Passive Voice - Strona bierna
Passive Voice
Fifteen-year-old Alison Watts, who was rescued from a fire at school two weeks ago, has been discharged from hospital today. She is reported to be fully recovered from her injuries. It has been said that the fire was started by some teenagers playing with matches in one of the classrooms. The case is being investigated by the police.
Strony biernej używamy:
- gdy jakaś czynność jest ważniejsza od jej wykonawcy,
np: My bike was mended last Tuesday. - gdy sprawca czynności jest nieznany,
np: My sister was mugged yesterday. - kiedy chcemy podkreślić, że dana osoba była sprawcą czynności,
np. This film was directed by Steven Spielberg.
