第二节动词过去分词
一、过去分词的定义
过去分词是动词的另一种非限定形式。
过去分词兼有动词、副词和形容词的特征,可以带宾语或受状语修饰。过去分词和宾语或状语一起构成过去分词短语。
二、过去分词的基本形式
过去分词的基本形式是“动词十-ed”,但也可以有不规则的形式。不规则动词的过去分词没有统一的构成规则,要逐个记忆。过去分词一般表示完成的和被动的动作,只有一种形式。
三、过去分词的句法功能
过去分词在句子中可以作定语、表语、宾语补足语或状语。
1.作定语

作定语用的过去分词如果是单词,一般放在被修饰的词的前面;过去分词短语作定语,则放在被修饰的词的后面。如:
There are many fallen leaves on the ground.地上有许多落叶。
This is a book written by a peasant.这是一本农民写的书。
又如:
smoked ham熏火腿 boiled water开水 steamed roll花卷
spoken English口头英语 oppresd people被压迫的人民
2. 作表语
过去分词作表语,多表示主语所处的状态。
农村搞笑段子剧本I was plead at the news.听了这消息我很高兴。
The door remained locked.门仍然锁着。
He looked very excited商铺出租广告.他显得很激动。
过去分词作表语用,相当于形容词,最常见有:delighted,disappointed, discouraged,drunk,amud,astonished,hurt,interested,crowded,tired,satisfied,plead,surprid,worried,excited,married,puzzled,upt等。
有些过去分词用作表语时,构成的谓语很接近被动结构。这两种结构的主要差别参见有关部分。
3.作宾语补足语
过去分词可以在e,hear,notice,watch,keep,find,get,have,feel等动词后与名词(代词)构成复合宾语。如:
I often hear the song sung in English.我常听人用英语唱这首歌。
He’s going to have his hair cut.他准备去理发。
She found the door clod.她发觉那门是关着的。
I must get my bike repaired.我必须请人修理自行车。
He was trying to make himlf understood.他努力想让别人听懂他的话。
4.作状语
过去分词短语常用作状语,修饰谓语,说明动作发生的背景或情况。这类状语大多数放在句子前部(主语前面),也有少数可以放在句子后部(谓语后面),或者插在中间(主语后面)。如:
Inspired by the spirit of the Party’s Sixteenth Congress ,(=As we were inspired by) we work even harder.在党的十六大的精神鼓舞下,我们更加努力工作。
烟英文
The Professor came in, followed by a group of young people.教授走进来,后面跟着一群年轻人。
Mr. Green,deeply moved,thanked us again and again.格林先生深为感动,一再向我们表示感谢。
间或一个单独的过去分词也可以这样用作状语。如:
Heated , water changes into steam.水加热时就会变成水蒸气。
任小艾She turned away , disappointed.她走了,心里很失望。
过去分词短语作状语可以表示:
①相当于一个原因状语从句
Inspired by her example(= As they were inspired by…),the League members worked even harder,在她的榜样鼓舞下,共青团员们干得更起劲了。
The children soon fell asleep,exhausted by the journey. 由于旅途劳累,孩子们很快就睡着了。
②相当于一个时间状语从句
Seen from the hill(= When the park is en from the hill…),the park looks very beautiful.从山上看这个公园非常漂亮。
Once published, this dictionary will be very popular!一旦出版,这本字典将会受到欢迎。
③假设的情况,相当于一个条件状语从句
United(=If/When we are united), we stand; divided(=If/指甲看健康When we divided), we fall.团结则存,分裂则亡。(此句也可表示时间)
Given more time,we could do it much better.多给点时间,我们会做得更好些。
④相当于一个让步状语从句
Beaten by the opposite team ( Though they were beaten by...), the players were not discouraged and practiced even harder.虽然被对方打败,但队员们没有泄气,更加刻苦训练。
这类状语多数放在句子前面,个别放在主谓之间。
⑤伴随情况(这种用法没有与之相当的状语从句可以代替)
He came back,utterly exhausted. 他回来时,疲惫不堪。
The woman scientist entered the lab, followed by her assistants.位女科学家走进实验室,后面跟着她的助手们。
注:
过去分词短语作状语时,它的逻辑主语一般必须与句子的主语一致。但有时它也可以有自己独立的逻辑主语,这种结构称为独立(主格)结构。多数情况下它表示一种伴随动作或情况。如:
The boy rushed Into the classroom, his face covered with sweat( = … and his face was covered … )那男孩跑进教室,满脸是汗。
All things considered, your article is of greater value than hers.各方面考虑进去,你的文章比她的文章更有价值。
四、过去分词的时态和语态的用法
过去分词一般表示完成和被动的动作,只有一种形式。来自及物动词的过去分词表示被动的意义,来自不及物动词的过去分词则表示主动、完成的意义(作形容词用的过去分词除外)。如:
the exploited class被剥削阶级 an unknown hero一位无名英雄
the machine ud in the workshop车间用的机器 the developed countries发达国家
the escaped criminal逃跑了的犯人 fallen leaves落叶
the rin sun升起了的太阳 returned students归国留学生
I heard the door opened.我听见门被打开了。
I want some boiled water(water that has been boiled)我想要一些开水某些带有持续意义的动词,如know, love, speak等的过去分词往往只有被动意义,没有完成意义。如:
He is our beloved leader. 他是我们敬爱的领袖。
We are making a study of spoken English.我们正在学习口语。
