    英語的“be”是個特別動詞;有些語言,如中文和馬來文,並沒有“be”這樣的動詞.

    “Be”除了原形的“be”之外,還有另外七種形式:am,is,are,been,being,was,were.

    在句子中,“be”可以是主動詞(The Principal Verb)或助動詞(The Auxiliary Verb).

    當主動詞時,“be”在性質上屬於接系動詞(The Linking Verb),後面要有名詞、形容詞、地方副詞或短語作補足語(The Complement).例如:

    1.The man is a science teacher.

    2.Mary"s new dresses are colourful.

    3.I have been there before.

    4.Mother is in the kitchen now.

    這四個都是陳述句,可以變成疑問句,方法簡單,把主語和“be”或助動詞對換位置即可:

    5.Is the man a science teacher?

    6.Are Mary"s new dresses colourful?

    7.Have I been there before?

    8.Is mother in the kitchen now?

    當“be”要在祈使句中出現時,它必須借重助動詞“do”或“don"t”之助,如:

    9.Don"t be silly!

    10.Do be obedient!

    11.Don"t be a fool!

    “Be”有兩種縮寫法,如下:

    12.He"s not./He isn"t.

    13.You"re not./You aren"t...

    但“am + not”的縮寫法只有一個:

    14.I"m not.

    有人用“ain"t”,但這並不是標準英語.

    談過了“be”作主動詞的功能,現在看看“be”作助動詞時,有些什麼用法:

    1.“Be + 現在分詞”以組成進行式時態(Continuous Tenses),如:

    15.Tony"s maid is washing his new car.

    16.The children are playing in the field.

    17.Samuel was eating when I came in.

    18.We have been living here since 1959.

    2.“Be + 過去分詞”以組成被動語態(The Passive Voice),如:

    19.Her money in the drawer was stolen.

    20.A number of good jobs are taken up byforeigners.

    21.David studied in Taiwan but has been trained as a language lecturer in America.

    22.Can all the wonderful birds be found in our Bird Park?

    23.The disobedient boy was told to stand out- side the classroom.

    24.Steps are being taken to reduce traffic con- gestion during peak hours.

    25.Dishonest students will be immediately dealt with
