如题所述

Seeing is believing.眼见为实。(主语)
Another goal was ending the chaos in the country. 另一个目标是结束国家的混乱状态。(表语)
What he got in his mind was walking all the way to town.他心中的想的办法是一路步行进城。(表语)

§10由于动名词是动词的一种形式,因此动名词也具有动词的一些特征。动名词可以带直接宾语;可以被副词修饰。例如:

Meeting you has been a great pleasure.见到你是件很快乐的事。(you是动名词meeting的宾语)

It is a waste of time watching TV all day.整天看电视是浪费时间。

I am thinking of going to the industrial exhibition this afternoon. 我想下午去看工业展览。

5.下列动词短语中的“to”是介词,不是不定式的符号,因此后面要接动名词或名词。accommodate oneself to 使……适应于,be accustomed to(accustom oneself to)习惯于(使……习惯于),be addicted to 沉湎于,admit to承认, be agreeable to欣然同意,confess to承认,confine oneself to使局限于,contribute to有助于,devote…to 把……奉献给……,be devoted to 献身于,专心于,be equal to能胜任,fall to 着手,have no (have an)objection to不反对,(反对),object to 反对,look forward to盼望,be opposed to反对,pay attention to 注意,lend oneself to帮助,prefer doing something to doing something宁愿……而不……,see to注意,take to开始从事于,when it comes to 谈到,至于,就……而论,be used to 习惯于等等。

