4)Передайте следующие предложения в Passive Voice .

Вы прочитали правило и рассмотрели примеры... Думаете, что страдательный залог у вас уже в кармане? Это будет так, только после того, как вы проделаете несколько десятков упражнений на Passive Voice. Только после того, как вы столкнетесь лицом к лицу со всеми особенностями, со всеми случаями, пройдете сквозь препятствия и прочувствуете их, можно отложить временную систему и страдательный залог в частности. Как легко и быстро преодолеть этот этап?

Выполняя задания различного рода, вы шаг за шагом приближаетесь к заветной цели — к свободному владению. Заглядывая в правило, вы понимаете, что не все времена употребляются в страдательном залоге. Так, Perfect Continuous Passive Tense совсем не существует. Так же, как и Continuous Future Passive. Это уже проще.

Какие упражнения на пассивный залог обязательно необходимо проработать?

Огромная сложность в образовании различных форм. Так, необходимо запомнить множество вспомогательных глаголов, а вот формы сказуемого, если вы внимательно читали правило, для всех одинаковая. Поэтому здесь важно проработать только последовательность.

Запомнив когда и какой вспомогательный глагол используется, можно переходить к построению предложений. Очень эффективными считаются упражнения на Passive Voice, которые необходимо перестроить из активного залога. Их часто называют переделки.

Мы прекрасно знаем, что в страдательном залоге используются предлоги by, with, первый из которых показывает, что действие совершает одушевленное подлежащее, а второй — неодушевленное. Чтобы эта информация четко отложилась в памяти, проделайте хотя бы одно упражнение на эту тематику.

Когда вы отработаете все формы, все времена, пройдите комплексный тест Passive Voice , чтобы быть уверенным, что вы все правильно поняли.

Но и здесь есть несколько подводных камней. Например, пассивные конструкции, некоторые глаголы со страдательным значением. Если первые можно выучить наизусть, запомнить со временем, то последние очень часто вызывают затруднение. Необходимо анализировать предложение. Обязательно пройдите несколько упражнений (exercises) по данному вопросу.

Когда все эти этапы будут позади, вы будете уверены, что страдательный залог не просто пройден, а отложен в памяти надолго. Но не забывайте периодически повторять материал. Все со временем забывается, а язык и все его правила особенно. Научитесь жить с английским, проводить с ним время, и тогда у вас все получится.

В английском языке существует 12 основных временных форм. Практически каждая из них имеет 2 формы залога: Active Voice (действительный залог) и Passive Voice (страдательный залог). Если с первым проблем обычно не возникает, потому как он строится по стандартной схеме, страдательный же залог может показаться более сложным. Однако это вовсе не так, и сегодня вы убедитесь в этом сами на примере Present Simple Passive (также известно как Present Indefinite Passive) или страдательного залога в настоящем простом (неопределенном) времени.

Для начала разберем, что же представляет собой страдательный залог, и чем он отличается от действительного. Страдательный залог – это форма залога, которая показывает, что лицо или предмет испытывает действие, о котором упоминается в предложении. В действительном же залоге действие выполняется лицом или предметом. Сравним:

То есть в действительном залоге действие («строим») выполняет лицо («мы»). В пассиве же на предмет («дом») направлено действие («строится»).

Образуется пассивный залог во времени Present Simple с помощью вспомогательного и смыслового глаголов. Вспомогательным выступает глагол to be в настоящем времени, который может меняться по лицам и числам:

Pronouns / Местоимения	to be в настоящем времени
I	am
He	is
We	are

Если вместо местоимения используются существительные, заменяйте их мысленно на местоимения, чтобы определить, какую форму глагола to be необходимо использовать.

В роли смыслового глагола выступает Participle II или причастие прошедшего времени. Для его образования важно уметь определять, является ли глагол правильным или нет. Причастие прошедшего времени правильного глагола образуется путем добавления окончания –ed:

Учитывайте правила присоединения окончания.

А вот причастие прошедшего времени неправильного глагола образуется самостоятельно, не подчиняясь правилам. Эту форму неправильных глаголов, как и две остальные нужно просто заучить:

Соединив вспомогательный и смысловой глаголы, вы получите страдательный залог настоящего времени:

Заметьте, что на русский язык глаголы в этой форме залога чаще всего переводятся с помощью постфикса «ся» и частью окончания «т», то есть с помощью «-тся».

Present Simple Passive: формы предложения

Формы предложений в Passive Voice во времени Present Simple образуются следующим образом:

Утвердительные упражнения в Present Simple Passive

Для образования утвердительной формы используется формула:

В русском языке подобные предложения иногда звучат немного коряво, а потому, если в предложении указывается, кем совершалось действие, переводить предложения могут в действительном залоге.

Отрицательные упражнения в Present Simple Passive

Отрицательная форма образуется путем добавления отрицательной частицы not после вспомогательного глагола:

Обе формы имеют сокращения, которые часто встречаются в речи:

I am not в отрицании может сокращаться только как «I’m not», вариант сокращения «I amn’t», как правило, считается неправильным и используется лишь в определенных частях Соединенного Королевства.

Вопросительные упражнения в Present Simple Passive

В вопросительных вопросах вспомогательный глагол встает на первое место:

На общий вопрос обычно отвечают коротко:

Заметьте, что при отрицательном ответе используется сокращенная форма.

В этом же случае требуется полный ответ, для образования которого нужно превратить вопрос в утвердительное / отрицательное предложение и сделать выбор из представленных в вопросе вариантов:

В специальных вопросах перед вспомогательным глаголом появляется вопросительное слово:

Такой вопрос также требует полного ответа:

Исключение составляют разделительные вопросы, которые используют утвердительное или отрицательное предложение с кратким вопросом на конце:

На этот тип вопроса ограничиваются коротким ответом:

Present Simple Passive: употребление

Случаи употребления этой формы идентичны случаям употребления простого настоящего времени в действительном залоге. То есть эта форма также выражает простые, повторяющиеся действия, привычки, факты, утверждения, стереотипы и другие вещи, которые непосредственно связанны с настоящим временем, но не с этим конкретным моментом. Однако могут появиться сомнения, какой залог лучше использовать в том или другом случае, этот момент мы с вами и разберем.

Страдательный залог предпочтительнее использовать в следующих ситуациях:

Если неизвестно, кто совершает действие:

Если хочется сделать акцент на действии, а не на том, кто его выполняет:

В некоторых случаях предложения на русский могут переводиться в прошедшем времени, как будто в английском использовался Past Simple Passive или страдательный залог простого прошедшего времени. Тем не менее, как бы такая фраза не переводилась, в таких ситуациях подразумевается настоящее время.

Стоит обратить внимание на одну особенность употребления глагола make в страдательном залоге. Если он используется, чтобы выразить, что какой-то предмет был сделан из чего-то, возможно два варианта. Таблица для наглядности:

Примеры предложений:

Если вы знаете, кем было выполнено действие, вы можете либо назвать лицо, либо нет. Для того чтобы назвать лицо, необходимо добавить его в конце предложения с предлогом by:

Если происходит что-то негативное, но нам не хочется кого-то обвинять:

Ничего сложного в Passive Voice или страдательном залоге простого настоящего времени нет. Если вы уже знакомы с темой Present Simple Tense (простое настоящее время) и ознакомились с особенностями употребления залога в этой статье, форма должна даваться вам очень легко. Для закрепления материала выполните упражнения на данную тему, составьте свои собственные примеры и, если есть возможность, попрактикуйте использование подобных предложений с носителями, так как никакие статьи и упражнения не смогут помочь вам «прочувствовать» язык лучше людей, которые используют его на ежедневной основе.
