During the summer, I noticed that the leaves of the tree were beginning to wither. Clusters of tiny insects called aphids were to be found on the underside of the leaves. They were visited by a large colony of ants which obtained a sort of honey from them.

请问为什么Clusters of tiny insects called aphids were to be found on the underside of the leaves. 用to be?
最佳答案
to be+过去分词:表示动词不定式的被动语态。
be to be:be加动词不定式,表示将要发生的情况。
insects本来是find的宾语,这里做主语,所以用了被动语态。
这小句话的意思是:成群小小的蚜虫可以在树叶下找到。(这里翻译的时候用了主动语态,符合汉语表达习惯。)
请参考。
