Lesson 84

Language study:

本單元學習動詞-ing 形式作表語, 定語和賓語補足語:

1). 動詞-ing 形式作表語通常表示主語所具有的特性, 稱之為現在分詞. 現在分詞相當于形容詞. 能夠用于表語的現在分詞常見的有:

amusing 有趣的; astonishing 令人驚訝的; confusing 迷惑的; discouraging 令人喪氣的; disappointing 令人掃興的; encouraging 令人鼓舞的; exciting 令人興奮的; interesting 有趣的; missing 不見的; moving 動人的; promising 大有希望的; shocking 令人震驚的; puzzling 莫名其妙的; surprising 令人奇怪的. 例如:

The colour is pleasing to the eyes. 這種顏色悅目.

The film is frightening. 這部電影很嚇人.

2). 動詞-ing 形式作表語, 為泛指意義的動作, 被稱之為動名詞. 例如:

1. My hobby is growing flowers. 我的業余愛好是種花.

2. What I thought most was going to France. 我考慮得最多的是去法國.

3. My favorite sport is playing table tennis. 我喜愛的運動是打乒乓球.

***動名詞和現在分詞在形式上完全相同, 它們都能做表語. 試自行比較它們的區別.

3). 動詞-ing 形式作定語, 表示被修飾詞所具有的特征. 這是現在分詞. 例如:

1. a walking child = a child who is walking. 走路的孩子

2. an interesting story = a story which is intereting. 有趣的故事

3. a sleeping boy睡覺的男孩; a waiting taxi一輛正在等人的出租車.

4. the boiling water沸水; working people勞動人民;

4). 動詞-ing 形式作定語, 表示 “供作……之用”(used for) 這是動名詞. 例如:

1. a walking stick = a stick used for walking手杖

2. a hiding place藏身之處; a racing bicycle賽車; building materials建筑材料;

3. drinking water飲用水; a sleeping car臥車; a waiting room侯車室

***動名詞和現在分詞在形式上完全相同, 它們都能做定語. 但兩者之間有區別. 現在分詞做定語時, 它和修飾的名詞有邏輯上的主謂關系, 表示這個名詞的動作; 動名詞做定語, 作 “供……之用” 翻譯. 請自行比較上面做定語的-ing形式.

5). 動詞-ing 形式作賓語補足語, 這是現在分詞. 感覺動詞feel; find; hear; smell; catch; notice; watch; observe; see; look at; listen to; 以及有些使役動詞如: have; send; leave (留下); set; get; keep等都可以接現在分詞做賓補. 例如:

1. I hear someone knocking at the door.

2. What he said set me thinking carefully.

3. On the way home , I saw Tom changing the tyre of his car.

4. I’ll have the taxi waiting at the entrance.
