动词不定式的被动语态
动词不定式有两种被动语态形式：

完成式to have been written

分裂不定式
有时在不定式符号"to"和动词原形之间插入一个副词，这种现象叫做分裂不定式(split infinitive)。插入动词不定式的副词，习惯上往往与不定式动词连在一起。如：
He likes to half close his eyes.他喜欢半闭着眼睛。
Our object is to further cement friendly relations between the two countries.我们的目的是进一步加强两国之间的友好关系。
At first he wasn't interested in bookkeeping，but later he began to actually like it.起初他对会计工作没有兴趣，但到后来倒喜欢起它来了
