   男:Hello!我是Victor

  女:Nancy

  男:今天我们来谈一下伟大的画家达芬奇吧。

  女:Da Vinci painted the Last Supper, also we can say “The Last Supper was painted by Da Vinci.”

  男:Nancy! 达芬奇,最后的晚餐,这两句话是一个意思?

  女:right! Here's where we can use active voice, “Da Vinci painted the Last Supper,” or passive voice, “The Last Supper was painted by Da Vinci.”

  男:要提醒大家注意英文中的主动和被动语态的细腻用法。

  女:This depends on whether you want to emphasize the painting, or the artist.

  男:强调的主题不同,就可以分别用主动或被动语态。

  女:Da Vinci painted the Last Supper, I use active voice to emphasize the artist.

  男:那我更喜欢《最后的晚餐》这幅画,我用被动语态。The Last Supper was painted by Da Vinci.

  女:You can see The Last Supper if you go to Milan.

  男:买张机票,飞去米兰看看达芬奇《最后的晚餐》吧。Bye!

  女:Ok, see you next time
