as if=(as though)意为“似乎是,好像是”,引导方式状语从句。表示与当时状况不相符的情况,故使用的是虚拟语气。

(2)可引导方式状语从句。
(3)as if还可用于省略句中。如果as if引导的从句是“主语+系动词”结构,可省略主语和系动词,这样as if后就只剩下名词、不定式、形容词(短语)、介词短语或分词。(4)as if从句的语气及时态
①as if从句用陈述语气的情况
当说话者认为句子所述的是真实的或极有可能发生或存在的事实时,从句用陈述语气。
②as if从句用虚拟语气的情况
当说话者认为句子所述的是不真实的或极不可能发生或存在的情况时,从句用虚拟语气,其形式如下:
a.如果从句表示与现在事实相反,谓语动词用一般过去时。
b.如果从句表示与过去事实相反,谓语动词用had+过去分词。
c.如果从句表示与将来事实相反,谓语动词用would/could/might+动词原形。It sounds as though you had a good time.

Important words& expressions
Period 3 单元语法
单元语法复习非谓语动词精讲精练课件动词-ing形式作表语,定语
和宾语补足语动词的-ing形式作表语、定语和宾语补足语
动词的-ing形式是动词的一种非谓语形式,由动词原形加-ing构成,包括现在分词和动名词。可以在句中用作主语、表语、宾语、宾语补足语、状语和定语。下面来看一下动词的-ing形式在句中作表语、定语和宾语补足语的用法。
一、动词 -ing 形式作表语
1.动名词作表语时句子主语常是表示无生命的事物的名词或 what 引导的名词性从句。作表语的动名词与主语通常是对等的关系,表示主语的内容,主语和表语的位置可互换。
His job is teaching English.
他的工作是教英语。
The task of this class is practising the idioms.
这节课的任务是练习这些习惯用语。2.现在分词作表语表示主语的某种性质或状态。
What you said is really inspiring.
你所说的真鼓舞人心。
The situation is quite encouraging.形势很令人鼓舞。
用-ing形式改写下列句子
(1)Building socialism is our task.
→Our task is .
(2)People are encouraged by his words.
→His words are .
(3)We must improve our method for working.
→We must improve our .
(4)We watched that she crossed the street.
→We watched her .
(5)He heard that a song was being sung.
→He heard a song .building socialism encouraging working method crossing the street being sung 二、动词-ing 形式作定语
现在分词及其短语可以在句中作定语,其作用相当于一个定语从句,其动作和谓语动作同时发生,与其修饰词之间是主动关系,也就是说现在分词的动作就是它修饰的那个词的动作。
1.现在分词作定语的位置
现在分词作定语时通常放在它所修饰的名词前面,现在分词短语作定语通常放在它所修饰的名词后面,可以转换成定语从句。
They lived in a room facing the street.
= They lived in a room that faces the street.
他们住在一间面朝街的房子。
The man standing there is Peter’s father.
= The man who is standing there is Peter’s
father. 站在那儿的那个人是彼得的父亲。Anybody swimming in this river will be fined.
= Anybody who is swimming in this river
will be fined.
在这条河里游泳的任何一个人都会被罚款。
-ing形式短语也可以用作非限制定语, 相当于一个非限制性定语从句, 这时, 它与句子其他部分用逗号分开。His brother, working as a teacher, lives
in Beijing. = His brother, who is working
as a teacher, lives in Beijing.
他那个当教师的哥哥住在北京。
The apple tree, swaying gently in the
breeze, had a good crop of fruit.
= The apple tree, which was swaying
gently in the breeze, had a good crop
of fruit. 那棵苹果树硕果累累, 在微风中轻轻摇曳。如果现在分词修饰由some/any/no+thing/body/one所构成的不定代词或指示代词those时,分词放在这些被修饰词的后面。
注意:动词-ing形式的动名词也可作定语,它表示“用作……的”,强调用途与目的,而现在分词作定语强调的是动作。
a waiting room(=a room for waiting)候诊室,候车室
a sleeping child(=a child who is sleeping)熟睡的孩子
She went on board the train leaving for Shanghai.
=She went on board the train which was leaving for Shanghai.她乘坐去上海的火车。
2.现在分词作定语时与谓语动词的时间关系
现在分词表示主动和进行,因此用现在分词作定时 ,其表示的动作是与谓语动作同时或基本同时发生的。
The boy standing by the gate is Tom.
站在门口的男孩子是汤姆。
3.如果一个及物动词的现在分词作定语,既要表达进行,又要表达被动,则用现在分词的被动语态。
