语法精讲
动词-ing和-ed形式
动词-ing形式和-ed形式是非谓语动词的两种非常重要的形式,在句子中可以作状语、定语、宾语补足语、表语等。
一、动词-ing形式和-ed形式作状语
1.与句子主语的关系
动词-ing形式作状语时表示的动作是句子主语发出的动作,它们之间是主动关系。
动词-ed形式作状语时表示的动作是句子主语承受的动作,它们之间是被动关系。
Not knowing what to do,he went to the organiser for help.(he和know之间是主动关系)
由于不知道做什么,他去找组织者求助。
Given more attention,the founders could have done better.(the founders和give之间是被动关系)
如果这些创始人受到更多关注,他们本可以做得更好。
2.动词-ing形式和-ed形式在句子中作状语,可以表示时间、原因、条件、伴随、让步等。
(1)作时间状语,相当于时间状语从句,有时可以在前面加一个表时间的连词,如when,while等。
Hearing the news,they immediately took action to stop the study.
=When they heard the news,they immediately took action to stop the study.
听到这个消息后,他们立即采取行动阻止了这项研究。
Asked (=When he was asked) why he looked so bothered,he lowered his head.当他被问到为什么他看上去如此担心时,他低下了头。
(2)作原因状语,相当于原因状语从句。
Being poor,he couldn’t afford a big house in that region.
=As he was poor,he couldn’t afford a big house in that region.
因为穷,他在那个地区买不起一所大房子。
Blamed (=Because he was blamed) by his boss,he decided to change his job.
因为被老板责备了,他决定换工作。
(3)作条件状语,相当于条件状语从句。
Using your head,you are likely to find a nice way to overcome the difficulty.
=If you use your head,you are likely to find a nice way to overcome the difficulty.
动动脑筋,你很可能找到一个好的方法来克服困难。
Grown (=If these seeds are grown) in rich soil,these seeds can grow fast.
如果被种在肥沃的土壤里,这些种子能长得很快。
(4)作伴随状语,相当于and连接的并列句。
He walked down the river,thinking about the current problems.
=He walked down the river and thought about the current problems.
他沿着河流一边走,一边考虑着当前的问题。
The organiser entered the hall,(and he was) followed by a group of volunteers.
组织者进入了大厅,后面跟着一群志愿者。
(5)作让步状语,相当于让步状语从句。
Liking the car too much,I have no enough money to buy it.
=Although/Though/While I like the car too much,I have no enough money to buy it.
虽然我非常喜欢这辆车,但是我没有足够的钱买它。
Offered (=Although/Though/While he was offered) such a nice job,Tom didn’t feel contented at all.
虽然被提供了那么好的工作,但汤姆一点儿也不感到满足。
语法拓展:
1.动词-ing形式作结果状语,是表示随着谓语动作的发生而产生的自然结果,前面有时候可以加thus。不定式作结果状语时常表示出乎意料的结果,前面常加only。试比较:
The glass fell off the table,breaking into pieces.
杯子从桌子上掉下来,摔成了碎片。
I hurried to the playground,only to find that the bricks had been removed.
我匆忙赶到操场,却发现那些砖已经被搬走了。
2.having done作状语,强调动作发生在谓语动词的动作之前。
Having lived in Beijing for many years,he knows the city well.
因为在北京住了很多年,他对这座城市很熟悉。
注意:动词-ing形式作状语时,其逻辑主语必须与句子的主语一致。如果它们有自己的独立主语,则要用独立主格结构:当逻辑主语与其后的动词是主谓关系时,用动词-ing 形式;当逻辑主语与其后的动词是动宾关系时,用动词-ed 形式。
Carrying a large and heavy box,she tripped on a step and fell.(√)
Carrying a large and heavy box,her foot tripped on a step and fell.(×)
Time permitting,we can complete the project.
如果时间允许,我们就能完成这个项目。(逻辑主语Time与 permit之间存在主谓关系,独立主格结构作条件状语)
All the work done,they decided to treat themselves to a movie.