§ 12动名词的完成式与被动形式
1.动名词的一般形式通常表示一般性动作(即不是明确地在过去、现在或将来发生的动作)或者是与谓语所表示的动作同时发生的动作。例如:
I hate going out in such weather.我讨厌这种天气出门。
He put off making a decision. 他拖延时间,不做决定。
2.动名词的完成式表示一个动作完成状况,通常发生在谓语动词的动作之前。例如:
I am proud of having written such a good novel.我写了一本这样好的小说,感到很骄傲。
You should have apologized for not having kept your promise.你没有遵守诺言本来应该向我表示歉意。
I remember having seen this film before. 我记得以前看过这部电影。
I have failed again. I regret not having taken his advice. 我又失败了。我后悔没有听他的劝告。
Do you remember having ever promised me that? 你记得曾经答应过我这件事吗?
【注意】
1.在实际应用中,虽然动作是在谓语所表示的动作之前发生的,但我们可以用动名词的一般式。例如:
Excuse me for coming late. 原谅我来晚了。
On arriving home, he called me. 他一到家,就给我打电话了。
Thank you for attending the meeting instead of me.谢谢你替我去参加了会议。
2.如果一个动名词逻辑上的主语所表示的是这个动作的承受者时,这个动名词一般来说要用被动形式。例如:
You can't go out without being allowed. 没有人批准你不能出去。
You can't eat anything before being operated on. 在动手术之前你不能吃东西。
This math problem is far from being worked out. 这道数学难题没有解出来。
Did you mind being punished by the teacher? 你受到老师的惩罚不介意吗?
She was furious at being denied admittance. 不让她去她很生气。
§13使用动名词应注意的几个问题
1.动名词的复合结构:如果一个动名词或动名词短语前用一个物主代词或名词的所有格(在口语中可以用宾格代词)来表示动名词的逻辑主语,这种结构被称为动名词的复合结构,动名词的复合结构具有以下句法功能:主语、宾语、表语等。例如:
It is no use your telling me not to worry. 你告诉我别担心是没有用的。(主语)
Your being right doesn't necessarily mean my being wrong. 你的正确未必就意味着我的错误。(主语或宾语)
The firm have deferred my going on holiday until next month. 商行已经把我的休假时间推迟到下个月。(宾语)
What's troubling me is your not having enough money.使我烦恼的是你没有足够的钱。(表语)
What made the teacher angry was Lipin's making much noise. 使教师生气的是李平的吵闹。(表语)
He laughed at my brother and me liking rice pudding.他嘲笑我的兄弟和我喜欢大米布丁。(用宾格代词,作介词的宾语)
There is no need for that being done.做那件事没有必要。
2.动名词做主语时,谓语动词一律用单数形式。例如:
Their coming to help was a great encouragement to us.他们来支援对我们是很大的鼓舞。
Seeing is believing. 眼见为实。
3.当动名词作宾语而又带有自己的补足语(形容词或名词)时,要用it代表动名词,并将它放到补足语之后。例如:
I found it no use arguing with you.我觉得与你辩论是徒劳无益的。
I don't think it worthwhile buying such a dictionary. 我认为这样的词典不值得一买。
Do you consider it any good trying again? 你觉得再试一试会有好处吗?
【注意】能够用于这一句型常见的动词有:consider, find, think等。能用于这一句型常见的形容词和名词有:any good, no use, no good, worthwhile, useless, senseless, dangerous等。
4.下列短语中的介词常常省略,因此后面要接动名词。
1)Spend time(money) (in) 花时间(钱)(干某事),
2)be busy (in) 忙于(干某事)
3)lose no time (in) 不失时机(干某事)
4)There is no point (in)(干某事)毫无意义
5)waste time (in) 浪费时间(干某事)
6)keep on 继续(干某事)
7)have no difficulty (in) (干某事)没有困难
8)have fun (in) (干某事)有趣
9)have (no)trouble (in) (干某事)有(没有)困难
10) have headaches (in) (干某事) 头痛
11) end up (by) (以干某事)告终
12) take turns (at) 轮流 (干某事)
13) bother (about)(因干某事)烦恼
14) have a hard time (in)(因干某事)吃苦
15) be through (with) 完成
16) What's the use (of ) …(干某事)有什么用?
例如:
You needn't bother (about) coming up.你不必费心来跑一趟。
Let's take turns (at )doing it. 让我们轮流干吧!
5.动名词可以和介词构成短语,作定语用。能够被这种定语修饰的名词有:method of , way of, surprise at, art of, opportunity of, habit of, hope of, process of, possibility of , importance of, necessity of, intention of , means of , right of, experience of, reason for等。例如:
Do you have any experience in running schools? 你有管理学校的经验吗?
What's your reason for coming late? 你晚来是什么原因?
You must take this opportunity of taking part in the Asian Games. 你一定要抓住参加亚运会这次机会。
Do you approve of my way of dealing with this matter? 你赞成我处理这件事的方法吗?
6.如果一个动名词具有很多名词的特点:可以有自己的冠词,有自己的定语,在某种情况下有复数形式;并且也失去了许多动词的特点:没有完成式和被动式,没有自己的状语和宾语,这样的动名词被称为名词化的动名词。如果要表示它逻辑上的宾语,通常在这个名词化的动名词后加上一个介词of , 再加逻辑宾语。例如:
You should have given the classroom a good cleaning. 你本来应该把教室好好打扫一下。(有自己的冠词)
It was Tom who did the recording. 是汤姆录的音。(有自己的冠词)
This work needs careful planning.这工作需要周密的计划。(有自己的定语)
Did you paid any attention to their comings and goings? 你对他们的来踪去迹注意到了吗?(有复数形式)
Most of the digging , moving and compressing of earth was done by machines. 挖土、运土和打夯工作大部分用机器进行。(有自己的逻辑宾语)
7.动名词作表语与不定式作表语的比较:动名词主要说明行为本身,用来表示抽象、泛指的动作,并不明确表示动作发生的时间,而不定式则表示某次具体的,尚未发生的将来动作。例如:
My job is teaching English. 我的工作是教英语。(泛指的行为,表示职业)
My job is to teach them to read the text.我的工作是教会他们读课文。(表示一次具体的任务)
Another error they had made was to think they could beat their opponents.他们所犯的另一个错误,就是认为可能击败对手。(不定式作表语表示已经发生的动作)
主语如果是动名词,则表语也应用动名词,不能用不定式。主语如果是不定式,表语也应用不定式,不能用动名词。例如:
Seeing is believing.=To see is to believe. 眼见为实。(不能说:Seeing is to believe. To see is believing.)
如果动作十分抽象,已经失去动词性能而接近名词,则用动名词。例如:
My hobby is gardening. 园艺是我的爱好。
不说:My hobby is to garden.
My favorite winter sport is skating. 我最爱好的冬季运动是滑冰。(不说:My favorite winter sport is to skate.)
Working with you is a pleasure. 和你一起工作是一种 乐趣。(主语)
Seeing is believing.眼见为实。(主语)
Another goal was ending the chaos in the country. 另一个目标是结束国家的混乱状态。(表语)
What he got in his mind was walking all the way to town.他心中的想的办法是一路步行进城。(表语)
My job is teaching.我的工作是教学。(表语)
To keep money that you have found is stealing.私藏拾到的钱等于偷窃。(表语)
Her shoes wants mending. 她的鞋该修理了。(宾语)
I have finished writing this book.我已经写完这本书了。(宾语)
She left without saying good-bye to us.她没有向我们告别就走了。(介词宾语)
My brother is fond of skating. 我弟弟喜欢滑冰。(介词宾语)
Thank you for giving me some help. 谢谢你给我些帮助。(介词宾语)
§10由于动名词是动词的一种形式,因此动名词也具有动词的一些特征。动名词可以带直接宾语;可以被副词修饰。例如:
My hobby is collecting stamps. 我的爱好是集邮。(stamps是动名词collecting的宾语)
Meeting you has been a great pleasure.见到你是件很快乐的事。(you是动名词meeting的宾语)
I like driving fast. 我喜欢开快车。(副词fast修饰动名词driving)
动名词还有几种形式:
主动形式
被动形式
一般式
doing
being done
完成式
Having done
Having been done

