beborn

意為“出生于”,后面跟表示時間或地點的介詞短語(be用過去時態形式was或were,因為人的出生為發生在過去的事,所以用一般過去時)。本句型實際上是被動語態,born原形是bear,結構為“be+動詞的過去分詞”。例:Whenwereyouborn?Iwasbornin1975inHunan.PAIRWORKA:Whenwereyouborn?B:Iwasbornin…whenwereyouborn?A:Iwasbornin…--Whoisshe?--SheisJolin.Sheisapopularsinger.--Whenwassheborn?--ShewasborninSeptember1980.JolinSeptember1980apopularsingerA:Who’sthat?B:That’sLiuXiang.HeisanOlympicChampion（冠軍）A:Whenwasheborn?B:HewasbornonJuly13th1981.LiuXiangJuly13th1981OlympicChampionJayJanuary18th1979--Who’sthat?--That’sJay.Heisacoolpopularsinger.--Whenwasheborn?--HewasbornonJanuary18th1979cool,populartwinsSeptember3rd2000lovely,smartA:Whoarethey?B:Theyarelovely,smarttwins.A:Whenweretheyborn?B:TheywerebornonSeptember3rd2000MartinaHingisMichaelJordanDavidBeckhamBorn_____Born_____Born_____Born_____DengYapingping-pongplayerbasketballplayertennisplayerfootballplayer1973196319801975PAIRWORK--Who’sthat?--That’sDengYaping.SheisagreatChinesepingpongplayer.--Whenwassheborn?--Shewasbornin1973.A:Who’sthat?B:That’sDengYaping.SheisagreatChineseping-pongplayer.A:Whenwassheborn?B:Shewasbornin1973.A:Who’sthat?B:That’s_____________.Heisagreat____________________.A:Whenwasheborn?B:Hewasbornin_1963_____.
