一、现在分词作状语的用法
现在分词(短语)在句中作状语来修饰谓语动词或整个句子,表示动作发生的时间、原因、条件、结果、方式、让步或伴随状况。
1.作时间状语(相当于一个时间状语从句)。
Walking in the park, she saw an old friend.
=When/While (she was) walking in the park, she saw an old friend.
当她在公园里散步时,她看到了她的一个老朋友。
[名师点津] 当表示正在进行的动作时,可直接在分词前面加上when/while,此时也可理解为状语从句的省略。
2.作原因状语(一般可转换成由as或becau引导的原因状语从句)
Being ill, he couldn’t go to school.
=As he was ill, he couldn’t go to school.
因为生病了,他无法去上学。
3.作条件状语(一般放在句首,其前可以加if, unless等连词)
Working hard, you’ll make great progress.
=If you work hard, you’ll make great progress.
如果你努力工作,你将取得很大进步。
4.作结果状语
现在分词作结果状语时,通常放在句末,中间用逗号隔开,表示一种顺其自然、意料之中的结果。
The plate dropped from her hands, breaking into pieces.
盘子从她手中掉了下来,摔成了碎片。
[名师点津] 现在分词作结果状语,是随着谓语动词的发生而产生的自然结果,其逻辑主语往往是前面整个句子所描述的情况,前面有时候可以加thus。而不定式作结果状语时常表示出乎意料的结果,有时前面可以加only。试比较:
He was caught in the rain, thus making himlf catch a cold.
被雨淋后他感冒了。
I hurried to school, only to find it was Sunday.
我匆忙赶到学校,结果发现是星期天。
5.作让步、方式和伴随状语
现在分词作让步、方式和伴随状语时,说明动作发生的背景和情况。作伴随状语时,表示分词的动作和主句的动作同时发生,此时它可转换成并列句。
Mary sat by the window of the classroom, reading a book.
=Mary sat by the window of the classroom and was reading a book.
玛丽坐在教室的窗边读一本书。
[名师点津] 为强调动词ing形式表达的意义,可在其前加上各种连词。例如,加上when, while,强调与谓语动词同时发生;加上before, after,强调动作先后发生;加上thus,强调结果;加上(al)though,强调让步等。
Though knowing all this, they made me pay for the damage.
尽管他们了解这一切,但还是让我赔偿损失。

二、现在分词作状语注意事项
1.现在分词的时态

Walking in the street, I met an old friend of mine.
我正在大街上行走时,遇到了一位老朋友。(walking和谓语动词met同时发生)
(2)当现在分词的动作先发生,而谓语动词的动作后发生时,用分词的完成式。

他写完信后就把它寄了出去。(having finished是先发生的,went是后发生的)

⑤Seeing (e) nobody at home, he decided to leave them a note.
2.现在分词的语态
使用现在分词的主动式还是被动式,这主要取决于现在分词和句子主语之间的关系。句子的主语就是分词的逻辑主语。