The work assigned to us is bringing the chairs downstairs.分配给我们的工作是把椅子带下楼来。(表示主语的内容)
Her job is raising pigs. 她的工作是养猪。(表示主语的内容)
The film was exciting. 这部电影激动人心。(表示主语的特征)

5.下列动词短语中的“to”是介词,不是不定式的符号,因此后面要接动名词或名词。accommodate oneself to 使……适应于,be accustomed to(accustom oneself to)习惯于(使……习惯于),be addicted to 沉湎于,admit to承认, be agreeable to欣然同意,confess to承认,confine oneself to使局限于,contribute to有助于,devote…to 把……奉献给……,be devoted to 献身于,专心于,be equal to能胜任,fall to 着手,have no (have an)objection to不反对,(反对),object to 反对,look forward to盼望,be opposed to反对,pay attention to 注意,lend oneself to帮助,prefer doing something to doing something宁愿……而不……,see to注意,take to开始从事于,when it comes to 谈到,至于,就……而论,be used to 习惯于等等。
例如:
When it comes to writing short essays, you had better ask his advice. 谈到写短篇文章,你最好请教他。
I don't feel equal to doing the work. 我感到不能胜任这工作。
I have got used to working on the night shift. 我上夜班已经习惯了。
I have been looking forward to writing a novel by myself.我一起盼望自己写一本小说。
She refused to admit to breaking the window.她拒绝承认打破窗子。
6.动名词也可以和以下短语连用,作状语。常见的短语有:apart from, for fear of, in case of, with a view to, with the object of, in the event of等等。例如:
We should stay at home today instead of going to school. 今天我们应该呆在家里而应去上学。
He did such a thing with the object of improving his oral English. 他这样做完全是为了提高英语口语水平。
§ 12动名词的完成式与被动形式
1.动名词的一般形式通常表示一般性动作(即不是明确地在过去、现在或将来发生的动作)或者是与谓语所表示的动作同时发生的动作。例如:
I hate going out in such weather.我讨厌这种天气出门。
He put off making a decision. 他拖延时间,不做决定。
2.动名词的完成式表示一个动作完成状况,通常发生在谓语动词的动作之前。例如:
I am proud of having written such a good novel.我写了一本这样好的小说,感到很骄傲。
You should have apologized for not having kept your promise.你没有遵守诺言本来应该向我表示歉意。
I remember having seen this film before. 我记得以前看过这部电影。
I have failed again. I regret not having taken his advice. 我又失败了。我后悔没有听他的劝告。
Do you remember having ever promised me that? 你记得曾经答应过我这件事吗?
【注意】
1.在实际应用中,虽然动作是在谓语所表示的动作之前发生的,但我们可以用动名词的一般式。例如:
Excuse me for coming late. 原谅我来晚了。
On arriving home, he called me. 他一到家,就给我打电话了。
Thank you for attending the meeting instead of me.谢谢你替我去参加了会议。
2.如果一个动名词逻辑上的主语所表示的是这个动作的承受者时,这个动名词一般来说要用被动形式。例如:
You can't go out without being allowed. 没有人批准你不能出去。
You can't eat anything before being operated on. 在动手术之前你不能吃东西。
This math problem is far from being worked out. 这道数学难题没有解出来。
Did you mind being punished by the teacher? 你受到老师的惩罚不介意吗?
She was furious at being denied admittance. 不让她去她很生气。
§13使用动名词应注意的几个问题
1.动名词的复合结构:如果一个动名词或动名词短语前用一个物主代词或名词的所有格(在口语中可以用宾格代词)来表示动名词的逻辑主语,这种结构被称为动名词的复合结构,动名词的复合结构具有以下句法功能:主语、宾语、表语等。例如:
It is no use your telling me not to worry. 你告诉我别担心是没有用的。(主语)
Your being right doesn't necessarily mean my being wrong. 你的正确未必就意味着我的错误。(主语或宾语)
The firm have deferred my going on holiday until next month. 商行已经把我的休假时间推迟到下个月。(宾语)
What's troubling me is your not having enough money.使我烦恼的是你没有足够的钱。(表语)
What made the teacher angry was Lipin's making much noise. 使教师生气的是李平的吵闹。(表语)
