四级考试中有这样一个题目:
These surveys indicate that many crimes go _______ by the police, mainly because not all victims report them.
A)
这是一种很常用的句型,希望各位也能学会。
Many stories went untold. 许多故事就没有人讲过。
Their suffering may have gone/passed unnoticed. (NCE-3-The power of the Press)
Many complaints went unrecorded. 许多投诉都没有记录。
We should not let such things go unchecked. 我们不应该让这种事情听之任之。
上面讲了go与过去分词的连用,再来讲讲与现在分词连用的情况。先看看新概念英语中的句子:
Chairs and tables went flying into the arcade. (NCE-3-L6 Smash and grab)椅子与桌子在拱廊的空中乱飞。
Then the sound of rumbling thunder reached the watchers on the shore, as cargo, ballast, ammunition and 400 people went sliding and crashing down to the port side of the steeply listing ship. (NCE-4-L27 The Vasa)当货物、压舱物、弹药和400个人轰地一声滑向陡斜的左舷时,岸上的观众听到了雷鸣般的轰响。
这两个例句中go与动词-ing形式连用, 表示某人[某事物]以某方式移动或在移动中做某事物), -ing 动词表示就是移动的方式。 更多例句:
There he hung for a minute, then he went falling down. 他挂在树上一分钟, 然后掉下去了。
