sell out 的用法
1.Mary went to the box office at lunch time,but all tickets had sold out
2.Mary went to the box office at lunch time,but all tickets had been sold out
这两个句子哪个是对的?
答
第2个对,应该是票被卖完。
答
根据此句句意,应用主动式。
但从理论上看,两个都对,但有区别:sell out 一般用主动表被动即可,但若要用被动式,则强调“票被卖完”,除非特殊情况一般不这样用。
因为原句并不强调“票被卖完”这一行为,它只是表明一种客观事实,即“票卖完了”。
答
第二种是对的,无生命的应该用被动语态
答
sell out 是“卖出”的意思,一般用作被动:be sold out 而和这个相区分的是sell well“卖得好”,是固定短语,不用被动语态。
答
2.对,“票”被“卖”,应当用被动态.
这里还有一个习惯的问题:
sell out 卖完 “票卖完了”用被动态,如果要说“这场表演的票卖得很好”就要说:
The tickets for the show sells well.
