动词-ing形式作表语
作表语的动词-ing形式包括现在分词和动名词。
1.现在分词作表语,往往具有形容词的性质,说明主语的性质、特征等。作表语的现在分词,许多是由能够表示人们某种感情或情绪的动词变化而来的。常见的有:moving, interesting, encouraging, exciting, inspiring, boring, surprising, puzzling, amusing, astonishing ...这类分词有“令人……的”的含义,常修饰物。
◆The argument is very convincing. 这个论点很令人信服。
◆His performance is very entertaining, which brings us much pleasure. 他的表演非常有趣,给我们带来很大的乐趣。
不定式和动词-ed形式也可作表语,但不定式通常强调一次性的、具体的、将要发生的动作,动词-ed形式则表示被动、完成含义。
2.动名词作表语多表示抽象性的或习惯性的动作,一般说明主语的内容。 ◆Her job is keeping the lecture hall as clean as possible. =Keeping the lecture hall as clean as possible is her job.
她的工作是尽量使报告厅保持干净。 【即时演练1】——单句语法填空

动词-ing形式作定语
动名词和现在分词都可以作定语,但有所区别。
1.动名词作定语表示被修饰词的某种性能或用途,相当于for引导的介词短语。 ◆No one is allowed to speak aloud in the reading room. 阅览室里不准大声说话。
◆There is a swimming pool in our school. 我们学校有一个游泳池。
2.现在分词作定语时,它和被修饰词之间有逻辑上的主动关系,表示所修饰词进行的动作,相当于一个定语从句。
◆The boy playing football on the playground is my younger brother.
=The boy that/who is playing football on the playground is my younger brother. 在操场上踢足球的那个男孩是我的弟弟。
◆The girl performing on the stage has a gift for dance. =The girl who is performing on the stage has a gift for dance. 那个在舞台上表演的女孩有舞蹈天赋。
现在分词、过去分词和不定式作定语的一般区别:现在分词表示正在进行或习惯性的动作;过去分词表示被动或完成意义;不定式表示动作尚未发生。
◆You should adapt to the changing situation. 你应该适应不断变化的形势。
◆The ground is covered with fallen leaves. 地上满是落叶。
◆I’m looking for a room to live in. 我正在找房子住。
