独立主格结构中的非谓语
非谓语动词作状语时，它的逻辑主语应该是句子的主语。但有时非谓语动词带有自己的主语，从而在结构上与主语不发生关系，我们称之为独立主格结构（Absolute
Construction）。其实，所谓“独立主格结构”也并非真正独立，它还是一种从属的结构。
一、 非谓语动词独立主格结构
在独立主格结构中，非谓语动词和它前面的名词或代词存在着逻辑上的主谓关系。
Such an able man to help you，you will
surely succeed sooner or later.
有这么能干的人来帮你, 你迟早一定会成功的。（such an able man和 to
help you 之间存在着主谓关系）
= Since such an able man will help you, you
will surely succeed sooner or later.
He seating himself at the desk, his mother
began to tell him a story.
他在书桌旁坐好后，他母亲开始给他讲故事。（seating himself at the
desk拥有了自己的逻辑主语he，注意是“主格”）
= When he seated himself at the desk, his
mother began to tell him a story.
The key to the bike lost, he had to walk to
school.
由于丢了自行车钥匙，他只好步行去学校。（lost 的逻辑主语是the key，lost
也可以用完成式having been lost）
= Because the key to the bike had been
lost, he had to walk to school.
A．不定式“独立主格结构”
在“逻辑主语
动词不定式”结构中，动词不定式和它前面的名词或代词存在着逻辑上的主谓关系。这种结构也可用一个从句或并列分句来表达。
1．动词不定式用主动的形式
在独立主格结构中，动词不定式和它前面的名词或代词存在着逻辑上的主谓关系。
His mother to come tonight，he is busy
preparing the dinner.
他母亲今晚要来,他正在忙着准备饭菜。（= As his mother is to
come tonight, he is busy preparing the dinner.）
——will you go to the comcert tonight
你今晚去听音乐会吗？
——sorry.So many exerise-books to check,I
rially can't afford any time.
对不起，有这多的作业要批，我真的抽不出时间。
（＝Because I shall check so many
exercise-books tonight,I really can't afford any time.）
The four of us agreed on a division of
labour,each to translate a quarter of the book.
我们四人同意分工干，每人翻译全书的四分之一。
（＝The four of us agreed on a division of
labour and each is to translate a quarter of the book.）
Many trees,flowers,and grass to be
planted,our newly-built school will look even more beautiful.
种上许多的树，花和草后，我们新建的学校将看上去更美。(=If many trees,flowers,and grass are
planted,our newly-built school will look even more
beautiful.)
B．-ing形式“独立主格结构”
动词的-ing形式作状语时，其逻辑主语一般应与句子的主语保持一致。
Being ill, he went
home.
由于生病,他回家了。（= As he was very ill, he went home.）
Seating himself at the desk, he began to
read a magazine.
在课桌旁坐好后，他开始看杂志。（= When he had seated himself at the desk, he
began to read a magazine.）
1． 表示时间的-ing形式作“独立主格结构”
Everyone being ready, the teacher began his
class.
每个人都准备好后，老师开始上课。（相当于一个时间状语从句When everyone
was
ready)
The chairman began the meeting , everyone
being seated.
每个人坐好后，主席开始开会。（相当于一个时间状语从句after everyone
was seated）
2． 表示原因的-ing形式作“独立主格结构”
The boy leading the way, we had no trouble
finding the strange cave.
由那个男孩带路，我们没有困难就找到了那奇怪的洞。（相当于一个原因状语从句Because the boy led the
way）
Many eyes watching him, he felt a bit
nervous. 许多眼睛看着他，他感到有点儿紧张。（相当于一个原因状语从句As many eyes were watching
him）
必背：
含有being的独立主格结构。
It being National Day today，the streets are
very crowded. 今天是国庆节,街上很拥挤。
= As it is National Day today, the streets
are very crowded.
There being no further business to discuss,
we all went home. 没有别的事可讨论，我们都回家了。
= As there was no further business to
discuss, we all went home.
3． 表示条件的-ing形式作“独立主格结构”
Time permitting, we will have a picnic next
week.
时间允许的话，我们下星期将进行一次野炊。（相当于一个条件状语从句If
time
permits)
My health allowing, I will work far into
the night.
我的健康许可的话，我愿工作到深夜。（相当于一个条件状语从句If my health
allows）
4． 表示方式的-ing形式作“独立主格结构”
The students are walking in the school
happily, each wearing a card in front of his chest.
学生们快乐地在学校里走着，每个人胸前都带着一张卡。（相当于一个并列分句and each
wears a card in front of his chest）
The boy lay on the grass, his eyes looking
at the sky.
男孩躺在草地上，眼睛看着天空。（相当于一个并列分句and his eyes were
looking at the sky）
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.

living conditions greatly improved.

eyes fixed on the blackboard.

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

the youngest a boy of 12.
十个学生报名参加了这次竞赛，年纪最小的是个12岁的男孩。（the youngest和a
boy of 12之间省去了being）

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。

由于没有公共汽车，我们只好走回家。

in hand.

stood at the door, a violin in his hand.）
二、 withwithout 引导的独立主格结构

三、 独立主格结构的句法功能
