知識(shí)點(diǎn)二語法
1.分詞；
2. 分詞做定語；
3. 分詞語法拓展
分詞屬于非謂語動(dòng)詞之一，非謂語動(dòng)詞還包括不定式和動(dòng)名詞。
定義：
分詞就是具有動(dòng)詞及形容詞二者特征的詞，尤指以-ing或-ed,-d,-t,-en或-n結(jié)尾的英語動(dòng)詞性形容詞，具有形容詞功能，同時(shí)又表現(xiàn)各種動(dòng)詞性特點(diǎn)，如時(shí)態(tài)、語態(tài)、帶狀語性修飾語的性能及帶賓詞的性能。
分類：
分詞分為現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞兩種，是一種非謂語動(dòng)詞形式。現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞主要差別在于：現(xiàn)在分詞表示“主動(dòng)和進(jìn)行”，過去分詞表示“被動(dòng)和完成”（不及物動(dòng)詞的過去分詞不表示被動(dòng)，只表示完成）。分詞可以有自己的狀語、賓語或邏輯主語等。
分詞作定語：
分詞作定語時(shí)，具有形容詞的性質(zhì)。單個(gè)的分詞通常放在被修飾的名詞之前，分詞短語作定語，置于被修飾詞的后面?，F(xiàn)在分詞表示主動(dòng)、進(jìn)行意義，及物動(dòng)詞的過去分詞作定語表示被動(dòng)、完成意義，不及物動(dòng)詞的過去分詞作定語只表示完成意義。

2. An ld friendship had grwn cld. Where nce there had been clseness, there was nly strain. Nw pride kept me frm picking up the phne.
Then ne day I drpped in n anther ld friend, wh’s had a lng career as a minister and cunselr. We were seated in his study----surrunded by maybe a thusand bks and fell int deep cnversatin abut everything frm small cmputers t the trmented life f Beethven.
The subject finally turned t friendship and ____33____ perishable it seems t be these days. I mentined my wn experience as an example. “Relatinships are mysteries,” my friend said. “Sme endure. ____34____ fall apart.”
Gazing ut his windw t the wded Vermnt hills, he pinted tward a neighbring farm, “Used t be a large barn ver there.” Next t a red-frame huse were the ftings f ____35____ had been a sizable structure.
“It was slidly built, prbably in the 1870s. But like s many f the places arund here, it went dwn because peple left fr richer lands in the Midwest. N ne tk care f the barn. Its rf needed ____36____(patch); rainwater gt under the eaves and dripped dwn inside the psts and beams.”
One day a high wind came alng, and the whle barn began t tremble. “Yu culd hear this creaking, first, like ld sailing-ship timbers, and then a sharp series f cracks and a tremendus raring sund. Suddenly it was a heap f scrap lumber.”
“After the strm blew ver, I went dwn and saw these beautiful, ld ak timbers, slid as culd be. I asked the fellw wh wns the place what had happened. He said he figured the rainwater ____37____(settle) in the pinhles, where wden dwels held the jints tgether. Once thse pins were rtted, there was nthing t link the giant beams tgether.”
We bth gazed dwn the hill. Nw all that was left f the barn was its cellar and its brder f lilac shrubs.
My friend said he had turned the incident ver and ver in his mind, and finally came t recgnize sme parallels between building a friendship: _______ ___38___ _______ strng yu are, hw ntable yur attainments, yu have enduring significance nly in yur relatinship t thers.
“T make yur life a sund structure that will serve thers and fulfill yur wn ptential,” he said, “yu have t remember that strength, hwever massive, can’t endure ___39___ it has the interlcking supprt f thers. G it alne and yu’ll inevitably tumble.”
“Relatinships have t be cared fr,” he added, “l(fā)ike the rf f a barn. Letters unwritten, thanks unsaid, cnfidences vilated, quarrels unsettled-----all this acts like rainwater seeping int the pegs, weakening the link between the beams.”
My friend shk his head. “It was _____40____ gd barn. And it wuld have taken little t keep it in gd repair. Nw it will prbably never be rebuilt.”
Later that afternn I gt ready t leave. “Yu wuldn’t like t brrw my phne t make a call, I dn’t suppse?” he asked.
“Yes.” I said, “I think I wuld. Very much.”
