be able to可接被动形式吗?
复习书上写be able to一般不接被动形式,但是如果把“They are able to overcome the difficulties.”改写成“The difficulties are able to be overcome by themselves”算错吗?
是by them 打错了

不对,这完全是按中国式思维“创造”出来的“英语”.
be able to 表一种能力,他们有能力自己战胜困难.
反过来,变成:困难有能力被他们战胜?
明白了吧?

be able to 一般不用被动,The difficulties are able to be overcome by themselves这句话不符合习惯用法!

不算错。但是不地道。

这个说法是不对的, be able to是指某人有能力做好某件事情, 是不用被动形式的。
如果你要用被动, 那这句话应该说成The difficulties can be overcome by them。
