第12章　非謂語動詞 12.4　過去分詞的用法

12.4　過去分詞的用法

12.4.1　過去分詞概說

過去分詞在句中可以：

1) 構成謂語：

a. 和have一道構成完成時態(tài)或非謂語動詞的完成形式：

I haven't been out much recently. 我最近沒太出門。

I knew you had been busy. 我知道你一直很忙。

I'm sorry not to have given you enough help. 對不起沒給你足夠的幫助。

Having read the instructions, she snatched up the fire extinguisher. 看完說明書之后，她抓起了滅火器。

b. 和be一道構成被動語態(tài)或非謂語動詞的被動形式：

The letter has been opened! 信被人拆開了！

The children were well looked after. 孩子們受到很好的照顧。

He ought to have been told about it. 這事早該告訴他的。

He was said to have been arrested. 據說他被捕了。

2) 用作表語：

I am awfully worried. Daddy is ill. 我很著急，我爸爸病了。

3) 用作定語：

She had a worried look on her face. 她滿面愁容。

4) 構成復合賓語：

She wanted the work finished by Friday. 她要求這工作星期五前完成。

5) 作狀語：

Aroused by the crash, he leapt to his feet. 他被撞擊聲驚醒，一躍站起身來。

過去分詞只有一種形式，在大多數情況下都有被動的意思。

12.4.2　過去分詞作表語

1) 過去分詞作表語的時候很多（其中有很多已變成形容詞）：

He was amazed and enchanted at the sight. 看到這景象他感到驚異著迷。

She was annoyed at your saying that. 你這樣講她很不高興。

We were so bored that we couldn't help yawning. 我們厭煩得要命，禁不住打起了呵欠。

2) 這種結構和被動語態(tài)是有差別的，“be+表語”結構表示一種狀態(tài)，而被動語態(tài)表示一個動作，試比較下面句子：

be+表語結構（表示狀態(tài)） 被動結構（表示動作）

* * *

* * *

He Was (Is) Wounded In The Leg. 他腿受了傷?！　　　　　　?They Were Wounded During The Battle.他們在戰(zhàn)斗中受了傷。

The new railway is not completed yet.新的鐵路還沒建成。 　　　　　　 It'll be completed next spring. 它將于明年春天建成。

“be+表語”結構都包含be或其他系動詞加過去分詞，而被動結構必須與其相應的主動結構在時態(tài)上一致。例如右邊例句的主動結構（Tim broke the window./Her husband has deserted her./They will complete the railway.）和它們在時態(tài)上是一致的。
