动词的ing形式做定语讲解与练习.doc

动词的-ing形式既包括动名词又包括现在分词,在英语中使用极其广泛,同时也
是高考中的重要考点,因此要求每位高中学生对其都应清楚了解并正确运用。
下面就动词的-ing形式在句中做定语总结如下:

动词的-ing形式做定语在句中通常有两个位置,如果是单个的动词的-ing形式做
定语,常放在被修饰词前做前置定语;如果是动词的-ing形式的短语做定语,常放
在被修饰词后做后置定语。如:
1.He is an attacking player.他是一个攻击型的运动员。
2.He asked an embarrassing question.他提了一个令人难堪的问题。
3.A little child learning to walk often falls.学走路的小孩常常跌跤。
4.Do you know the number of people coming to the party?你知道来参加晚会的人数吗?

注意:当-ing形式做后置定语时,可以相当于相应的定语从句。如:
1.A young man writing novels came to speak to us yesterday.
→A young man who writes novels came to speak to us yesterday.
一位写小说的青年昨天来向我们作报告
2.The girl sitting next to me was my cousin.
→The girl who was sitting next to me was my cousin.坐在我旁边的姑娘是我表妹。

-ing形式做定语通常从以下三方面考查,即:
1)说明被修饰词的性质,特征或用途。如:
1.They set up an operating table in a small temple.他们将手术台架设在一座小庙里。
2.He may be in the reading room, for all I know.他说不定在阅览室里。
3.Ladies and gentlemen, please go and wait in the meeting room.
女士们先生们,请去会议室等待。

2)与被修饰词为主动关系且表示正在进行的动作。如:
1.There were about 200 children studying in the art school.
有大约二百个孩子在这所艺术学校学习。
2.Who is the woman talking to our English teacher?
正在和我们英语老师谈话的那位妇女是谁?

3)有些-ing形式已经转化成形容词,常做定语用来修饰物,表示“令人……”。常用的此类词有:exciting,amusing,amazing,astonishing,shocking,puzzling,confusing,
disappointing,discouraging,pleasing,striking,boring,tiring,touching,moving,
interesting, satisfying, terrifying, frightening等。如:
1.That must have been a terrifying experience.那准时一段可怕的经历。
2.The experiment was an amazing success.那项试验是一个惊人的成功。
3.There is a page missing from this book.这本书缺了一页。

除了-ing形式能做定语外,如果-ing形式与被修饰词是被动关系,就用它的被动式,即being done. being doing通常表示正在被做,常做后置定语。如:
1.The tall building being built now is our new school.
正在被建的高楼是我们的新学校。
2.The question being discussed was presented by the headmaster.
正在被讨论的问题是被校长提出的。
