决战2011高考英语专题讲义：非谓语动词在句中用作定语

1、无决战 2011 高考英语专题讲义非谓语动词在句中作定语非谓语动词在句中作定语在英语句子中，不定式 to do，分词 v+ing 和 v+ed 以及动名词 v+ing 是非谓语动词，除不能作谓语外，其他成份都可担当，其中一个成份就是作定语。不定式 to do 在句中作定语置于被修饰名词后，常同该名词构成动宾关系，要是不定式是不及物动词，其后应加上必要的介词。例：I have something to say. (to say something )Ill give you a magazine to read.That is a good company to work for.He is a

2、 pleasant fellow to work with.Would you bring me a bench to sit on?有些名词常接不定式作定语，如：chance ,time ,reason ,way ,effort ,right (权利), movement 等，例：You havent any reason to leave me.You have no right to do such a thing.He succeeded in his effort to overcome his fatal weakness.He put himself out of the way

3、 to help others.We have no time to lose.Thank you for giving me the chance to make the speech.The first ,the last ,the second ,the best 等常与不定式连用作定语。例：He is always the first to come.She would be the last to agree to our plan.You are the second to ask me that question.Ill do my poor best to fix it up.

4、当 to go ,to spare 作“剩下”讲时可作定语。例：He had five minutes to go before time was up.They had only 100 dollars to spare.不定式用在某些句子中作定语相当于一个定语从句，表示动作即将发生。例：There are many difficulties to overcome.= There are many difficulties that will have to be overcome.He has a large family to support.= He has a large fami

5、ly that he must support.现在分词与过去分词作定语现在分词和过去分词在句中都可以作定语，但在语态和时间概念上有区别，在语态上，现在分词表主动，过去分词表被动，在时间上，现在分词表示动作正在进行，而过去分词则表示动作完成。例：无boiling water (主动、进行)boiled water (被动、完成)有时过去分词则表示被动，不表示完成的动作，有时则表示动作的完成，不表示被动的动作。例：the fallen leaves (动作已完成)developed countries (动作已完成)an interested party (被动)单个分词作定语置于被修饰词前。例

6、：China is a developing country.He lit a fire and from it took a burning stick.America is a developed country.有些单个分词（尤其是现在分词）作定语时也可以置于被修饰词之后，特别如一些不定代词 anything ,something ,everything ,nothing 等则应后置。例：the experience gained (获得的经验)for the time being (暂时)for years running ( 一连数年)She found the window ope

7、n and something stolen.There is nothing doing.There is nothing interesting in todays paper.They can see everything happening on the line.Is there anything interesting in the book?分词短语置于被修饰词之后The pen lying on the table belongs to you.The boy making faces is my son.I like songs performed by Mao Aming.

8、其实作定语的分词短语可以扩展为定语从句。如上述三句可改为：The pen which is lying on the table belongs to you.The boy who is making faces is my son.I like songs which was performed by Mao Aming.现在分词作后置定语表示一个（现在或将来）正在进行的动作，或者表示某经常性动作或状态。例：Can you see the star moving in the sky?There is a piano standing in the corner.如果分词所表示的动作在时间

9、上同谓语动词所表示的动作不一致，不能使用现在分词，而应使用定语从句。例：I want to know the man breaking the window. (X)Break 的动作是先发生上例不能用现在分词，应改为定语从句。如：.who broke the window.Do you know anyone having lost money. (X)Do you know anyone who lost money. (V)无因此我们就知道在那种情况下定语从句可以用现在分词代替，即：定语从句动词所表示的时间同主句谓语动词的时间一致时。例：Did you see the man (who

10、was) talking to the headmaster?The hospital which stands /standing across the street was set up last year.(stands 表示一个经常性的状态)过去分词在时间上，表示的动作发生在谓语动词之间，表示与句中谓语动词相应的经常性动作；或表示一个正在进行的动作，用 being +过去分词结构。例：Is this the book written ( which was written) by Henry James?He was then a teacher respected ( who was

11、 respected ) by all his students.The matter being discussed ( which is being discussed ) is of great importance.He was invited to a meeting to be held ( which was to be held ) the next day.动名词作定语动名词单个词作定语时也置于被修饰词前，表示被修饰词的用途、类属等。例；a writing table = a table for writing(动名词)a sleeping child = a child w

12、ho is sleeping （现在分词）a swimming pool = a pool for swimming （动名词）a waiting room = a room for waiting （动名词）drinking water = water for drinking （动名词）No one is allowed to speak aloud in the reading room. （动名词）That is a shop dealing in walking stick. （动名词）The sleeping child was in a sound sleep. （现在分词）Al

13、l bedrooms in this hotel have hot cold running water. (现在分词)从上述看，单个动名词和现在分词都可以作前置定语，但现在分词和被修饰的名词在逻辑上有主谓关系，表示被修饰名词自身发生的动作或行为，而动名词和被修饰的名词不表示这种关系，只表示与被修饰名词的用途、类属等。动名词作介词宾语构成的介词短语可定语。例：He is in the habit of rising early.( of rising 修饰名词 habit )She has a good idea of playing snowball.( of playing 修饰名词 id

14、ea )有些名词有时也可接不定式和其接“介词动名词”在意义上没有区别。例：That is the way of setting the problem.That is the way to settle the problem.这类名词常用的有：time for doing sth.Reason of doing sth.Time to do sth.Reason to do sth.Freedom in doing sth.Chance of doing sth.Freedom to do sth.Chance to do sth.Failure in doing sth.Patience

15、in doing sthFailure to do sth.Patience to do sth.无Choice of doing sth.Opportunity of doing sth.Choice to do sth.Opportunity to do sth.但有些名词和 purpose ,method ,idea ,habit 等后面只能接 of + 动名词，不接不定式，有些名词如 promise ,effort ,desire ,attempt ,ability ,refusal ,determination ,failure 不接 of +动名词，但可以接不定式。例：It is

16、surprising that they should choose this method of passing the evening. (不用method to pass)The old man is in the habit of reading the newspaper at breakfast. (不用habit to do )dont trust his promise to come for a visit. （不用promise of coming ）She had persisted in her refusal to spend Christmas in Bursley

17、 . （不用refusal of spending）But his efforts to get her back were vain. (不用efforts of getting)示例考题 1-What do you think of the middle school?-It is a very good _.A. school to studyB. School to study inC. Studying schoolD. school for children to study解析从本题的答案看并结合提干的要求接上一个名词 school，后在这个名词后面使用不定式作该名词的定语，从答

18、案中看给的不定式 to study，在此是作不及物动词，因此不定式的后面应加上一个介词 in 才合乎题意，所以选。考题Snow was falling when they went along a mountain path _ to the front.A. to leadB. LedC. LeadingD. being led解析据题意提干前有一个名词 path，其后是介词组 to the front ，即要求一个现在分词和 to the front 连成现在分词短语修饰名词 path 作定语，path 名词虽表示物不能使用过去分词，是小路本身延伸到前线的，所以选。考题They set up an _ table in a small temple to operate on the _ soldiers.A. operating ;woundedB. Operated ;woundingC. operated ;/woundedD. operating ;woundi
