  被动语态的句子中的主语是动作的承受者,即行为的对象。

  被动语态的构成是由助动词be加上及物动词的过去分词。be的人称和数要和句中主语一致,并表现出时态特征。

  凡是不愿或不必说出主动者时,使用被动语态。此外,在强调或突出动作对象时,常使用被动语态。

  现以动词tell为例,将各种人称数和时态的被动语态列表如下:

一般现在时 I +am
He (She) + is + told
You (We, They) + are 
一般过去时 

+ told
 
I (He, She) + was
We (You, They) + were 
一般将来时 
+be told
 
I (We) +will (shall)
You (He, She, They) + will 
过去将来时 
+ be told
 
I (We) + should
You (He, She, They) + would 
现在完成时 
+ been told
 
I (We, You, They) + have
He (She) + has 
过去完成时 I (You, He, She,
+ had + been + told
We, You, They) 
现在进行时 I +am
He (She) + is + being told
You (We, They) + are 
过去进行时 I (He, She) + was
+ being told
We (You, They) + were
