HQ6edu00614：王老师您好！
这个句子成份我又感到困惑：He was said to have been removed from the position of manager for a recent conflict with an important customer这句中He作主语，was said作谓语吗？这是什么时态呢？还是was said to have been removed整个作谓语呢？from the position of manager for a recent conflict with an important customer又作什么成份呢？望王老师有空时回答一下，谢谢！
老师回复：
你好！
said to have been removed from the position of manager谓语
for a recent conflict with an important customer原因状语
was said to do sth./据说
"was said"是动词过去时态的被动语态结构。
to have been removed from../这是完成时态不定式的被动语态的结构。
该句的含义是“据说他因为最近和一位重要的客户发生了冲突而被撤销了经理的职位”。

sprinklers were used to protect citrus tress from being damaged
请问这句中being damaged是不是一般现在时的被动语态呢？那句子如果改为这样对不对呢：sprinklers were used to protect citrus tress from damaged这用damage的过去分词不也能表达被动语态吗，为何要加个being才行呢？
请老师有空时给我指点，谢谢！
老师回复：
你好！
sprinklers were used to protect citrus tress from being damaged这句中being damaged不是一般现在时的被动语态。being damaged是动名词的被动语态结构，这个结构作介词of的宾语，因为"柑橘树"和“damage(损坏)”之间是动宾关系（动词和宾语之间的关系：损坏柑橘（柑橘被损坏）），所以需要使用动名词的被动语态结构。该句的含义是“洒水装置被用来保护柑橘树，防止其被损坏”。
类似的结构，如：I have a book to be read.(ti be read是不定式的被动语态结构，因为书是被读，该不定式结构作定语，修饰book)我有一本书要读。
Happy New Year!
