5.________ for two days,Steve managed to finish his report on schedule.(2015·天津,8) A.To work C.To be working 答案 D
解析 考查非谓语动词作时间状语。句意为:工作了两天后,史蒂夫设法准时完成了报告。句子主语Steve与动词work之间为主谓关系,故要用现在分词形式;同时work的动作发生在谓语动词managed to finish之前,故要用完成时。 考点归纳
1.分词作状语表示时间、原因、条件、结果、伴随或方式、目的等;作状语时,是用现在分词还是用过去分词,取决于该动词与句子主语之间的关系。如果是逻辑上的主谓关系,一般用现在分词;如果是逻辑上的动宾关系,一般用过去分词。分词的完成时表示动作先于谓语动词发生。
Pressed from his parents,and realizing that he has wasted too much time,the boy is determined to stop playing video games.
由于来自父母的压力,以及认识到浪费了太多的时间,这个男孩决定不玩电子游戏了。(表示原因) Having finished his speech,he answered our questions. 做完演讲后,他回答了我们的问题。
Seen from the top of the hill,the park looks even more beautiful. 从山顶上看,这个公园显得更加美丽。(see与主语the park之间存在动宾关系) Seeing from the top of the hill,we find the park even more beautiful. 从山顶上看,我们发现这个公园显得更加美丽。(see与主语we之间存在主谓关系) 2.某些动词的过去分词已经形容词化,此时这些过去分词表示一种状态。这样的词有:lost (迷路的),seated (坐),lost/absorbed in (沉溺于),dressed in (穿着),tired of (感到厌倦),faced with (面对)等。
Absorbed in his book,he didn’t notice me enter the room. 专心于读书,他没注意到我进入房间。
Dressed in a red coat,he is like a girl rather than a boy. 穿着一件红色衣服,他更像一个女孩。
3.不定式作状语主要表示原因、目的、结果等。表原因时常用在表情感和态度的形容词后。如be happy/sorry/surprised/ashamed等;表目的时其前可加上in order或so as (so as to do一般不放在句首);表结果时其前通常与only连用,往往表示出乎意料的结果。不定式的插入结构作状语,为固定短语结构。如:to be honest/to tell you the truth(老实说),to be frank(说实话,坦率地说),to begin with(首先),to start with(首先),to be more
B.Worked D.Having worked
exact(更确切地说),to sum up(总之,概括地说)等。