He laughed at my brother and me liking rice pudding.他嘲笑我的兄弟和我喜欢大米布丁。(用宾格代词,作介词的宾语)
There is no need for that being done.做那件事没有必要。
2.动名词做主语时,谓语动词一律用单数形式。例如:
Their coming to help was a great encouragement to us.他们来支援对我们是很大的鼓舞。
Seeing is believing. 眼见为实。
3.当动名词作宾语而又带有自己的补足语(形容词或名词)时,要用it代表动名词,并将它放到补足语之后。例如:
I found it no use arguing with you.我觉得与你辩论是徒劳无益的。
I don't think it worthwhile buying such a dictionary. 我认为这样的词典不值得一买。
Do you consider it any good trying again? 你觉得再试一试会有好处吗?
【注意】能够用于这一句型常见的动词有:consider, find, think等。能用于这一句型常见的形容词和名词有:any good, no use, no good, worthwhile, useless, senseless, dangerous等。
4.下列短语中的介词常常省略,因此后面要接动名词。
1)Spend time(money) (in) 花时间(钱)(干某事),
2)be busy (in) 忙于(干某事)
3)lose no time (in) 不失时机(干某事)
4)There is no point (in)(干某事)毫无意义
5)waste time (in) 浪费时间(干某事)
6)keep on 继续(干某事)
7)have no difficulty (in) (干某事)没有困难
8)have fun (in) (干某事)有趣
9)have (no)trouble (in) (干某事)有(没有)困难
10) have headaches (in) (干某事) 头痛
11) end up (by) (以干某事)告终
12) take turns (at) 轮流 (干某事)
13) bother (about)(因干某事)烦恼
14) have a hard time (in)(因干某事)吃苦
15) be through (with) 完成
16) What's the use (of ) …(干某事)有什么用?
例如:
You needn't bother (about) coming up.你不必费心来跑一趟。
Let's take turns (at )doing it. 让我们轮流干吧!
5.动名词可以和介词构成短语,作定语用。能够被这种定语修饰的名词有:method of , way of, surprise at, art of, opportunity of, habit of, hope of, process of, possibility of , importance of, necessity of, intention of , means of , right of, experience of, reason for等。例如:
Do you have any experience in running schools? 你有管理学校的经验吗?
What's your reason for coming late? 你晚来是什么原因?
You must take this opportunity of taking part in the Asian Games. 你一定要抓住参加亚运会这次机会。
Do you approve of my way of dealing with this matter? 你赞成我处理这件事的方法吗?
6.如果一个动名词具有很多名词的特点:可以有自己的冠词,有自己的定语,在某种情况下有复数形式;并且也失去了许多动词的特点:没有完成式和被动式,没有自己的状语和宾语,这样的动名词被称为名词化的动名词。如果要表示它逻辑上的宾语,通常在这个名词化的动名词后加上一个介词of , 再加逻辑宾语。例如:
You should have given the classroom a good cleaning. 你本来应该把教室好好打扫一下。(有自己的冠词)
It was Tom who did the recording. 是汤姆录的音。(有自己的冠词)
This work needs careful planning.这工作需要周密的计划。(有自己的定语)
Did you paid any attention to their comings and goings? 你对他们的来踪去迹注意到了吗?(有复数形式)
Most of the digging , moving and compressing of earth was done by machines. 挖土、运土和打夯工作大部分用机器进行。(有自己的逻辑宾语)
7.动名词作表语与不定式作表语的比较:动名词主要说明行为本身,用来表示抽象、泛指的动作,并不明确表示动作发生的时间,而不定式则表示某次具体的,尚未发生的将来动作。例如:
My job is teaching English. 我的工作是教英语。(泛指的行为,表示职业)
My job is to teach them to read the text.我的工作是教会他们读课文。(表示一次具体的任务)
Another error they had made was to think they could beat their opponents.他们所犯的另一个错误,就是认为可能击败对手。(不定式作表语表示已经发生的动作)
主语如果是动名词,则表语也应用动名词,不能用不定式。主语如果是不定式,表语也应用不定式,不能用动名词。例如:
Seeing is believing.=To see is to believe. 眼见为实。(不能说:Seeing is to believe. To see is believing.)
如果动作十分抽象,已经失去动词性能而接近名词,则用动名词。例如:
My hobby is gardening. 园艺是我的爱好。
不说:My hobby is to garden.
My favorite winter sport is skating. 我最爱好的冬季运动是滑冰。(不说:My favorite winter sport is to skate.)