The meeting being held is very important.
正在召开的会议很重要。三、动词-ing形式作宾语补足语
现在分词作宾补,强调动作正在进行。v.-ing 形式主要用于下列几类动词中,后接宾语然后加上动词-ing,构成复合宾语结构,由其充当宾语补足语。
1. 1) 动词-ing形式作宾语补足语常放在宾语后面, 表示一个正在进行的主动性的动作, 强调一个过程或一种状态。When we returned to the school, we found a stranger standing at the entrance.
当我们回到学校时, 发现一个陌生人站在大门口。
We found the snake eating the eggs.
我们发现蛇正在吃鸡蛋。
I found a bag lying on the ground.
我发现地板上放着一个包。
The boss kept the workers working the whole night.
那老板让工人整夜地工作。2) 当主句转换为被动结构时, 原来作
宾语补足语的动词-ing形式便转换为
主语补足语。如:
They found the result very satisfying.
= The result is found very satisfying.
这个结果很令人满意。
They heard him singing in the next room.
= He was heard singing in the next room.
有人听到他在隔壁房间唱歌。
We mustn’t keep them waiting.
= They mustn’t be kept waiting.
千万不能让他们等。2. 能用-ing形式作宾语补足语的几类动词:
表示感觉和心理状态的动词, 常见的有see,
hear, feel, smell, find, notice, observe, look at,
listen to等。如:
We saw a light burning in the window.
I felt somebody patting me on the shoulder.
Can you smell anything burning?
As he spoke, he observed everybody looking at
him curiously.
Listen to the birds singing.
I didn’t notice him waiting.2) 表示指使意义的动词, 常见的有have, set,
keep, get, catch, leave等。如:
I won’t have you doing that.
This set me thinking.
I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.
I can’t get the clock going again.
You won’t catch me doing that again.
你看吧, 我决不会做那种事了。
3). see, hear, feel, watch等动词之后用-ing形式
和动词不定式作宾语补足语的区别:
① 前者表示动作正在进行, 而后者表示
(或强调)动作从开始到结束的全过程。如:
We passed by the classmates and saw
the teacher making the experiment.
我们走过教室, 看见老师在做实验。
(只在走过教室的刹那间, 看见老师正在做实验)We sat an hour and watched the teacher
make the experiment.
我们坐了一个小时, 看老师做实验。
(一个小时之内一直在看老师作实验)
② 如果宾语补足语是短暂性动词, 动词不定式
短语表示一次动作, 而-ing形式则表示反复动作。
e.g. We heard the door slam.
We heard the door slamming. (反复动作)(一次动作)4).在有些动词(如 regard,describe,accept,think of, quote 等)之后,可由 as 引出动词的-ing形式作宾补。
They regarded the contract as being invalid.
他们认为合同无效。
They described the child as being very clever.
他们描述这孩子非常聪明。【链接训练】

C.is to laugh D.laughed
【解析】 考查动名词的被动语态作表语。句意为:多数人最痛恨的就是在公共场合被嘲笑。【答案】A③The salesman scolded the girl caught ________ and let her off.
A.stealing B.to be stealing
C.to have stolen D.to steal
【解析】 考查动词-ing形式作宾语补足语。catch sb. doing sth. 抓住/发现某人正在做某事。caught stealing是the girl的后置定语。【答案】A
④Something ________ the tap should be removed so that the water can come through quickly.
A.blocking B.blocked
C.be blocked D.having blocked
【解析】 something与block之间是主动关系,故排除B、C两项;又现在分词修饰something等不定代词时,分词放在这些修饰词的后面,故正确答案为A。D项时态不对。【答案】A ⑤It was so cold that they had the fire _____ all night.
A.to burn B.burn
C.burning D.burned
【解析】have...doing“让…一直在做…”。在此现在分词作宾语补足语,补充说明宾语的情况. 【答案】C2013年高考英语【上海卷】35. Sophia got an e-mail

