動詞-ing 形式的被動式
當動詞-ing形式的邏輯主語是動作的承受者時,要用其被動形式,即being done,它表示一個正在進行或與謂語表示的動作同時發(fā)生的被動動作。與其主動形式一樣,它在句中可充當主語、賓語、定語、補語、狀語。
1.作主語
being done用于句首作主語,表示一個被動的動作。
①Being exposed to sunshine for too much time will do harm to one's skin.
在陽光下暴露太久對皮膚有害。
2.作賓語
being done 可以用于動詞或介詞后作賓語,表示一個被動的動作。
②The film star wears sunglasses. Therefore, he can go shopping without being recognized.
這個影星戴著墨鏡,所以他能在購物時不被認出來。
3.作定語
being done 作定語,只能置于被修飾的名詞后,表示一個正在進行的被動動作。
③The problem being discussed now is very important.
現(xiàn)在正在被討論的這個問題非常重要。
4.作補足語
being done 可以用在某些動詞(see, hear, watch, feel, notice, find, keep ...)后作賓語補足語,表示一個正在進行的被動動作。
④You'll find the topic being discussed everywhere now.
你將發(fā)現(xiàn)這個話題現(xiàn)在到處被討論。
5.作狀語
being done用作狀語,是一個比較重要的用法,主要用于句首表示原因,有時也表示其他關系(如時間等)。
⑤Being repaired, the road is blocked now.
因為這條路正在被修建,所以被堵上了。
being done的完成式為“having been done”,說明它所表示的動作在謂語動作之前發(fā)生,通常在句中作賓語和狀語。
⑥Having been taught many times, the boy still couldn't finish those tasks independently.
已經(jīng)被教了許多次,這個男孩仍然不能獨立完成這些任務。
