语法解析
动词-ing作主语和宾语
动词-ing作主语
(1)意义:动词-ing形式做主语往往表示经常性、习惯性的动作,其被动形式为being done.
(2)谓语动词的数:单个的动词-ing形式做主语时,谓语动词通常用单数形式;但是两个及以上的动词-ing形式做主语时,谓语动词要根据叙述的事来确定。如果是一件事,谓语动词要用单数形式;如果是两件或多件事情,谓语动词用复数形式。
Saying is easier than doing. 说比做更容易。
Being praised by his teacher made him regain confidence.
被老师表扬使他重新获得了信心。
Collecting stamps and watching movies are his hobbies.
集邮和看电影是他的爱好。
(3)动词-ing形式做主语时,如果要突出动作的执行者,要在动词-ing形式前加上其逻辑主语,这个逻辑主语要用名词所有格或形容词性物主代词,不能用名词的普通格或人称代词宾格。
