He needs to be taken care of. 他需要人照顧。
Not a sound was to be heard. 聽不到一點聲音。
It’s better to be prepared than unprepared. 有準備比沒有準備好。
【注】有時用不定式的完成躰被動式(to have been+過去分詞):

He was seen being taken away by the police. 有人看見他被警察帶走了。
【注】有時用現(xiàn)在分詞的完成躰被動式(having been+過去分詞):非謂語動詞的被動語態(tài)
Having been invited to speak, I’ll start making preparations tomorrow. 因爲邀請我去講話,我明天就得做準備。

由“being+過去分詞”搆成。如:

4. 過去分詞沒有被動式
