过去分词作定语和表语
过去分词作定语,在语态上,表被动;在时间上,表示动作已经发生或完成,与它所修饰的名词有逻辑(意义)上的动宾关系。过去分词作定语时,所修饰的名词在逻辑上相当于被动句中的主语,过去分词相当于谓语。
过去分词作定语表示动作在谓语动作之前发生,已经完成并具有被动意义。有时也不表示时间性。作定语的过去分词一般由及物动词变来,因为只有及物动词才有被动意义。例如: 
He is teacher loved by his students. 他是个很受学生爱戴的老师。 
也有用不及物动词的过去分词作定语的情况,一般作前置定语,它不表示被动意义,只表示主动意义,强调动作完成。不能像及物动词的过去分词那样放在名词后面作定语。例如:
fallen leaves 落叶 
retired workers 退休工人 
the risen sun 升起的太阳 
注意下面过去分词作定语的几种情况: 
1. 单个的过去分词作定语一般放在被修饰的名词之前。例如: 
We needed much more qualified workers. 我们需要更多的合格的工人。 
My friend is returned student. 我的朋友是个归国的留学生。 
单个分词也可以作后置定语,用以强调动作。例如: 
They decided to change the material used. 他们决定更换使用的材料。
2. 过去分词短语作定语要放在被修饰的名词后面,作后置定语,其作用相当于一个定语从句。例如: 
The student dressed in white is my daughter. 
=The student who is dressed in white is my daughter.)穿白色衣服的学生是我的女儿。
3. 如果被修饰的词是由every/some/any/no thing/body/one所构成的复合代词或指示代词those等时,即使一个单一的分词作形容词用,也要放在被修饰词的后面。例如: 
Is there anything unsolved? 还有没解决的问题吗? 
There is noting changed here since left this town.自从我离开这个城镇以来,几乎没有什么变化。
4. 单个过去分词前加一名词或副词,常用连字符将它们连接起来构成一个复合形容词,放在其修饰的名词前,作前置定语。分词前加的名词表示分词的动作或行为主体,所加的副词表示方式、时间、程度、性质等意义。例如: 
This is state-owned factory. 这是一家国营工厂。 
This is our school-run factory. 这是我们的校办工厂。
5. 作前置定语的某些动词的过去分词的形式与作谓语或表语的过去分词的形式往往不一样。例如: 
原 形 用作定语的过去分词 用作表语或谓语的过去分词 
drink drunken drunk 
light lighted light/ lit 
melt melted melted 
sink sunken sunk 

We lit the candle and the candle lit up the room. 我们点着蜡烛,蜡烛照亮房间。 
There is lighted candle on the table. 桌上有一支点着的蜡烛。  

 

过去分词作表语和定语是非谓语动词重要内容之一,也是高考重要考点,学习时应注意下列几点:

  一、理清过去分词作表语和定语的最基本特点

  过去分词作表语和定语常常表示被动的和完成的动作。

  He used to belong to the exploited class. 过去他属于被剥削阶级。

  The polluted river gives off a terrible smell. 这条被污染的河发出臭味。

  典型考例:

  1. Don't use words, expressions, or phrases ________ only to people with specific knowledge.

  A. being known

  B. having been known

  C. to be known

  D. known

  析: D。此处并不是强调进行的、完成的或将来的动作,因此应填过去分词known作定语。

  2. The first textbooks ________ for teaching English as a foreign language came out in the 16th century.

  A. having written B. to be written C. being written D. written

  析: D。第一批课本是被写的,所以应填过去分词written作定语,表示完成的、被动的动作。

  值得注意的是,有些过去分词(词组)因来自系表结构而不含被动色彩,如dressed like, dressed in, satisfied with, devoted to, tired of, born in, seated, pleased with, interested in, surprised at, prepared for, lost /absorbed in等。例如:

  Do you know the man seated on that stone? 你认识坐在那块石头上的那个人吗?

  Don't you know the girl dressed in a red skirt ? 你不认识穿红裙子的那个女孩吗?

