Language study
1.Do you find it funny to see someone sliding on a banana skin, bumping into someone else round a corner, or falling down a hole in the road
it 在此句中是形式宾语, to see…才是find的宾语.当动词的不定式做句子 的宾语,同时,有一个形容词同宾语在一起时,我们常用it做先行宾语.
我觉得他这个人很难了解.
eg. I find it difficult to understand him.
Do you consider it wise to tell them about it
你觉得告诉他们明智吗
本句的sliding, bumping, falling为动词-ing的形式,用作宾语补足语.
动词的-ing形式主要用于以下两类动词后构成宾语补足语.
a. 表示感觉和状态的动词:see, hear, feel, smell, watch, find, notice, look at, listen to等.
eg. Can you smell something burning
b. 表示“指使”等意义的动词:have, set, keep, get, catch, leave 等.
你闻到什么东西烧焦的气味了吗
eg. This set them thinking a lot.
这让他们想了许多.
动词的-ing形式还可作定语.
a changing room
=a room for changing clothes
更衣室
(动名词作定语)
a. 动名词作定语,用以说明该名词的用途;现在分词作定语则表示它所修饰的动作有主谓关系.
a waiting taxi
=a taxi that is waiting
一辆正在等人的出租车
(现在分词作定语)
b. 现在分词单独作定语时,通常位于所修饰名词的前面;现在分词短语作定语位于名词的后面.
eg.
eg. He is a promising young man.
他是一个很有培养前途的青年.
Do you know the woman sitting at the end of the room
你认识坐在房间后面的那位妇女吗
c. 现在分词,不定式作定语的区别是, 现在分词表示动作正在进行,不定式表示动作将要发生.
eg. the building being built
正在修建的建筑物
the building to be built
将要修建的建筑物

5.That was the problem facing Charlie Chaplin in one of his most famous films The Gold Rush.
facing Charlie Chaplin 在本句用作定语，修饰the problem ，动词的形式构成的短语作定语时要放在所修饰词的后面。这里the problem facing Charlie Chaplin = the problem which faced Charlie Chaplin。
