【答】我跟曹老师的看法有所不同。
我猜测,网友的疑问是:为什么使用Not being focused on,不用Not focusing on。其实,这两个都对。
Not being focused on material goods feels quite natural to me. (正)
Not focusing on material goods feels quite natural to me.(正)
1. 无论使用那种形式,都是动名词作句子的主语。
2. focus 表示“专注于”,及物和不及物都可以。在使用中,主动和被动 focus on 和be focused on 都正确,be focused on 实际是focus oneself on 或focus sth. on 的变式。
3. focus on 和be focused on 的主语都可以是“人”,也都可以是“物”。
所以,以下4个句子都对:
主语是“人”是“物”均可,主动、被动均可。
He focused on the map on the wall.
He was focused on the map on the wall.
His eyes focused on the map on the wall.
His eyes were focused on the map on the wall.

网友误将being focused on写成being focusing on. 现代英语中没有being doing这种形式。
看来网友不熟悉be focused on sth这个句型结构。这个句型表示某人把注意力集中在某件事情上/致力于做某事。这是系表结构,focused为形容词作表语。请注意系表结构不是被动语态。
本句的feels是系词,主语为something,feel意为给人某种感觉,让人感觉...。
The cloth feels very soft and smooth.这块布摸上去很柔软光滑,给人柔软光滑的感觉。
Her skin felt like silk.
not being focused on material goods意为不追求物质享受,是动名词短语作主语。
feels natural to me对我来说感觉很自然,给我很自然的感觉。
如果用not focuing on, 则focus为不及物动词。focus可以是及物动词,也可以是不及物动词。作为不及物动词时,其主语不能是人。而本句的逻辑意思为人不专注于物质享受,逻辑主语是人、人们。因此要用be focused on结构,而不能用focus on结构。
