2．作定语的-ing形式如是一个短语，则应放在被修饰词的后面。
The bottle containing vinegar should be sent to the laboratory.装着醋的那个瓶子应送到实验室去。
They lived in a house facing south.
他们住在一所朝南的房子里。
The book being discussed a lot will be published next month.人们谈论很多的那本书下一个月将出版。
3．有些情况下，动词的-ing形式不能用来作定语，必须使用定语从句。
①作定语的-ing形式表示的动作要与主句谓语的动作同时发生，如两者不能同时发生的话，则需使用定语从句。
【误】The professor coming here yesterday will give us
a lecture.
【正】The professor who came here yesterday will give
us a lecture.昨天来的教授将要给我们作一个讲座。
②-ing形式的完成式一般只用来作状语，不作定语。
【误】The temple having been destroyed by the
earthquake will be rebuilt soon.
【正】The temple which has been destroyed by the
earthquake will be rebuilt soon.被地震毁坏的庙宇很快就要修建了。
间吗？F．动词的-ing形式作状语
动词的-ing形式可以作状语，修饰动词，在句中表示时间、原因、结果、条件、让步、行为方式或伴随情况等。-ing形式作时间、原因、条件、让步状语时多位于句首；作结果、伴随情况状语时常位于句末。
1．表示时间，相当于一个时间状语从句。

If you go straight down the road...）
Working
hard at your lessons, you will succeed.如果你努力学习，就一定能成功。（=

5．表示让步，相当于一个让步状语从句。

三、动词的-ing形式的逻辑主语
A．作主语的-ing形式
-ing形式作主语时，其逻辑主语对于谈话双方是不言而喻的。
Reading
aloud is very helpful.朗读是很有好处的。（Reading
aloud的逻辑主语是泛指任何人，因而无需表达出来）
提示：
如果作主语的-ing形式需要自己的逻辑主语时，一般用物主代词或名词所有格（即名词后加's）。
His
father's falling ill worried him greatly.他父亲生病使他很着急。（his
father是falling ill的逻辑主语）
Your
coming to work with us will be a great encouragement to us.你来和我们一道工作，对我们是很大的鼓舞。（you是coming
to work with us的逻辑主语）
B．作表语的-ing形式
-ing形式作表语时，其逻辑主语往往是句子中的主语，但作表语的-ing形式也可带有自己的逻辑主语。
What
worries me most is Julia's staying too late every night.我担心的是她天天晚上熬夜熬得太迟。（staying
too late every night的逻辑主语是Julia）
The main
problem is your not having practiced a lot.主要的问题是你缺乏大量的练习。（not
having practiced a lot的逻辑主语是you）
C．作定语的-ing形式
-ing形式作定语时，其逻辑主语就是它修饰的名词。
an
interesting book一本有意思的书= a book that interests its
readers
a
running stream一条奔流的小溪= a stream that is running
如果-ing形式的逻辑主语是动作的承受者，就要用-ing形式的被动式。
The
meeting being held in Beijing now is of great importance.正在北京召开的会议非常重要。（逻辑主语the
meeting和“举行”之间的关系是被动的，所以用being
held
D．作宾语的-ing形式
-ing形式作宾语时，其逻辑主语常是句子中的主语。如要明确动作的执行者，也可以在-ing形式前加上名词或代词表示逻辑主语。
I can't
imagine John's giving a speech in front of so many people.我不能想像约翰会在这么多人前面发言。(John是giving
a speech的逻辑主语)
He was
awakened by someone knocking at the door.
他被某人的敲门声吵醒了。(someone是knocking
at the door的逻辑主语)
The boss
understood himhis wanting to leave.老板明白他为什么要离职。（“他”是wanting
to leave逻辑主语）
比较：
He
insisted on doing it himself.他坚持要自己做。（doing
it的逻辑主语是句子的主语“他”）
He
insisted on my doing it.他坚持要我做。（doing
it的逻辑主语是“我”）
Would
you mind opening the window请你把窗子打开好吗？（opening
the window的逻辑主语是“你”）
Would
you mind my opening the window你介意我把窗子打开吗？（opening
the window的逻辑主语是“我”）
E．作宾语补足语的-ing形式
动词-ing形式作逻辑主语时，它的逻辑主语就是它前面的宾语。
We often
hear her singing this song.我们经常听见她唱这首歌。（singing
this song的逻辑主语是“她”）
We often
hear this song (being) sung.我们经常听见这首歌被人唱。（逻辑主语“this
song”和宾语补足语“唱”的关系是被动，所以用-ing形式的被动式或-ed分词。）
