语法精讲
动词-ing形式作宾补和状语
一．作宾补
动词-ing形式置于某些及物动词和宾语之后，补充说明宾语的动作或状态。
1.在感官动词后作宾语补足语
在see，hear，feel，watch，notice等感官动词后，表示一个正在进行的主动的动作，强调一个
过程或一种状态。
In the crowded cafe, I heard a friendly voice saying, “You can share my table.”
He saw a girl wandering on the street this time yesterday.
注意：
see/ hear /watch/ feel/ notice+sb./ sth.+doing sth.强调动作正在进行；
see/ hear/ watch/ feel/ notice+sb./ sth.+do sth.强调动作发生的全过程/全过程已经结束了。
Today on my way home, I saw a man running along the street hurriedly.
I saw him enter the room and take something away.
2.在使役动词宾补结构中的使用使役动词接现在分词作宾语补足语，表示“让……一直做某
事”
It’s cold. We should have the fire burning all the time.
I won’t have you running about in the room.
注意：
1) have/ get+sb./ sth.+done包括两层意思：
①让别人去做某事。②（主语）遭受到（意外的损失或不幸）。
have +宾语+do sth. 意思是“让某人去干某事”。
1. Mother has me go to the shop to buy some fruit.
2. He had/ got his computer stolen the other day.
3. He will have/ get the computer repaired tomorrow.
2) leave/ keep +sb./ sth. done sth.（使……处于/保持某种状态）
Many teachers keep parents informed of children’s performance in the kindergarten by sharing
videos on WeChat.
3. 现在分词在with复合结构中的使用
在with复合结构中，现在分词充当宾语补足语，表动作“正在进行”。Does Kilimanjaro deserve its reputation as a crowded mountain with lines of tourists ruining the
atmosphere of peace?
注意：
在with的复合结构中, 也可以使用不定式和过去分词作宾语补足语。
All the afternoon he worked with the door locked（表被动）.
I can’t go out with all these clothes to wash（表将来）.
二．作状语
动词-ing形式可以作状语，修饰动词，表示时间、原因、结果、条件、让步、行为方式或伴随
情况等。-ing形式作时间、原因、条件、让步状语时多位于句首；作结果、伴随情况状语时常
位于句末。
1.表示时间。
Hearing these stories, I’m skeptical about the place.
= When I heard these stories…
2.表示原因。
Not knowing his address, I can’t send this book to him.
= Because/Since/As I don’t know his address…
3. 表示结果。
His father died, leaving him a lot of money.
=…, and left him a lot of money
4.表示条件。
Going straight down the road, you will find the department store.
= If you go straight down the road…
5.表示让步。
Being tired, they went on working.
=Although they were tired…
6.表示行为方式、伴随情况或补充说明。
He lay on the grass, staring at the sky for a long time.
=…, and stared at the sky for a long time .
注意：
非谓语动词作状语时，如所提供的动词不能和句子中的主语保持一致，动词-ing形式必须有自
己的逻辑主语，通常由名词或代词来担任，这就是独立主格结构。
The last bus having gone, we had to walk home.
（having gone的逻辑主语是the last bus，而不是we）
Weather permitting, the football match will be played on Friday.
（permitting的逻辑主语是weather，而不是the football match）

We spend so much time waiting to be loved, hoping love will find us, and searching for that special
love. Unfortunately, that's not usually how life works. Loving yourself is mainly having selfrespect, which
is the only dependable way to create love in your own life, so you can share it with others. To be able to be
loved, you must love and respect yourself as much as you do others. By doing so, you are enabling positive
energy and allowing for great situation to occur in your life.Bringing joy to other people's lives will help you find joy in your own. In addition, those who you treat
well will likely repay you with the same kindness. Gradually, you will start to feel your worth through the
smiles of gratitude. However, don't just be very kind to people so you can receive royal treatment.
Don't punish yourself for something you have done in the past. Instead, look at the mistake as a
learning experience. Say to yourself now, “I forgive myself for ...” Go to look in a mirror, and say it out
loud to yourself. Look at yourself right in the eyes, and speak forgiveness like you mean it. If you do, laugh
out loud, realizing that was then and this is now. Every day is a new beginning.
We all want a nice house, nice things, and someone to share our life with. Find your true wants
objectively. Are you eager for power, a religion, or simply a motive? Sometimes, it's easier to hide the truth
from yourself, but figuring out what you really want will help you know yourself better. This will hopefully
aid you in answering important questions you often ask yourself.
Write about your experiences, good and bad. When you write down good experiences, allow yourself
to feel those feelings. When you remember bad experiences, allow yourself to feel selfcompassion (自我同
情). Compassion is not selfpity, but rather a willingness to accept one's own pain and regret. Compassion
allows us to be present with our pain, so we can acknowledge it and let it go.
1．What can we conclude from the passage?
A．We must show great respect for others.
B．We should love ourselves in order to get love.
C．We should overcome any difficulty.
D．We must have mercy on everyone.
2．According to the passage, most people .
A．have a dependable way to create love in their lives
B．keep their selfrespect hidden in their hearts
C．are longing to get love from family or friends
D．are waiting for chances to give love to others
3．When you realize you have made a mistake, .
A．you should blame yourself for what you have done
B．you should find a way to bring joy to others
C．you should face a mirror for a long time
D．you should learn a lesson from your mistake

Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal ofearning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-
Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.
Mauer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job
away from the farm, and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local
technical college, working to pay her tuition (学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a
college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.
Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to
advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing.
She chose the UWEau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was
able to pursue her fouryear degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to
help with her kids. Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: Her
husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68yearold mother helped take care of the children at
times.
Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed
(牺牲) to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study.
“Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or
papers，” she says. However, her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn
her degree. Jennifer is a firstgeneration graduate and an inspiration to her family—and that's pretty
powerful.

6．What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal?

8yearold Mario spent one day selling lemonade in New Jersey. But he didn't do it for spending money.“The people in the hospital need more medicine，” Mario said.
Mario's lemonade stand raised money after a group called Alex's Lemonade Stand, which is an
organization that raises money for research on cancers that affect kids. Their research might one day lead to
a cure. The organization is named for Alexandra Scott, a girl who died of cancer eight years ago when she
was eight years old. Alex's Lemonade Stand actually began four years earlier before she died. That's when
she announced that she wanted to sell lemonade to raise money for a cancer cure for all kids.
This year，thousands of kids across the country are selling lemonade to raise money for Alex's
foundation. In Maryland, a group of kids at the Children's Guild held a fundraiser for Alex in April.
And in Florida, Harrison began raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand last year, when he was seven.
This year, he raised more than 500 dollars. Harrison hoped it could help kids by scientists finding a cure.
He also dreamed of finding a cure himself. “When I grow up, I'm going to invent these little ‘nanobots’ that

How to Love Your Parents?
You love your parents for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part, a source of who
you are. 1
Respect them more and value these moments. You can use these moments to learn from them,
preparing yourself for when you're off on your own. It's OK to get angry but angry actions don't help you or
your parents. Act calmly, cool off, write down your feelings, or talk to a friend. 2
Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may
seem like you are going through hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean. However, you
had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold, raining, snowing, or too hot.
Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes. 3 Since you can forgive your friends,
why not forgive your parents?
Keep company with them. Do things with your parents like watching TV, or going somewhere with
them. 4 Listen to their old stories and learn from them. You will find they are your teachers in this
way or another.

coldest heart. 5 Without your parents, you cannot come to this world.
