英语主格结构分析和练习
一、概念:
“主格结构”是由名词或代词作为逻辑主语,加上分词、形容词、副词、动词不定式或介词短语作为逻辑谓语构成。这种结构在形式上与主句没有关系,通常称为“主格结构”。 二、功能:
“主格结构”实质就是带有自己主语的非限定状语从句。非限定性从句通常以主句的某一成分作为自己的逻辑主语,从而依附于主句。而有些非限定性从句和无动词从句带有自己的主语,在结构上与主句不发生关系,因此成为主格结构。其实,虽然叫做主格结构,并不是真正的,它还是一种从属分句,在句中有多种作用。如:表原因、表条件、表方式、表伴随、表时间等,在句中通常起状语作用。
三、形式:
主格结构在形式上有两部分组成:第一部分有名词或代词担任,第二部分由分词、动词不定式、形容词、副词、或介词短语担任。按其结构形式分为:—ing 分词主格结构;—ed分词主格结构;无动词主格结构等。 四、举例:
1、There being nothing else to do, they go away. 由于无事可做,他们离开了。(代词+-ing; 表原因) 2、Miss Wang come into the classroom, books in hand. 王老师走进教室,手里拿着书。(无动词结构;表伴随) 3、The old man sat in his chair, his eyes closed. 老人坐在椅子上,闭着眼睛。(名词+-ed; 表状态) 4、Class over, we began to play basketball.
放学了,我们开始玩篮球。(名词+副词;表时间) 5、Without a word more spoken, he picked up the paper. 没再多说一个字,他拾起那张纸。(介词结构;表伴随)
6、The last guest to arrive, our party was started.
最后一位客人到了,我们的晚会开始了。(名词+不定式;表时间)
五、练习及讲解:
The murderer was brought in, with his hands ___ behind his back。 A. being tied B. having tied C. to be tied D. tied
答案D. with +名词(代词)+分词+介词短语结构。当分词表示伴随状况时,其主语常常用with来引导。由于本句中名词\"手\"与分词\"绑\"是被动关系,因此用过去分词,选D. Weather___, we'll go out for a walk.
A. permitted B permitting C permits D for permitting
答案B. 本题中没有连词,它不是复合句,也不是并列句。 句中使用了逗号,且we 小写,可知其不是两个简单句。能够这样使用的只有主格或with的复合结构。据此判断,本句中使用的是结构,其结构为:名词+分词。 由于permit在这里翻译为'天气允许',表主动,应用现在分词,故选B。
如果不会判断结构作状语的形式,不妨将句子改为条件句,例如本句改为If weather permits, we'll go out for a walk. 然后将if 去掉,再将谓语动词改为非谓语动词即可。 A new technique________ ,the yields as a whole increased by 20 pre cent. A)working out C)having been worked out
