This paper aims to address two significant concepts, Prototypicality and Markedness, in the studies of the categorization of the English passive system, and holds that there always exists vagueness at the category boundary and that the category is gradient. It proposes that the category passive, starting from the prototype of the unmarked form of the agentful true passive, extends in a chained way of concatenation to the less peripheral and less marked form of the get-passive. The category is then said to expand in the way of radiation to more peripheral, untypical and marked forms of the causative passive and to the [Be+V-able] construction and finally spreads to the most peripheral and marked form of the [V1+V2-ing] construction. It is also suggested that great importance should be attached to prototypical and unmarked cases of passives, and at the same time, peripheral and marked passives should not be neglected. Only by doing so can we understand the passive system in English comprehensively.
