动名词的复合结构:
由形容词性的物主代词/名词所有格+动名词构=动名词的复合结构,在句子中可作主语、宾语、表语等。物主代词和名词所有格是动名词的逻辑主语。
Do you mind my/me smoking here?
I insisted on my husband/husband’s paying the bill.
在口语中,动名词的复合结构如果作宾语,其中的物主代词常用人称代词的宾格形式,名词所有格常用名词的普通格来代替:

I can’t imagine Mary marrying such a young man. 我很难想象玛丽嫁给这样一个年轻人。
如果动名词的复合结构在句首,就必须用形容词性的物主代词或名词所有格。如:
His smoking caused the fire in the forest.
there be的动名词的复合结构为there being如:
What’s the chance of there being a rain tomorrow?
