用过去分词充当宾语补足语
过去分词作宾语补足语，表示动作已经完成或结束。能用作宾语补足语的过去分词一般都是及物动词，表示被动意义或已完成的意义，有时候两者兼而有之。作宾语补足语的过去分词与宾语有逻辑上的动宾关系，即宾语是过去分词动作的对象。

The speaker raised her voice to make herself heard.
They found their new bikes stolen.
1. 在feel, find, hear, notice, see, watch等表示感觉和心理状态的动词之后，表示感受到某人或某事被做。

He was disappointed to find his
suggestions turned down.
2. 在get, have, make, keep使役动词之后,
用过去分词作宾语补足语, 表示“使/
让 …” 。
We should keep them informed of what is going on here.
Jane got her bad tooth pulled out at the dentist’s.
3. 表示“意欲；命令”的动词如like, order,
want, wish，可用过去分词作宾语补足语。
I wish these letters (to be) typed as soon as possible.
He didn’t want such question discussed at the meeting.
“with ＋宾语＋过去分词”结构中，过去分词用作介词 with 的宾语补足语。这一结构通常在句中作时间、方式、条件、原因等状语。 The murderer was brought in, with his hands tied behind his back. With water heated, we can see the steam. With the matter settled, we all went home.
4. “with ＋宾语＋过去分词”结构
5. “have + 宾语＋过去分词”的几种含义
在“ have ＋宾语＋过去分词”结构中，过去分词作宾语补足语，have 也可用 get 。这一结构有以下几种含义：
1. 意为“主语请别人做某事”。
He wants to have his eyes examined tomorrow.
2. 意为“主语遭遇、遭受某一不愉快、不测的
事情”。
Be careful, or you'll have your hands hurt.
3. 意为“使完成某事”，事情既可以是别人做
完，也可以由主语参与完成。
He had the walls painted this morning.
过去分词作宾语补足语时，宾语是动作的承受者；现在分词作宾语补足语时宾语是动作的执行者。试比较：
I found him lying on the grass just now.
I found him knocked down by a car.
区分过去分词作宾语补足语与现在分词作宾语补足语
过去分词强调他们之间的被动关系，不定式强调动发生的全过程，现在分词强调它们之间的主动关系。
I saw her come into the classroom.
I saw her coming into the classroom.
I saw her taken out of the classroom.
过去分词与不定式，现在分词作宾语补足语的区别

Untidy dining area in school People drop litter and don’t pick it up Posters and monitors to make sure litter is collected by those who drop it
Dear Sir or Madam,
I hate untidy dining halls and ours is particularly dirty. People seem to treat it as if it were a rubbish area. They leave the leftover food about, on the table or on the floor. This makes the hall look particularly unpleasant for other people who come to eat there.
But I have several solutions. First, make people pick up their own litter. We can do this by asking some of the older students to walk around the hall and watch out for those that drop litter. Second, we can put posters around
Sample writing
The hall asking people to be more thoughtful for others. They should leave the hall as they would wish to find it. Third, we can make those who are found dropping litter stay behind. They can tidy up the hall after all the students have finished their meal.
I hope you find my ideas useful.
Thank you for any help you can give.
Yours sincerely,
Lily
