语法精讲
现在分词
分词分为现在分词和过去分词两种：现在分词具有主动和
进行的意味，而过去分词具有被动和完成的意味。
1．现在分词的时态分为一般时和完成时，语态有主动语态和
被动语态。其构成形式如下表：
(1)现在分词的主动语态分为一般时和完成时
一般时所表示的动作与谓语动词表示的动作同时发生。完成时所表
示的动作发生在谓语动词所表示的动作之前。
He hurried home，looking behind as he went.他急忙回家，一边走一
边向后看。
Having finished their homework，they went out to play.做完作业后，
他们出去玩。
(2)现在分词的被动语态分为一般式和完成式
一般时表示一个被动的动作正在进行，或与谓语动词表示的动作同
时发生.完成时表示一个被动的动作在谓语动词表示的动作之前发生.
The large building being built will be a library.正在建的大楼将来是
个图书馆。
Having been shown around the labs，we were taken to see the library.
被带着看完实验室后，我们又被带着参观了图书馆。
2. 现在分词的句法功能
(1)现在分词作定语
作定语用的现在分词如果是单个的词，常放在名词的前面；
如果是分词短语，则放在名词的后边。现在分词作定语，表
示所修饰的人或物的动作或目前所处的状态，与所修饰的词
之间是逻辑上的主谓关系。
The boy standing there is a classmate of mine.
站在那边的男孩是我的一个同学。
They built a highway leading to the mountain.
他们修建了一条通向山区的公路。
(2)现在分词作表语
现在分词作表语表示主语所具有的特征，多数情况下被认为
是物化形容词。
The football match we watched was very exciting.我们看过的
那场足球赛激动人心。
This book was especially interesting.这本书特别有趣。
(3)现在分词作宾语补足语
现在分词可用于feel，hear，see，notice，watch，observe，keep，
find，get，have等后作宾语补足语。
I am sorry to have kept you waiting so long.对不起，让你久等了。
Can you hear him singing in the room？你能听到他在房间唱歌吗？
【特别提醒】
make后不能接现在分词作宾补,但可接动词原形或过去分词作宾补.
(4)现在分词作状语
现在分词作状语，可表时间、原因、结果、条件、伴随、方式等。
现在分词和句子的主语存在逻辑上的主谓关系，往往表示比较次要
的动作。
Not knowing her address，we couldn’t get in touch with her.
不知道她的地址，我们没有办法和她取得联系。
Hearing the news，they all jumped with joy.
听到那个消息，他们高兴得跳了起来。
【特别提醒】
当when，while，whenever，once，though，although，
before，until，after等连词引导的状语从句中的主语和主句的
主语一致，且从句为主动语态结构时，从句可用省略形式，
即“连接词＋v.ing”形式。
While reading the newspaper，he heard a strange noise.
(＝While he was reading the newspaper，...)
读报的时候，他听到了一种奇怪的声音。
Waste water from a number of cities is cleaned before flowing
back into rivers.(＝...before waste water flows back into rivers.)
许多城市的污水在流回江河中以前已经被净化过了。
