独立主格2
C .- ed 形式“独立主格结构”
与逻辑主语+动词的- ing 形式一样,如果- ed 形式的逻辑主语和句子的主语不一致的话,就需要用- ed 形式的独立主格结构。
The book written in simple English, English beginners were able to read it .该书是用简单英语写的,英语初学者也能看懂。
= as the book was written in simple English , English beginners were able to read it .
The workers worked still harder, their living conditions greatly improved .由于工人们的生活条件大大提高,他们工作得更起劲了。
= as their living conditions were greatly improved, the workers worked still harder .
He was listening attentively in class, his eyes fixed on the blackboard .他上课专心听讲,眼睛紧盯着黑板。
= He was listening attentively in class, and his eyes were fixed on the blackboard .
The task completed, he had two months'leave .任务完成以后,他休了两个月的假。(= When the task had been completed, he had two months'leave .)
比较:
动词不定式表示动作没有发生或即将发生,动词- ed 形式表示动作已经结束,动词- ing 形式往往表示动作正在进行。
The manager looks worried , many things to settle .经理看上去很着急 有这么多的事情要处理。(事情还没有处理,而且是由经理本人来处理,用不定式 to settle )
The manager looks relaxed, many things settled .许多事情已经处理好了,经理看上去很轻松。(事情已经处理好了,用动词- ed 形式 settled 表示动作已经结束)
The food being cooked, the boy was watching TV .小孩一边做饭,一边看电视。(两个动作同时进行)
The food cooked, the boy went to bed .饭做好了,小孩去睡了。(两个动作有先后,饭已做好,小孩才去睡觉的)
二、动词独立主格结构
“逻辑主语+ being +其他”是独立主格结构中的“逻辑主语+动词- ing 形式”的一种形式。在这种结构中, being 往往可以被省去,这种省去 being 的结构,称之为无动词“独立主格结构”。
a .逻辑主语+名词
Ten students entered for the competition, the youngest a boy of twelve.十个学生报名参加了这次竞赛,年纪最小的是个十二岁的男孩。( the youngest 和 a boy of 12之间省去了 being )
注意:
独立主格结构中的 being 在下列两种情况下一般不能省略,一是在“ There being +名词”结构中,二是在逻辑主语是代词的情况下。
There being no bus, we had to walk home .由于没有公共汽车,我们只好走回家。
it being Sunday, all the offices are closed .因为是星期日,所有办公室都关门。
B .逻辑主语+形容词

提示:
在“逻辑主语+介词短语”构成的独立主格结构里,如果名词用单数,可以不用冠词,同时介词短语里的限定词也可省略。
The music teacher stood at the door, violin in hand .音乐老师站在门口 手里拿着一把小提琴。(= The music teacher stood at the door, a violin in his hand .)
三、 with, without 引导的独立主格结构
介词 with/without +宾语+宾语的补足语可以构成独立主格结构,上面讨论过的独立主格结构的几种情况在此结构中都能体现。
a . with +名词代词+形容词

= He doesn't like to sleep when the windows are open .
