Was 加动词 ed形式表示过去被动,那么一直被动到现在怎么表示?比如这个单词从过去的一些年一直被描述为...This word has been described as ...in past years 这么表达对吗?请说明原因,避免教科书死板语法,谢谢。
一直被做 的谓语形态为has/have been being done.
从过去的一些年一直到现在被描述为的翻译如下:
This word has been being described as
类似例句:
It has been being replaced by the elastic enterprise.
一直被弹性企业所取代。
Ailing jewelry retailer Zale Corporation (ZLC) has been being lifted by the rising September tide, up 15 percent this month already.
境况不佳的珠宝零售商Zale公司(ZLC)受到9月上涨行情的提振,本月已上涨15%。

仔细对比以上主被动时态表格,观察每一个时态的谓语构成形态,以及助动词和主动词的组合形式。
①若从过去某时刻开始一直延续到现在,就用have/has been + done.如题主所给的句子:
This word has been described as…in the past.(这个词过去一直被描述为…。)
②若从过去(距现在)较远的某时刻一直延续到过去(距现在)较近的另一时刻,就用had been done. 如:
Lin Shengbin had been considered by many as being the model husband and father before he posted the picture of his new-born baby.(在贴出其新生婴儿照片前,林生斌被许多人认为是模范丈夫和父亲。)
