B1Kalimat pasif15 menit
Passive: sekarang dan lampau
The passive: present and past
Gunakan passive ketika tindakan atau hasilnya lebih penting daripada orang yang melakukannya.
Dalam kalimat aktif, subjek melakukan tindakan: Farmers grow rice in this valley. Dalam kalimat pasif, subjek menerima tindakan: Rice is grown in this valley. Kita memakai passive ketika kita tidak tahu siapa yang melakukan sesuatu, ketika sudah jelas, atau ketika tidak penting.
| Tense | Bentuk | Contoh |
|---|---|---|
| Present simple | am / is / are + past participle | These bikes are made in two small factories. |
| Present simple negative | isn't / aren't + past participle | Cash isn't accepted in this café. |
| Past simple | was / were + past participle | The bridge was built in 1890. |
| Past simple negative | wasn't / weren't + past participle | The letters weren't delivered on time. |
| Questions | is / was (etc.) + subject + past participle | Where were these photos taken? |
Untuk menyebutkan siapa yang melakukan tindakan, pakai by: The song was written by a teenager from Nairobi. Tambahkan by + orang hanya jika informasi ini baru atau menarik. Kalimat seperti My bag was found by someone terdengar aneh, karena someone tidak menambah informasi.
Di mana kita sering melihatnya
Passive umum dipakai dalam berita, pengumuman, petunjuk, dan penjelasan proses. Bentuk ini membantu penulis berfokus pada apa yang terjadi dan pada hasilnya.
