例句2、3中为单个的过去分词作定语,常常放在被修饰名词的前面;例句1为过去分词短语作定语,应放在被修饰名词的后面。
一、过去分词(短语)作定语的位置
1.单个的过去分词作定语通常放在被修饰词之前。
The government decided to rebuild the damaged bridge.
政府决定重新修复那座被毁坏的大桥。
[名师点津] 有些过去分词表示特定含义,单独作定语也放在被修饰的名词之后。如:left(剩余的),given(所给的),concerned(有关的)等。另外,单个过去分词作定语修饰代词(如:something,everything,anything,nothing,nobody等不定代词或those)时,应该放在被修饰的词后面。
There is a little time left.Let’s hurry up.
剩余时间不多了,咱们快点吧。
He is one of those invited.
他是那些被邀请的人之一。
2.过去分词短语作定语则放在被修饰词之后,相当于一个定语从句。
I am fond of the food cooked by your mother.
=I am fond of the food that/which is cooked by your mother.
我很喜欢你妈妈做的饭菜。

=The computer center,which was opened last year,is very popular among the students in this school.
去年开放的电脑中心,很受这个学校的学生欢迎。
[名师点津] 有些过去分词作定语既可前置也可后置,意义不变,但有些过去分词置于被修饰词前后的位置不同,则意义也不相同。
All the broken windows have been repaired.
=All the windows broken have been repaired.
所有坏了的窗户已经修理好了。