所有的工作都做完了,他们决定去看一场电影犒劳自己。(逻辑主语All the work与do之间存在动宾关系,独立主格结构作原因或时间状语)
二、动词-ing形式和-ed形式作定语
动词-ing形式作定语多表示主动或正在进行,也可指事物的用途,与它所修饰的词往往构成逻辑上的主动关系;动词-ed形式作定语多表示被动或完成,与它所修饰的词构成逻辑上的被动关系。单个的动词-ing形式或-ed形式作定语往往前置,动词-ing或-ed短语往往后置。
The young man working in that institute is my brother.(主动)
那个在研究院工作的年轻人是我的哥哥。
No one is allowed to speak aloud in the reading room.(用途)
阅览室里不准大声说话。
China is a developing country,where most people are leading a contented life.(进行)
中国是一个发展中国家,这里的大部分人都过着满意的生活。
The retired man is very interested in recycling these materials.(完成)
那个退休的人对回收利用这些材料非常感兴趣。
Who were the so-called guests invited to your flat last night?(被动)
昨晚被邀请到你公寓的那些所谓的客人是谁呀?
The injured were not bothered to walk in the yard;they preferred to lie in bed.(被动)
这些伤者懒得在院子里散步,他们更愿意躺在床上。
语法拓展:
1.不及物动词的过去分词作定语不表示被动,而表示完成,如:
a retired worker=a worker that has retired一名退休工人
the fallen leaves=the leaves that have fallen落叶
a developed country=a country which has developed一个发达国家
2.过去分词(done)、现在分词的被动语态(being done)与动词不定式的被动语态(to be done)作定语的区别
意义
形式 语态 时态
done 被动 完成
being done 被动 进行
to be done 被动 尚未发生
The building built last year is a new institute for that university.
去年建造的大楼是那所大学的一个新研究院。
The building being built now is a new institute for that university.
现在正在建造的大楼是那所大学的一个新研究院。
The building to be built next month is a new institute for that university.
下个月将要建造的大楼是那所大学的一个新研究院。
三、动词-ing形式和-ed形式作宾语补足语
作宾语补足语时,动词-ing形式表示正在进行的主动意义,动词-ed形式则表示已经完成的被动意义。
-ing形式 表示主动,动作正在进行,宾语是动词-ing形式所表示动作的执行者。
I heard her singing an English song when I passed by her room yesterday.
昨天我经过她的房间时,听到她正在唱一首英文歌曲。
-ed形式 表示被动,动作已完成,宾语是动词-ed形式所表示动作的承受者。
I heard the English song sung many times.
我多次听到有人唱这首英文歌。
具体用法如下:
1.位于感官动词,如see,hear,feel,watch,find,notice等后。
We saw the smog filling the whole city in that winter.
那个冬天,我们看到雾霾笼罩了整座城市。
When I found him struggling for a chance to go abroad,I felt a little surprised.

我打开杂志,却发现那则广告被剪掉了。
When she heard her husband affected by a deadly disease,she was worried about him.
当她听说丈夫感染了致命疾病时,她非常担心他。
2.位于使役动词,如make,have,get,keep,leave等后。
The young conductor was a little shy,so it was hard to get him talking.
这位年轻的指挥有些害羞,让他开口讲话是很难的。
He rushed out of the house,leaving his little son crying.
他冲出了房子,留下他的小儿子在那里哭泣。
The clock doesn’t work,so you’d better have its battery changed.
那个钟停摆了,你最好把电池换掉。
She still couldn’t make herself understood in English.
她仍然不能用英语表达自己的意思。
3.用于with复合结构中。
With so many people looking at her,the young performer felt nervous.
这么多人看着她,这位年轻的表演者感到很紧张。
With all the problems settled,he felt relieved.
所有问题都解决了,他感到如释重负。
注意:make后的宾语补足语一般不用现在分词表主动,而只用过去分词表被动。
He raised his voice to make himself heard.
他提高了嗓门,以便让别人听到他的声音。
四、动词-ing形式和-ed形式作表语
1.作表语的动词-ing形式包括现在分词和动名词。现在分词作表语往往具有形容词的性质,说明主语的性质、特征等;动名词作表语多表示抽象或习惯性的动作,一般说明主语的内容。
The news that so many accidents occurred last week was worrying.
上周发生了那么多事故,这消息令人担忧。
My hobby is collecting all kinds of posters on the wall.