  典型考例:

  1. The pilot asked all the passengers on board to remain ________ as the plane was making a landing.

  A. seat B. seating C. seated D. to be seating

  析: C。remain seated 为系表结构,不具有被动色彩。

  一些表示情绪、情感的过去分词作表语和定语时也不具备被动色彩。例如:

  He felt puzzled at what she said. 听到她的话他感到很迷惑。

  The excited people finally cooled down.激动的人们终于冷静了下来。

  典型考例:

  2. -I'm very ________ with my own cooking. It looks nice and smells delicious.

  - Mm. It does have a ________ smell.

  A. pleasant; pleased

  B. pleased; pleased

  C. pleasant; pleasant

  D. pleased; pleasant

  析: D。第一空应填pleased,表满意的情绪;第二空应填pleasant,表令人愉快的。

  二、掌握过去分词作表语和定语的创新形式

  1. get done也可构成被动语态,相当于be done。例如:

  His right hand got burnt in that big fire.他的右手在那场大火中被烧伤。

  She got murdered last year.去年她被谋杀了。

  典型考例:

  1.-How are the team playing?

  -They're playing well, but one of them ________ hurt.

  A. got B. gets C. are D. were

  析: A。语境逻辑提示该空表过去被弄伤。

  2. As we joined the big crowd I got ________ from my friends.

  A. separated B. spared C. lost D. missed

  析: A。分析语境逻辑和句子结构可知,该空表示"被分离",词组get separated...from表示"与……分开"。

  3. Be careful when you cross this very busy street. If not, you may ________ run over by a car.

  A. have B. get C. become D. turn

  析: B。语境逻辑制约该空表示被小汽车碾过去,应填get。

  2. 过去分词作非限制性定语。

  过去分词可作非限制性定语,因其不属于被修饰名词不可缺少的定语,前面常有逗号与被修饰名词隔开。

  典型考例:

  1. Mr. Smith, ________ of the ________ speech, started to read a novel.

  A. tired; boring B. tiring; bored C. tired; bored D. tiring; boring

  析: A。第一空应填tired,来源于系表结构be tired of;第二空表令人感到枯燥的,应填现在分词boring。

  2. The Olympic Games,________ in 776 B.C., did not include women players until 1912.

  A. first playing B. to be first played C. first played D. to be first playing

  析: C。分析语境逻辑不难发现,该空表"公元前776年第一次被举行",应填过去分词first played作非限制性定语。

  三、 弄清过去分词作表语和定语的位置

  单个过去分词作定语常放在被修饰的名词前边,过去分词短语作定语应放在被修饰的名词后边。过去分词作表语时,应放在连系动词后面,但有时过去分词和连系动词之间有副词隔开。例如:

  This is the wounded soldier. 这就是那个受伤的战士。

  This is the soldier wounded in the battle.这就是在战场上受伤的战士。

  English is widely used all over the world.英语在全世界得到广泛使用。

  This package was properly marked with the name and date.这个包裹被适当地标明了名字和日期。

  典型考例:

  1. Most of the artists ________ to the party were from South Africa.

  A. invited B. to invite C. being invited D. had been invited

  析: A。分析语境逻辑可知,该空表"被邀请",所以应用过去分词短语invited to the party作后置定语。

  2. Prices of daily goods ________ through a computer can be lower than store prices.

  A. are bought B. bought C. been bought D. buying

  析: B。分析语境逻辑可知,该空表"通过电脑购买",goods与buy之间是被动关系,所以应用过去分词短语bought through a computer作后置定语。

  1. I don't know the girl ________ in the snow storm.

  A. to catch B. caught C. catching D. to be catching

  2. C。小女孩是被小汽车撞倒的,所以应用过去分词作后置定语。

  3. C。外宾被艺术家跟随着,应使用过去分词作后置定语,该句可改成:Some artists , following the foreign guests,came out of the hall.

  4. D。"问题"是"被解决的",句末的时间状语决定了此处应用过去分词作后置定语。
