情景导入
小舟陪外国笔友 David 逛河坊街,David 拿起一把西湖绸伞爱不释手:"Where was it made?"(它是在哪里制造的?)
小舟脱口而出:"Hangzhou people make it."——语法没错,但 David 问的是"伞",回答的主角却变成了"人"。地道的说法是:It was made in Hangzhou.(它是在杭州制造的。)介绍产品时,产品才是主角,制造者往往不重要——这正是被动语态的用武之地。这一讲我们就用被动语态,把"中国制造"写得地道又自豪。
核心词汇
中国制造话题高频词:
| 分类 | 词汇与短语 |
|---|---|
| 传统名产 | silk(丝绸)、tea(茶叶)、china(瓷器)、silk umbrellas(绸伞)、fans(扇子) |
| 现代制造 | high-speed trains(高铁)、smartphones(智能手机)、drones(无人机)、products(产品) |
| 被动短语 | be made in(在……制造)、be made of/from(由……制成)、be known for(因……闻名)、be sold to(被销往)、be proud of(为……自豪) |
句型与结构
结构骨架(三段式):
- 开头段:总起——中国制造随处可见:Nowadays, products made in China can be seen all over the world.
- 主体段:一古一今两条线——传统名产(丝绸、茶叶)+ 现代科技(高铁、手机),全部用被动句型撑起来。
- 结尾段:升华情感——I'm proud of the two words "Made in China".
本讲核心:被动语态 be + 过去分词(介绍产品的"官方语态"):
- 一般现在时被动:Hangzhou is known for its silk and Longjing tea.(杭州以丝绸和龙井茶闻名。)
- 情态动词被动:Chinese high-speed trains can be seen in many countries.(中国高铁在许多国家都能见到。)
易混三兄弟:be made in + 地点(It was made in Hangzhou.);be made of + 看得出的材料(The fan is made of paper and bamboo.);be made from + 看不出的材料(Silk is made from the cocoons of silkworms.)。
提分句型升级:加定语从句——The high-speed trains, which are designed by Chinese engineers, are among the fastest in the world.(被动 + 定语从句,档次立升)
听说训练
写前口头操练(先说顺再下笔):
- Silk is made from the cocoons of silkworms. (丝绸由蚕茧制成。)
- Hangzhou is known for its silk and Longjing tea. (杭州以丝绸和龙井茶闻名。)
- I'm proud of the products made in China. (我为中国制造的产品感到自豪。)
辨析对比
| 想突出的对象 | 例句 | 语态选择 |
|---|---|---|
| 人(制造者) | Workers in Hangzhou make silk umbrellas carefully. | 主动:强调工匠 |
| 物(产品) | Silk umbrellas are made carefully in Hangzhou. | 被动:强调产品 |
| 物(不知谁做) | Tea was discovered in China thousands of years ago. | 被动:发现者不重要 |
文化角
英语里 china 小写指"瓷器",大写 China 才是"中国"——因为古代中国瓷器经海上丝绸之路销往欧洲,欧洲人干脆用产地称呼这种珍宝,一个单词记录了一段贸易史。今天的"中国制造"早已从丝绸瓷器升级为高铁、无人机和新能源汽车,杭州更是从"丝绸之府"变身"电商之都"——从 Made in China 到 Created in China(中国创造),这正是作文结尾升华的好素材。
易错点
- 漏掉 be 动词:The umbrella made in Hangzhou. ❌ → The umbrella was made in Hangzhou. ✅ 被动语态 = be + 过去分词,两个都不能少。
- of / from 不分:Silk is made of silkworms. ❌ → Silk is made from the cocoons of silkworms. ✅ 看不出原材料用 from。
- 该被动却用主动:People can see Chinese trains everywhere. 语法对但平淡 → Chinese trains can be seen everywhere. 产品当主语更地道;但也别句句被动,结尾抒情句要用主动(I'm proud of...),文章才有温度。

Dear David,
I'm glad to hear that you're interested in "Made in China". Let me tell you something about it.
My hometown Hangzhou is known for its silk and Longjing tea. Hangzhou silk, which is made from the cocoons of silkworms, is soft and beautiful. It has been sold to many countries for over a thousand years. Today, China is famous for modern products as well. High-speed trains designed by Chinese engineers can be seen in many countries, and they are fast, safe and comfortable.
From silk to high-speed trains, I'm really proud of the words "Made in China".
Yours, Li Hua
点评:① 一古一今两条线,三要点全覆盖;② 被动语态用足:is known for、is made from、has been sold to、can be seen;③ 亮点:which 定语从句、过去分词短语 designed by 作定语;④ 结尾用主动语态抒情,收束有力。
考点
- "中国制造 / 传统工艺"是九年级上 Unit 5 的核心话题,被动语态是该单元语法主线,中考书面表达常把两者捆绑命题;
- 评分关键:被动语态形式正确(be + 过去分词)、be made in/of/from 用法准确、内容兼顾传统与现代、结尾有情感升华;
- 备考策略:背熟"四大被动短语"(be made in / be made from / be known for / be sold to),再储备杭州丝绸、龙井茶两个本地素材,考场即可组装。

诵读小贴士:这篇范文是"被动语态陈列馆"——诵读时把 is known for、is made from、has been sold to、can be seen 四个被动结构读重音,背熟后它们就是你考场上的"零件库";把丝绸换成瓷器、高铁换成无人机,同一副骨架立刻生成新作文。