我的爱好是收集墙上的各种海报。
2.动词-ed形式作表语,主要表示主语的心理感觉或所处的状态,含有被动的意义。
(1)过去分词作表语,多表示主语所处的状态或所具备的特征,多位于系动词之后,这些系动词有be,remain,feel,seem,look,become等。
When the organiser left the meeting room,some members remained seated there.
当组织者离开会议室时,一些成员还坐在那里。
When they arrived in that region,they found that they were lost.

我们对那位具有坚定决心的人的故事感到大为惊奇。

1.宾补;2.状语;3.定语;4.定语;5.状语;6.宾补。
动词-ing和-ed形式
动词-ing形式和-ed形式是非谓语动词的两种非常重要的形式,在句子中可以作状语、定语、宾语补足语、表语等。
一、动词-ing形式和-ed形式作状语
1.与句子主语的关系
动词-ing形式作状语时表示的动作是句子主语发出的动作,它们之间是主动关系。
动词-ed形式作状语时表示的动作是句子主语承受的动作,它们之间是被动关系。
Not knowing what to do,he went to the organiser for help.(he和know之间是主动关系)
由于不知道做什么,他去找组织者求助。
Given more attention,the founders could have done better.(the founders和give之间是被动关系)
如果这些创始人受到更多关注,他们本可以做得更好。
2.动词-ing形式和-ed形式在句子中作状语,可以表示时间、原因、条件、伴随、让步等。
(1)作时间状语,相当于时间状语从句,有时可以在前面加一个表时间的连词,如when,while等。
Hearing the news,they immediately took action to stop the study.
=When they heard the news,they immediately took action to stop the study.
听到这个消息后,他们立即采取行动阻止了这项研究。
Asked (=When he was asked) why he looked so bothered,he lowered his head.当他被问到为什么他看上去如此担心时,他低下了头。
(2)作原因状语,相当于原因状语从句。
Being poor,he couldn’t afford a big house in that region.
=As he was poor,he couldn’t afford a big house in that region.
因为穷,他在那个地区买不起一所大房子。
Blamed (=Because he was blamed) by his boss,he decided to change his job.
因为被老板责备了,他决定换工作。
(3)作条件状语,相当于条件状语从句。
Using your head,you are likely to find a nice way to overcome the difficulty.
=If you use your head,you are likely to find a nice way to overcome the difficulty.
动动脑筋,你很可能找到一个好的方法来克服困难。
Grown (=If these seeds are grown) in rich soil,these seeds can grow fast.
如果被种在肥沃的土壤里,这些种子能长得很快。
(4)作伴随状语,相当于and连接的并列句。
He walked down the river,thinking about the current problems.
=He walked down the river and thought about the current problems.
他沿着河流一边走,一边考虑着当前的问题。
The organiser entered the hall,(and he was) followed by a group of volunteers.
组织者进入了大厅,后面跟着一群志愿者。
(5)作让步状语,相当于让步状语从句。
Liking the car too much,I have no enough money to buy it.
=Although/Though/While I like the car too much,I have no enough money to buy it.
虽然我非常喜欢这辆车,但是我没有足够的钱买它。
Offered (=Although/Though/While he was offered) such a nice job,Tom didn’t feel contented at all.
虽然被提供了那么好的工作,但汤姆一点儿也不感到满足。
语法拓展:
1.动词-ing形式作结果状语,是表示随着谓语动作的发生而产生的自然结果,前面有时候可以加thus。不定式作结果状语时常表示出乎意料的结果,前面常加only。试比较:
The glass fell off the table,breaking into pieces.
杯子从桌子上掉下来,摔成了碎片。
I hurried to the playground,only to find that the bricks had been removed.
我匆忙赶到操场,却发现那些砖已经被搬走了。
2.having done作状语,强调动作发生在谓语动词的动作之前。
Having lived in Beijing for many years,he knows the city well.
