分词分为现在分词和过去分词两种,是一种非谓语动词形式。现在分词和过去分词主要差别在于:现在分词表示“主动和进行”,过去分词表示“被动和完成”(不及物动词的过去分词不表示被动,只表示完成)。分词可以有自己的状语、宾语或逻辑主语等。
一、分词后面加上短语构成分词短语,分词短语,首先含有分词,短语就是由两个或两个以上单词组成的一个结构。分词短语就是由分词加其他词构成的短语。比如:
1.I like the girl singing in the room.
分析:girl后面的singing in the room.就是分词短语,在句中做定语。
2.The boy called Tom is my best friend.
分析:called 是过去分词做定语.修饰boy 可以翻译为叫做汤姆的男孩
3.There was a terrible noise following the sudden burst of light.
分析:这些都是做定语的
4.Seeing from the top of the hill, we can find that the city looks more beautiful.
分析:逻辑主语是we现在分词做状语
5.seen from the top of the hill, it looks like a dragon.
分析:逻辑主语是 it 过去分词做状语
6.scolded by the teacher,he is unhappy.
分子:也是过去分词短语做原因状语。
二、1.分词可与其宾语构成分词短语。
1)Following this road, you will find the bus stop.
要是沿着这条路走,你会找到车站。(following this road是分词短语。)
2) Do you know the girl making paper flowers?
你认识做纸花的那个女孩吗?(making paper flowers是分词短语。)

2) Being caught in the rain, he got a cold.
