In the passive voice the subject of the sentence is the recipient of the action <em>John was hit</em> rather than the perpetrator: <em>John hit</em>. We often use <em>by</em> when the cause of the action is named: The cars were covered by snow.  车都被雪覆盖了。 In this case  被 bei4 is translated as <em>by</em>.  The passive construction is most often used for unpleasant topics in Chinese to emphasize that the person has been negatively affected. You will almost never hear <em>Someone stole my bike</em> in Chinese. The standard would be <em>My bike was stolen</em> -  我自行车被偷了。 Read quickly through the sentences on this page and you will find that most of them refer to situations of arrest, job loss, or other unpleasant circumstances.  被 bei4 can also be used to add emphasis to the recipient of the action by placing them at the front of the sentence, or to avoid mentioning the actor either because you don't know them or don't want to talk about them. An extensive discussion of the use of 被 bei4 as a prepositional form by Chunyu Kit can be found in the following paper (note that that was a passive sentence):<br /><br />Chunyu Kit. 1998. <a href="http://personal.cityu.edu.hk/~ctckit/papers/ba-bei.pdf" target="_blank">Ba and bei as multi-valence prepositions in Chinese (.pdf)</a>. In Benjamin K. T'sou (ed.), <em>Studia Linguistica Sinica</em>, pp.497-522. Language Information Sciences Research Centre, <a href="http://mega.ctl.cityu.edu.hk/%7ectckit/papers/ba-bei.pdf" target="_blank">City University of Hong Kong</a>. <br /><br />I have also included a few examples of 被 as a noun.  It means quilt. It's important to begin to identify the meaning of Chinese characters both by the context and by their position in a sentence.  This one is an easy differentiation.</span><br><br>
