非謂語動詞
非謂語動詞是高中語法的重點,也是難點,學生常常對此感到頭疼。其實只要理解并掌握非謂語動詞各種形式的特點,做起題來會很輕松。我們在熟悉知道了非謂語動詞形式后,做題時可分四步分析。
一、分析句子結構
1. ________many times , but he still couldn’t understand it .
2. ________many times , he still couldn’t understand it .
A. Having been told . B. He was told C. Told D. Though he had been told
3. ________to the left , you’ll find the post office . 4. If you ________to the left , you’ll find the post office . 5. ________to the left , and you’ll find the post office .
A. Turning B. To turn C. Turn D. Turned
二、分析邏輯主語
確定要選非謂語動詞之后,第二步要分析其邏輯主語。非謂語動詞雖不能作謂語,但仍具有動詞特點,其邏輯上的動作執行者就叫做邏輯主語。非謂語動詞作狀語時,其邏輯主語須和句子的真正主語一致。若不一致,則須加上自己的邏輯主語。
1. ________no buses , we have to walk home .
A. There being B. It were C. There were D. It being
2. ______Sunday I shall have a quiet day at home .
分析:句1. 表示“沒有公共汽車”,應用“there be”結構,即邏輯主語是“there”,故選A 。句2. 同理選D。
三、分析語態
分析語態就是在確定邏輯主語之后,分析非謂語動詞和邏輯主語在搭配使用時是主動還是被動關系。
1. ______from space , the earth looks blue .
2.______from space , we can see the earth is blue .
A. Seen B. Seeing C. To see D.See
這兩個題選項中的非謂語動詞都沒有加自己的邏輯主語,因此其邏輯主語就是句子的主語。
分析:句1. “地球”被“看起來”,表被動,故選A,用過去分詞表被動。句2. 我們“主動看……”即表主動,故選B。
3. The dirty clothes ______ , the girl hung them up outside .
4. ______ the dirty clothes ,the girl hung them up outside . A. was washed B. washed C.were washed D.having washed
分析:句3. 前面應用非謂語動詞作句子的狀語,邏輯主語是“the dirty clothes”,和動詞搭配表示“衣服被洗”,故選B。
句4. 邏輯主語為句子的主語“the girl”,表示“女孩洗衣服”,為主動關系,故選D。
四、分析時態,在選定了主動或被動后,還要考慮動作發生的時間問題,即時態。
1. The building ______now will be a restaurant .
2. The building ______next year will be a restaurant .
3. The building ______last year is a restaurant.
A. having been built B.to be built C.being built D. built
句1中 now 說明大樓正在被修,故用進行式,選C。
句2中next year 說明大樓將在明年被修,故用表將來的不定式,選B。
句3中 last year 說明大樓已被修,但不能選,因為現在分詞的完成式不能作定語,故用過去分詞,選D。
又如:
1. He stood there______for his mother .
2. ______for two hours , he went away .
A. waiting B. to wait C. waited D.Having waited
句1表示“站在那等”,兩個動詞同時發生,故選A作伴隨狀語。
句2表示已經等了兩個小時,發生在謂語動詞“went away ”之前,故用完成式,選D 。
需要注意的是,非謂語動詞的否定也是常考的項目,要認清否定形式,非謂語動詞的否定都應將not 放在前面。
如:
What is the reason for ______there ?
A. not your going B. not your go C. your not going D. you not to go
