5 非谓语动词

He didn' t come today, making it necessary for us to find someone to do his work.这个谓语动词被认为是修饰前面的全句,相当于He didn' t come today, which maked it necessary for us to find someone to do his work. 那么为什么不能认为相当于He didn' t come today, and he maked it necessary for us to find someone to do his work.这样逻辑主语就和主句一致了,就是一个比较常规的定语从句。

maked 应为 made !

理解一个句子,不能只限于理解表面结构,要理解这个句子结构表达的逻辑意义。你从逻辑上分析一下,我们必须另找人干他的活,是他没来这件事造成的,还是他这个人造成的?你的理解错误反映了你平时读句子不注意句子表达的逻辑意义,只注意形式了。

这个句子改为定语从句,只能用which made it necessary...即which指代全句,不能用who引导从句。用who为逻辑错误。

He didn' t come today, making it necessary for us to find someone to do his work.

从句意看,现在分词的逻辑主语并不是句子主语 He,这一点是毫无疑问的。

这种结构在英语中十分常见。making 的逻辑主语是前文所述内容。在结构上可以转换为一个非限制性定语从句,也可以理解为结果状语。原句等于:

He didn' t come today, making it necessary for us to find someone to do his work.

He didn' t come today, which made it necessary for us to find someone to do his work.

He didn' t come today, and that made it necessary for us to find someone to do his work.

现在分词作结果状语,其逻辑主语可以是前面整个句子,分词短语表示前文所述事实造成的必然结果。又如:

    The fire lasted nearly two days, leaving nothing valuable.

    大火持续了将近两天,几乎没剩下什么值钱的东西。

    My grandpa fell off the bike, breaking his right arm and leg.

    我爷爷从自行车上掉下来,摔断了右胳膊和右腿。

    It has rained for over ten days, causing the river to rise.

    下了十多天雨,致使河水上涨。
