三、动词ing形式作状语的注意事项
1.逻辑主语
动词ing形式作状语,其逻辑主语一般就是句子的主语,它们之间是一种逻辑上的主谓关系。
Being ill, he didn't attend the wedding.
因为生病,他没有出席婚礼。(he与being ill 是逻辑上的主谓关系→He was ill.)
2.独立结构
有时现在分词有自己的逻辑主语,这时其逻辑主语相对于句子的主语来说是独立的,因此又叫独立主格结构,构成形式是"名词/代词+v.ing"。
She being ill, her mother had to look after her at home.
她生病了,母亲不得不在家照顾她。
The meeting being over, we went to play football.
会议一结束,我们就去踢足球了。