因为在北京住了很多年,他对这座城市很熟悉。
注意:动词-ing形式作状语时,其逻辑主语必须与句子的主语一致。如果它们有自己的独立主语,则要用独立主格结构:当逻辑主语与其后的动词是主谓关系时,用动词-ing 形式;当逻辑主语与其后的动词是动宾关系时,用动词-ed 形式。
Carrying a large and heavy box,she tripped on a step and fell.(√)
Carrying a large and heavy box,her foot tripped on a step and fell.(×)
Time permitting,we can complete the project.
如果时间允许,我们就能完成这个项目。(逻辑主语Time与 permit之间存在主谓关系,独立主格结构作条件状语)
All the work done,they decided to treat themselves to a movie.
所有的工作都做完了,他们决定去看一场电影犒劳自己。(逻辑主语All the work与do之间存在动宾关系,独立主格结构作原因或时间状语)
二、动词-ing形式和-ed形式作定语
动词-ing形式作定语多表示主动或正在进行,也可指事物的用途,与它所修饰的词往往构成逻辑上的主动关系;动词-ed形式作定语多表示被动或完成,与它所修饰的词构成逻辑上的被动关系。单个的动词-ing形式或-ed形式作定语往往前置,动词-ing或-ed短语往往后置。
The young man working in that institute is my brother.(主动)
那个在研究院工作的年轻人是我的哥哥。
No one is allowed to speak aloud in the reading room.(用途)
阅览室里不准大声说话。
China is a developing country,where most people are leading a contented life.(进行)
中国是一个发展中国家,这里的大部分人都过着满意的生活。
The retired man is very interested in recycling these materials.(完成)
那个退休的人对回收利用这些材料非常感兴趣。
Who were the so-called guests invited to your flat last night?(被动)
昨晚被邀请到你公寓的那些所谓的客人是谁呀?
The injured were not bothered to walk in the yard;they preferred to lie in bed.(被动)
这些伤者懒得在院子里散步,他们更愿意躺在床上。
语法拓展:
1.不及物动词的过去分词作定语不表示被动,而表示完成,如:
a retired worker=a worker that has retired一名退休工人
the fallen leaves=the leaves that have fallen落叶
a developed country=a country which has developed一个发达国家
2.过去分词(done)、现在分词的被动语态(being done)与动词不定式的被动语态(to be done)作定语的区别
意义
形式
语态
时态
done
被动
完成
being done
被动
进行
to be done
被动
尚未发生
The building built last year is a new institute for that university.
去年建造的大楼是那所大学的一个新研究院。
The building being built now is a new institute for that university.
现在正在建造的大楼是那所大学的一个新研究院。
The building to be built next month is a new institute for that university.
下个月将要建造的大楼是那所大学的一个新研究院。
三、动词-ing形式和-ed形式作宾语补足语
作宾语补足语时,动词-ing形式表示正在进行的主动意义,动词-ed形式则表示已经完成的被动意义。
-ing形式
表示主动,动作正在进行,宾语是动词-ing形式所表示动作的执行者。
I heard her singing an English song when I passed by her room yesterday.
昨天我经过她的房间时,听到她正在唱一首英文歌曲。
-ed形式
表示被动,动作已完成,宾语是动词-ed形式所表示动作的承受者。
I heard the English song sung many times.
我多次听到有人唱这首英文歌。
具体用法如下:
1.位于感官动词,如see,hear,feel,watch,find,notice等后。
We saw the smog filling the whole city in that winter.
那个冬天,我们看到雾霾笼罩了整座城市。
When I found him struggling for a chance to go abroad,I felt a little surprised.

当她听说丈夫感染了致命疾病时,她非常担心他。
2.位于使役动词,如make,have,get,keep,leave等后。

这位年轻的指挥有些害羞,让他开口讲话是很难的。
He rushed out of the house,leaving his little son crying.

3.用于with复合结构中。
With so many people looking at her,the young performer felt nervous.
这么多人看着她,这位年轻的表演者感到很紧张。
With all the problems settled,he felt relieved.
所有问题都解决了,他感到如释重负。
注意:make后的宾语补足语一般不用现在分词表主动,而只用过去分词表被动。
He raised his voice to make himself heard.
他提高了嗓门,以便让别人听到他的声音。
四、动词-ing形式和-ed形式作表语
1.作表语的动词-ing形式包括现在分词和动名词。现在分词作表语往往具有形容词的性质,说明主语的性质、特征等;动名词作表语多表示抽象或习惯性的动作,一般说明主语的内容。
The news that so many accidents occurred last week was worrying.
