　　Part II：语法学习

　　重温被动语态以及have sth. done结构

　　概念解释：把握被动语态的关键在于快速识别主语与谓语(即总论中的1和2)的关系。如果1行使的2，那就是主动关系；如果1是2的承受体，那就是被动关系。此外，have sth. done体现的也是一种被动关系：这里的sth是一个动词的承受体。人们一般将此结构理解为：让某人做某事，其实，很多情况下不见得是再有第二者去行使这个动作的，行使该动作的就是主语本身，但不管怎样，这个sth总是处于被动状态，也就是说，不管是第一者做的，还是第二者做的，最终都是这个sth.被做了。

　　示例1：He had his car washed this morning.(翻译为“他今天早上洗车了”就非常合适。可能是找别人洗的，也可能就是他本人洗的，但都不影响“his car”被washed的含义。)

　　示例2：I’ll have to have my hair cut short sometime this week.(可能比较多的情况下是找理发师做这工作，但确实也可能是自己搞一下，但对于my hair来讲呢，都逃脱不了被“cut”的局面。)

　　Halloween(万圣节)

　　Some people really enjoy Christmas, or Valentine’s Day(情人节), or Easter复活节), or have a huge family reunion(家庭团圆)or barbecue(烧烤)on the Fourth of July(美国国庆节). Some people look forward to stuffing(塞满)themselves with turkey(火鸡)every year on Thanksgiving(感恩节). Great as those are, they don’t compare with my favorite. I love Halloween!

　　Why Halloween? Well, Halloween is the one night of the year when we can all get dressed up(穿着打扮起来)as someone else, pretend and let our imaginations run wild(自由驰骋). Even adults(成人)get a free pass(自由出入证)to go back to their childhood and become that kid still inside all of us. It’s also the one night of the year when we get to shine(映照)light on the dark, and confront(勇敢面对)monsters(妖怪), ghosts(鬼), witches(巫婆), and all things dead. We get to confront our biggest fears, as both children and adults, and reassure(使。。。安心，坚定) ourselves that there’s really no reason to be afraid of things we see at night.