【解析】35. 答案:A解析:题干的意思是:“索菲亚收
到了一封向她索要信用卡账号的电子邮件”。分析句子
结构,______ her credit card account number做后置定
语,修饰an e-mail。ask for和an e-mail构成主动关系,所以
用现在分词形式,相当于定语从句which asked for her
credit card account number。高考试题赏析2. 2013年高考英语【山东卷】25. The room is empty
except for a bookshelf _____ in one corner.
A. standing B. to stand C. stands D. stood
【解析】25. A。本题考查的是非谓语动词。_____
in one corner在句中做后置定语,修饰bookshelf,
语态根据其逻辑主语a bookshelf和stand之间的逻辑
关系来断定,二者之间为主谓关系,即主动关系,
应用现在分词;而to stand表将来或表目的,与句
意矛盾;C项stands为谓语,此句中已经有谓语
is empty,所以可排除;而D项stood为过去分词,
表示被动或完成;用在此句中显然也不符合要求。
【句意】房间里除了站在角落里的一个书架之外
空空如也。 3. 2013年高考英语【辽宁卷】28. Laura was away in Paris for over a week. When she got home, there was a pile of mail ______ for her.
A. waited B. to wait C. waiting D. was waiting
【解析】28. C。本题考查非谓语动词的用法。在there be句型中,wait只可以做非谓语,故先排除D。wait做后置定语,修饰a pile of mail,构成主动关系,再排除A。动词不定式to wait表示将要,现在分词waiting表示正在进行,根据句意,“有一堆邮件正在等着她”。故选C。
【句意】劳拉离开去巴黎一个多星期。当她到家的时候,有一大堆的邮件在等着她呢!Grammar【考点警示】
1.现在分词作表语表明主语的性质和特征。
The story is very moving.
2.动名词作表语表示抽象的一般性行为。

句式结构
对文章而言,结构好比“骨架”,作为具体内容的句子就是文章的“血肉”。有了好的结构,还要有丰满的血肉之躯,这就要求我们要写出好句子。好句子的标准应是:用词准确、逻辑清晰、简洁明了、可读性强。在写书面表达时,为了增强句子表现力,我们就要学会复合句在写作中的应用,复合句可以增强句子之间的逻辑关系,从而使句子变得紧凑。
另外,还要学会用不同的表达方式丰富句式,如强调句、倒装句等,还要学会简单句与复合句交替使用、分词及with复合结构等的使用。1.简单句与复合句结合。
It seemed they were lost.I went up to see them and asked how I could help.(先短后长,给人抑扬顿挫之感) (2012·北京)
2.多种表达形式。
I read the announcement of the summer camp that you have posted on the Internet.(定语从句在主从复合句中的运用 (2012·全国)
It was the announcement of the summer camp that I read on the Internet.(强调句型)3.尝试分词的使用。
I came to the school library,hoping to kill time.(分词短语的使用比使用并列句更凸显作者的语言功底) (2012·湖南)
4.更多地使用短语使文章增光添彩。
I cannot bear it.可以表达为:I cannot put up with it. (2012·江苏)
He changed his own fate,and he changed the history of American.可以更好地表达为:
He changed not only his own fate but also the history of American. (2012·湖南)1.体会英语书面表达中的高级表达
(1)Sitting on the train,I thought my dad would be very happy when he saw the present.
(2)When we get there,we will visit the elderly in their rooms in groups,presenting them with flowers and self-made cards to show our respect and love.
(3)Li Hua was at the bus stop,waiting for Bus No.601 to go to school.
(4)As the snatcher was running past him,the old man quickly picked up his umbrella and put it between the snatcher's legs.
