热点四：动词语态
[热点透视] 结合时态、语态对考生进行综合考查；在具体语境中恰当选用语态能力。
[难点剖析] ①将构成方式为“vt. +n. + prep.”的动词短语故意变为被动语态，增加试题的干扰性。
例 Much attention should be paid to watching the patients.
②“get+p.p”也可表被动，也是考查热点。
③还有一些过去分词已转化为形容词，失去被动意义，如：hidden, dressed, lost, seated, etc. 仅表状态。
④用主动表被动几种情况：vi.(write\open\sell\re-ad，etc.) 后跟副词作状语，说明主语特征;won’t +do ,表不起作用，句子主语为物，be worth doing ,sth +needs\demands\wants+doing 表示“需要”的意义。
