提醒大家注意英文中的主动和被动语态的细腻用法。
Nancy:This depends on whether you want to emphasize the painting, or the artist.
Victor:强调的主题不同,就可以分别用主动或被动语态。
Nancy:Da Vinci painted the Last Supper,
I use active voice to emphasize the artist.
Victor:那我更喜欢《最后的晚餐》这幅画,我用被动语态。
The Last Supper was painted by Da Vinci.
Nancy:You can see The Last Supper if you go to Milan.
Victor:买张机票,飞去米兰看看达芬奇《最后的晚餐》吧。Bye!
Nancy:Ok, see you next time
