Look, all the pears were crushed by the big watermelon.In Chinese, the passive voice is not used as often as it is in English. It often carries negative connotations and usually appears in situations that are unpleasant for the receiver of the action, or in situations where something is lost. In a passive-voice sentence with 被/叫/让，the agent of the action does not always have to be specified. If the agent of the action is someone that is not identifiable or need not be identified, it can be referred to simply as “人”.My credit card was taken away.My brothers are listening to music really loud. The noise is driving me nuts.Language Practice H. Not His Lucky Day! (Textbook, p. 248) 请跟你的同学练习说中文Language Practice I. Workout Queen/king! (Textbook, p. 248) 请跟你的同学练习说中文Language Practice F.
