被动句的重要时态
①一般现在时/过去时:“be +动词过去分词 ”
②完成时态
A.现在完成时被动语气:“have been done”
B.过去完成时被动语气:“had been done”
③一般将来时被动语气:
即由“shall do”或“will do”变为“shall be done”或“will be done”。

⑤现在进行时、过去进行时
现在进行时或过去进行时都是“be”的人称、时和数的形式加“doing”。而被动态则是“be”加上“being done”的形式,“being”是不变的。现在进行时和过去进行时的被动态是被动态的重点,容易搞错。例如:
主动:The workers are repairing the main building of the Northeast Engineering Institute.
被动:The main building of the Northeast Engineering Institute is being repaired by the workers.
工人们正在维修东北工学院主楼。
