The song was composed by a friend of mine.这个问题必须予以处理. This matter must be dealt with.这座桥将在今年年底建成.The construction of the bridge will be completed by the end of this year.(3) 汉语某些习语的译法:有些汉语习语,语态上是主动的,但英译时要⽤被动语态,特别是英语中以IT作形式主语的句式.应该说,基本情况是健康的.

汉语和英语都有主动语态和被动语态之分,可是对于两种语态的运用不尽相同。
一般来说,英语里运用被动语态的频率明显高于汉语。
从句法角度看。
英语重形合,注重句法结构和表达形式。
当主动式不便于表达时,出于造句的需要或修辞的考虑,往往采用被动式,除此之外,从文体的角度看,某些文体较多使用被动句,以迎合其表达的需要。
昨晚我盖了两条被子。
(不说“昨晚我被两条被子盖着”)Last night I was covered up with two quilts.困难克服了,工作完成了,问题也解决了。
The difficulties have been overcome, the work has been finished and the problem solved.树被风刮倒。
The tree was blown down by the wind. 风把树刮倒了。
The wind blew down the tree.她被人杀害了。
She was killed. 有人把她杀害了。
Someone killed her.敌人的阴谋被揭穿了。
The enemy’s plot was exposed.我们把敌人的阴谋揭穿了。

The Thatched house was destroyed by the autumn storm. 她被花言巧语所陶醉。
