What is wrong in the below sentence? Why do the "being" in front of cooked? Why cannot use cooked only?

Wrong : Electricity supply interruption led to many of the dishes cooked in the wong order.


Right: Electricity supply interruption led to many of the dishes being cooked in the wong order. (Gerund in passive voice)

✔ 最佳答案
Ah Wai:

Dishes cooked = (當時) 已被烹調好的食物

Dishes being cooked = (當時) 正被烹調中的食物

只有「當時正被烹調中的食物」才會因停電而烹調出錯;「已被烹調好的食物」又怎能烹調出錯?

因此,第 2 句才是正確合理的表達方式。

句末應為 ...in the WRONG order,而非 WONG order。

你的問題正確問法如下:

What is wrong with the sentence below?

Why is "being" put in front of "cooked"?

Why can we not use "cooked" only?

此外,動詞後 + ing 可以是 gerund,亦可以是 present participle。

分別只是前者作名詞用 (She enjoys SWIMMING.),而後者則作形容詞用 (Who is that CRYING baby?)

001:

dishes COOKED 不是 Past Form Verb,故不存在死物會否煮食的問題。

句中的 dishes COOKED 和 dishes BEING COOKED 都是被動式形容詞。分別只是前者解作「已被烹調好的食物」,後者則解作「正被烹調中的食物」而已。

句中的 dishes 是 Object,不能使用動詞;故其後出現的 cooked 必是 Past Participle ,而非 Past Form Verb 。

首先,being 是個現代分詞 present participle,在這裡與 cooked 一同用於被動式 passive voice。所以 being 不是用作 gerund。

第二,being cooked 強調正在烹調,因為停電影響正在烹調的食物。

because the dishes are not alive, they cannot cook, they have to be cooked, so instead of cooked, need to use being cooked to represent passive.
