2019-2020年高二英语动词ing形式(动名词)的形式及用法专题复习

2019-2020年高二英语动词ing形式（动名词）的形式及用法专题复习doing的形式：doing;beingdonedoing做主语，表语和宾语。doing与todo在动词后面做宾语的区别知识总结归纳：（一）动词ing形式起名词作用，在语法中也称做动名词.在句中做主语，宾语，表语和定语。它的基本形式有doing;beingdone。例句：Parkingisdifficultintheshoppingcenterofthecity.MyfavoritejobisteachingEnglish.Hismainhobbyiscollectingstamps.Denyingthiswillbeshuttingone'seyestofact.IsuggestyoushouldpractisespeakingEnglishwheneveryoucan.HearingwhatIsaid,hecouldn'thelplaughing.Didyouseethatcarbeingrepaired?注：todo形式也可以做主语或表语。一般情况下，这两种形式做主语或表语，差别不是很大。但是如果刻意强调某个具体的动作，就用todo形式，而要表示一般性或泛指的动作则用doing形式。例如：Itisdifficulttoparkintheshoppingcenterattheweekend.Mydutyistotakecareofthebabywhilesheisout.（二）在一些动词后面只能接动名词做宾语。后面跟doing做宾语的常见动词有:admit;advise;appreciate;avoid;plete;consider;deny;mention;mind;miss;prevent;delay;enjoy;escape;imagine;postpone;practise;risk;suggest;常见的动名词短语，如:beworthdoing;can'thelpdoing;lookforwardtodoing;goondoing;insistondoing;preferdoingtodoing;bebusydoing;keepondoing;devote…todoing;spend・・・indoing;havedifficultyindoing;haveagoodtimedoing;prevent・・・fromdoingIamlookingforwardtohearingfromyousoon.Hehasdevotedhimselftoprotectingthewildlife.Heistryingtoavoidansweringmyquestion.Theaccusedmandeniedeverhavingmether.Heinsistedonsendingfordoctoratonce.Thefilmiswellworthseeing.Youcan'timaginethedifficultywehadmakingalittlemoney.（三）doing形式的逻辑主语：当强调doing所表达的动作的执行者（逻辑主语）时，需要在doing前面加上物主代词，人称代词宾格，名词所有格或不定代词例句：I'msurprisedatyour/youdoingit.Sheinsistedontheirbothacceptingtheinvitation.Doyoumindmyopeningthewindow?Yourbeingrightdoesn'tnecessarilymeanmybeingwrong.Thechildrenarelookingforwardtospringing.HedisapprovedofthatbeingsaidaboutJane.