现在分词和动名词的区别
动名词和现在分词:都称作动状词(Verbal),即由动词变化而来,仍然具有动词的性质与原义,但不能作动词使用的词。动名词与现在分词的区别主要是:-ing形式在句中作定语,它可能是现在分词,也可能是动名词。
区别方法是:
l 动名词作定语时:说明被修饰的名词的用途(可以用"use for +动名词"这个结构代替),
l 它和所修饰的名词在逻辑上没有主谓关系;
l 现在分词作定语时:表示它所修饰的名词的行为,和它所修饰的名词在逻辑上有主谓关系
(可以扩展为定语从句);
还有一种区别方法是:
如果ing形式相当于一个名词,可以与主语交换位置,它就是动名词。
如果-ing形式相当于形容词,不能与主语交换位置,它就是现在分词。
a sleeping car = a car used for sleeping 一节卧车车厢(sleeping此处为动名词 )
a sleeping child =a child who is sleeping 一个睡着的孩子 (sleeping此处为现在分词)
2.动名词具有名词的性质:
(1)可以和名词一样有冠词或this、some等形容词;
A knocking at the door was heard
(2)可以和名词一样有所有格、复数形式;
He enjoys reading forreading’s sake, not for scholarship.
He is so busy that I can’t keep track of all his comings and goings.
(3)可以带有所有格已表明动作者。
Please excuse my coming late.
3. “动名词+名词”和“现在分词+名词”的读音不同,
“动名词+名词”的重音在“动名词”上(a ‘sleepingsuit),
“现在分词+名词”的重音在“名词”上(a sleeping ‘child)。
4. 动名词用法的特殊情况
① No+动名词——用于简短的禁令或禁律
No smoking=Don't do=Don't smoke.
② There is no+-ing(…是不可能的)= It is impossible to ~ = No one can ~ (or We cannot ~)
There is no tellingwhen lasting peace will come.
(谁也不知道永久的和平何时到来)
③ Never (or not) … without + -ing (每次…都…)= whenever
He never comes withoutbringing some present.
④ It goes without saying that (…是不用说的)= It isneedless to say that
It goes withoutsaying that no animal can live without breathing.
⑤ Do+动名词(做需要若干时间或一再重复的事情)——
动名词之前都由the、所有 格或some/a little/ much/ a lot of 之类的形容词。
Do you do muchfishing?
⑥ On (or upon) +动名词(当…,一…就…)=when (or as soonas) +S. + V.
⑦ Of one’s own +动名词(自己…的)=-ed by oneself
He showed me apicture of his own painting.
⑧ Make a point of +动名词(必定,重视)= make it apoint to ~
He makes a point ofcalling on me on New Year’s Day.
⑨ Be on (or upon) the point of +动名词(正要)= be justabout to ~
5. 如果动名词形式在句中充当状语和补语,那么它一定是现在分词。
如果-ing形式在句中充当主语、宾语、同位语,那么它一定是动名词。本回答被网友采纳