上周发生了那么多事故,这消息令人担忧。
My hobby is collecting all kinds of posters on the wall.
我的爱好是收集墙上的各种海报。
2.动词-ed形式作表语,主要表示主语的心理感觉或所处的状态,含有被动的意义。
(1)过去分词作表语,多表示主语所处的状态或所具备的特征,多位于系动词之后,这些系动词有be,remain,feel,seem,look,become等。
When the organiser left the meeting room,some members remained seated there.
当组织者离开会议室时,一些成员还坐在那里。

Ⅲ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
Sam Trull has worked with wildlife for almost 20 years,but she first found her soft spot for sloths(树懒) in 2013 after moving to Costa Rica to work for a small wildlife recovery center called Kids Saving the Rainforest.On arriving there,she took a liking to a two-week-old orphaned(孤儿的) sloth named Kermie.Sloths hug each other for both safety and comfort,so Trull cared for him with tender love,meals,and hugs.Soon other baby sloths were brought in.It was then that she realized that helping the creatures survive was her true calling.
When the sloths were grown and healthy enough to depart,Trull and her team built a 19-foot-cubed cage near the recovery center and left the door open,so the four-legged friends could come and go freely.They spent enough time eating and exploring in the wild so that they could abandon the cage for good.Trull performed it successfully with several sloths who are now living healthily in the jungle.Their movements are tracked thanks to the collars they wear.
Keeping sloths wild and free is a complicated and expensive process.To make it more effective,Trull co-founded the Sloth Institute in 2014.In addition to the education program and the research into sloths,the institute also cooperates with other institutes to better learn how to prepare orphaned sloths brought to the institute for eventual re-entry into the rainforest.The institute is now going smoothly.
Trull published her new book called Slothlove,where she documented the sloths she had saved via photographs.She explained,“A lot of people don’t know getting hit by cars and getting caught in electric wires are particularly dangerous to sloths.People just think they’re adorable and take selfies with them,unaware that the sloth is stressed and upset.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了野生动物保护主义者萨姆·特鲁尔来到哥斯达黎加致力于树懒保护工作的感人事迹。
1.What can we learn about Trull shortly after she got to Costa Rica?
A.She helped kids to recover.
B.She cared for sloths for comfort.
C.She was at a loss how to cure Kermie.
D.She decided to work with sloths forever.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句可知,特鲁尔来到哥斯达黎加不久,就意识到她的使命是帮助树懒存活下去,即决定要永远从事帮助树懒的工作。故选D。
2.Why did Trull and her team build the cage for the sloths?
A.To limit their movements.
B.To make them recover quickly.
C.To train them to adapt to the wild.
D.To reunite them with their mothers.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段前三句可知,当树懒长大并健康到可以离开时,他们建造笼子,并且让门开着,这样树懒们就可以来去自由了。它们花了足够的时间在野外进食和探索,这样一来它们就可以永远不再需要笼子。因此,他们打造这个笼子是为了训练树懒适应野外生活。故选C。
3.What can be inferred about the Sloth Institute?
A.It is now open to tourists.
B.It will mainly educate the public.
C.It will let go more hand-raised sloths.
D.It is largely sponsored by other institutes.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段第三句可知,除了教育计划和树懒研究以外,该研究所还与其他研究所合作,以便更好地了解如何为来到研究所的孤儿树懒做好准备,让它们最终能重返雨林。所以树懒研究所会放生更多亲手抚养的树懒。故选C。
4.Why does the author mention Trull’s words in the last paragraph?
A.To stress her talent for photography.
B.To describe people’s love for sloths.
C.To introduce the popularity of her book.
D.To tell the reason for publishing her book.

解析 推理判断题。文章末尾,特鲁尔说:“许多人不知道,对树懒来说,被汽车撞到和被电线困住尤为危险。人们只是觉得它们很可爱,然后和它们自拍,却没有意识到树懒所承受的压力和不安。”这与出版《树懒之爱》构成因果关系,即作者引用特鲁尔的话是为了解释出版这本书的理由。故选D。
