Was broken 用于表达过去某个时点物品的状态。My new phone was broken when I got it, so it probably happened while it was being shipped to me.我的新手机在我拿到的时候就坏了,所以它可能是在运输给我的过程中损坏的。The bookshelf is broken, but Tom said he'd stop by to fix it.书架坏了,但汤姆说他会顺路过来修的。Broke对应的被动语态,不是was broken,而是is broken。Broke是过去发生的,但是当你看到它坏了的时候,broken是它当前的状态,所以要用is broken。
