例句精讲

1. In 1995, Clueless, the award-winning film based on Jane Austen's novel Emma, was released.

1995年，《无影无踪》公映，这部获奖影片就是根据简·奥斯汀的小说《爱玛》改编的。

【巧解句构】这个句子运用了award-winning复合形容词和过去分词短语based on Jane Austen's novel Emma来作film的定语，分词短语意思上当于which/that was based on...这样一个定语从句。

【要点剖析】分词作定语的时候很多，有的单独作定语：

This is a rather complicated problem.

这是一个相当复杂的问题。

有时分词还可以构成合成词作定语：

Chairman Mao lived in a simply-furnished room.

毛主席住在一个陈设简单的房间里。

分词短语作定语一般置于所修饰的名(代)词后面，相当于一个定语从句。

Suddenly there appeared a young woman dressed (who was dressed) in green.

突然出现了一个穿绿色衣服的女青年。

【拓展延伸】1)to be done，being done和done三种形式作定语可表达不同时间概念。如：

The houses being built are for the teachers.(正在被建造)

The house built last year are for the teachers.(已建造完成)

The houses to be built next month are for the teachers.(即将建造)