初中英语语法 动名词和现在分词的区分
第3个回答 2006-02-12
V-ing 的非谓语动词用法: 动名词和现在分词的区别
V-ing 在英语中可以看作是动名词和现在分词,它们都可以用作非谓语动词,在句中可以充当一定的句子成分。现将其可以充当的句子成分
列表对照如下:
一、V-ing作动名词时具有名词的特征,因而在句中用作主语、表语、宾语、定语,有时它可以有自己的逻辑主语,也可以有时态和语态形式。如:
1. 作主语、表语
动名词作主语和表语表示泛指。如:
Tom's not having finished his homework made his teacher angry. 汤姆没有完成作业使老师很生.(主语)
Her job is keeping the offices clean. 她的工作是保持办公室清洁。(表语)
2. 作宾语
动名词常跟在某些动词如enjoy, finish, mind, can't help(禁不住), suggest(建议), advise, consider(考虑), practise, admit, imagine 等以及含介词的短语动词insist on, stop...from, look forward to, pay attention to等后面作宾语。如:
Do you mind my smoking here? 你介意我在这儿吸烟吗?
3. 作定语
动名词作定语时表示被修饰词的用途和作用。如:
Don't forget to take a shopping basket with you. 别忘了带上购物篮子。
二、V-ing作现在分词充当非谓语动词时,它主要在句中充当定语、表语、宾补、主补及状语。如:
1. 作定语
现在分词作定语时表示该动作正在进行。单个现在分词作定语通常放在被修饰词的前面.现在分词短语作定语则放在被修饰词之后。如:
The rising sun looks very beautiful. 冉冉升起的太阳看上去很美。
若被修饰词与现在分词是被动关系时,须用现在分词的被动式(being done)作定语。如:
The song being broadcast is very popular with the young students. 正在播放的歌曲深受青年学生的欢迎。
现在分词与动名词作定语的区别: 现在分词与所修饰的名词有逻辑上的主谓关系,而动名词作定语表示作用与用途。如:
Let sleeping dogs lie. 别招惹麻烦。(现在分词。相当于定语从句 which are sleeping)
I think some sleeping pills may help you. 我想安眠药可以助你入睡。(动名词.表示用途,相当于pills for sleeping)
2. 作表语
现在分词作表语表示主语的性质,这时通常可以看作形容词,可以用very, so或much等修饰。如:
The news that our team had been beaten by them in the match was very surprising. 我们队在比赛中被他们打败的消息让人感到很意外。
The sound we heard last night was so frightening. 我们昨晚听到的声音令人恐怖。
现在分词作表语与现在分词用于进行时态表达的意义是不同的.作表语,说明主语具备的性质,描述的是一种状态;而与助动词be构成现在进行时态和过去进行时态则强调动作正在发生,侧重对动作的描述。试比较:
Mr. Zhang is encouraging his students to study English thoroughly. 张老师在鼓励学生们学好英语.
The book is very interesting. 这本书很有趣。
3. 作宾语补足语
动词的现在分词作宾补表明宾语正在进行的动作。可以带现在分词作宾补的动词有find, see, hear, watch, have, get, catch, keep, leave等。如:
When I came in, I found him lying in bed. 我进来时发现他躺在床上。
4. 作状语
现在分词作状语可以表示伴随、原因、条件、结果等。如:
All the students sat in the classroom, waiting for their new teacher to come. 所有的学生都坐在教室里等待新老师的到来。 (伴随)
Not having received his reply, she decided to write a second letter. (由于)没有收到他的回信,她决定再写一封。 (原因)
Seeing from the top of the hill, you can find the city more beautiful. (如果)从小山顶上看,你会发现这座城市更美丽。(条件)
My parents went to a birthday party yesterday, leaving me alone at home. 昨天我父母去参加一个生日舞会,留下我一个人在家。(结果)
值得注意的是,现在分词作状语时如果句中主语不是自己的逻辑主语,也可以带自己的主语, 构成独立主格结构. 此外, 现在分词也可以用在with的复合结构中表示其逻辑主语是分词动作的发出者。如:
Weather permitting, we will go out for a picnic tomorrow. 如果明天天气允许的话,我们将去野餐。(独立主格结构)
With a guide leading the way, we found the village easily. 由于有向导引路,我们轻易就找到了那个村庄。(含with的复合结构作状语)
