獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu):
獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)，又叫獨(dú)立結(jié)構(gòu)（absolute construction）。它在句法上游離于句子主體之外，跟主句沒有任何句法聯(lián)系；但在意義上卻與主句緊密聯(lián)系在一起，共同構(gòu)成一個(gè)完整的語(yǔ)義環(huán)境。獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)沒有主語(yǔ)和謂語(yǔ)，只有邏輯上的主語(yǔ)，因此，它在句法上不是句子，而是一個(gè)獨(dú)立于句子成分之外的獨(dú)特結(jié)構(gòu)形式。
獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)可置于句首、句尾，用逗號(hào)與主句隔開。
二、獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)的形式
獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)可分為兩部分，一部分是名詞或代詞（主格），起著邏輯主語(yǔ)的作用；另一部分由形容詞、副詞、名詞、分詞、不定式、介詞短語(yǔ)等構(gòu)成，表示前面名詞或代詞的狀態(tài)、狀況或動(dòng)作。
1）名詞／代詞＋形容詞
I heard that she got injured in the accident, my heart full of worry．我聽說她在這場(chǎng)事故中受了傷，內(nèi)心充滿擔(dān)憂。
He stood silent in the moon-light, his door open．月光下，門開著，他默默地站立在那。
2）名詞／代詞＋現(xiàn)在分詞
Winter coming, it gets colder and colder．冬天來了，天氣越來越冷了。
The rain having stopped, he went out for a walk．雨停了，他出去散步。
3）名詞／代詞＋過去分詞
More time given, we should have done it much better．如果給我們更多的時(shí)間，我們會(huì)做得更好。
The boy stood there, his right hand raised．那個(gè)男生站在那里，右手高舉。
4）名詞／代詞（主格）＋不定式
Here are the first two volumes, the third one to come out next month
這是前兩卷,第三卷將于下月問世。
The two boys said good-bye to each other, one to go home, the other to go to his friend's．
兩個(gè)男孩彼此道了別，一個(gè)回了家，另一個(gè)去了他朋友家。
5）名詞／代詞十介詞短語(yǔ)
The huntsman entered the forest, gun in hand．那位獵人手里提著槍走進(jìn)了樹林。
注意：這里gun in hand還可以說成with a gun in his hand，但不可以說a gun in hand或gun in his hand。
6）名詞／代詞十副詞
Nobody in, the thief took a lot of things away．由于沒有人，小偷拿走了許多東西。
Lunch over, he left the house．But he was thinking．午飯結(jié)束，他離開屋。但他還在考慮。
7）名詞／代詞＋名詞
He fought the wolf, a stick his only weapon．他和狼搏斗著，唯一的武器是一根棍棒。
8）with復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)
它的構(gòu)成是：“with ＋ 賓語(yǔ) ＋ 賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)”。賓語(yǔ)由代詞、名詞、名詞詞組充當(dāng)，賓補(bǔ)由分詞、不定式、形容詞、副詞、介詞短語(yǔ)、名詞等充當(dāng)。
Holms and Watson sat with the light on for half an hour．
福爾摩斯和沃森坐著，讓燈亮了半個(gè)小時(shí)。（介詞短語(yǔ)）
He used to sleep with the door open．他過去常開著門睡覺。（形容詞）
With a boy leading the way, they started towards the village．
由一個(gè)小男孩領(lǐng)著路，他們朝那個(gè)村子去了。（現(xiàn)在分詞）
With the work done, he went home．工作做完后，他回了家。（過去分詞）
With you to help us, we will finish the task in time．
有你來幫助，我們將會(huì)及時(shí)完成任務(wù)。（不定式）
Hong Kong looks more beautiful with thou-sands of lights on at night．
夜里，香港萬(wàn)盞燈火，分外美麗。（副詞）
從以上例句可以看出：在with復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)中，賓語(yǔ)和賓補(bǔ)之間形成邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系。當(dāng)這種主謂關(guān)系表現(xiàn)為主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí)，用現(xiàn)在分詞；當(dāng)這種主謂關(guān)系表現(xiàn)為被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí)，用過去分詞；當(dāng)這種主謂關(guān)系表示將來意義時(shí)，用不定式；當(dāng)這種主謂關(guān)系表示伴隨意義時(shí)，用現(xiàn)在分詞或副詞。
三、獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)的功能
獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)主要用于描繪性文字中，其作用相當(dāng)于一個(gè)狀語(yǔ)從句，常用來表示時(shí)間、原因、條件、行為方式或伴隨情況等。
1）表示時(shí)間 Her work done, she sat down for a cup of tea．她干完了活，坐下來喝茶。
2）表示條件 The condition being favourable, he may succeed．若條件有利，他或許能成功。
3）表示原因 There being no taxis, we had to walk．沒有出租車，我們只好步行。
4）表示伴隨情況 Almost all metals are good conductors, silver being the best of all．
幾乎所有的金屬都是良導(dǎo)體，而銀則是最好的導(dǎo)體。
四、形式選擇中應(yīng)該注意的問題
1）現(xiàn)在分詞還是過去分詞？
在獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)中，主格詞與分詞形成邏輯主謂關(guān)系時(shí)，用現(xiàn)在分詞。如：Winter coming ，it gets colder and colder．一句中，“春天”和“到來”是邏輯主謂關(guān)系，用現(xiàn)在分詞；主格詞與分詞形成邏輯動(dòng)賓關(guān)系時(shí)，用過去分詞。如：More money given，we should have sent more employees to the mother company to get trained．一句中，“money”和“give”是動(dòng)賓關(guān)系（被動(dòng)關(guān)系），用過去分詞。
在獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)中，如果強(qiáng)調(diào)分詞的時(shí)間發(fā)生在主句動(dòng)詞時(shí)間之前，常用現(xiàn)在分詞完成時(shí)態(tài)表示。如：The snow having stopped，she went out to sweep the snow in the yard．
現(xiàn)在分詞與過去分詞的性質(zhì)完全不同，但在獨(dú)立結(jié)構(gòu)中，有時(shí)卻有共同之處：現(xiàn)在分詞的被動(dòng)式有時(shí)可以簡(jiǎn)化為過去分詞。例如：
As her skirt was caught on a nail, she could not move．
→Her skirt being caught on a nail, she could not move．
→Her skirt caught on a nail, she could not move．
After his work had been finished, he went home．
→His work having been finished, he went home．
→His work finished, he went home．
2）分詞結(jié)構(gòu)還是獨(dú)立結(jié)構(gòu)？
上面的例子告訴我們，獨(dú)立結(jié)構(gòu)常常可以看作是由主從復(fù)合句中的從句變來的。但是，如果從句和主句的主語(yǔ)相同，則不可改為獨(dú)立結(jié)構(gòu)。例如：
Since he was very tired with his walk，he soon fell asleep and forgot his troubles．
不可改為：He being very tired with his walk，he．．．但可改為：Being very tired with his walk ，he．．．
比較：判斷動(dòng)名詞復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)的方式
主語(yǔ)位置上，或動(dòng)詞、介詞后的"名詞代詞 + 非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞"，如果表示的是一個(gè)事件則是動(dòng)名詞復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)，而不是"名詞 + 定語(yǔ)。請(qǐng)看以下各例：
He insisted on the windows _____ open while he was sleeping.
A. left B. being left C. leaving D. be left
The road __________ caused us to stop our work for half an hour.
A. blocked B. was blocked C. blocking D. being blocked
