分詞分詞構句是多益必考的文法重點之一,但是常常有同學反應「搞不清楚」、「不知道怎麼用」,你是不是也有類似的疑問呢?就讓這篇文章,帶你全面了解分詞和分詞構句吧!

在這篇文章,你會學到 >>>

1. 分詞的功能和種類2. 分詞當補語、介詞的用法3. 分詞構句的規則和應用

文末還有超擬真多益小測驗,幫助你釐清盲點喔!

一、分詞的種類有哪些?

  • 現在分詞(Ving):writing, doing, cleaning
「be + Ving」表示「進行」
I am/was/will be writing a letter. (我正在/當時在/將會在寫一封信。)
  • 過去分詞(V-ed/PP):written, done, cleaned
「have + V-ed」表示「已經」I’ve written the letter.(我已經把這封信寫完了。)

二、分詞的功能是什麼?

有的分詞呢,可以當成形容詞來用。

  • 表示主動/被動
Ving 為主動,翻譯成「令人…的」,V-ed 為被動,所以翻成「感到…的」。像是 exciting 令人興奮的,excited 感到興奮的。
  • 表示進行/完成
Ving 為進行,翻譯成「正在/即將…的」,V-ed 為完成,所以翻成「已經…的」像是 retired 即將退休的,retired 已經退休的。

有的分詞可以當成補語。補語是「補充意義、增加資訊」的意思。

你剛剛學到的「可作形容詞的分詞」都可以當成補語來使用!That question is confusing. I’m confused. 主詞補語,修飾主詞。I found your question confusing. I found myself confused by your words. 受詞補語,修飾受詞。
  • 其他的分詞也可以當成補語。同樣,Ving 為主動,V-ed 為被動。
The little boy came running when he saw his father. Ving 當主詞補語。I caught Peter kissing his girlfriend. Ving 當受詞補語。I caught Mary kissed by her boyfriend. V-ed 當受詞補語。

還有少數 Ving 可以當成介詞來使用!

  • including 包括、excluding 除外
Everyone likes the movie, excluding/including John.
=Everyone likes the movie, John excluded/included.
  • considering 考慮到;鑑於……
Considering his performance, Tom can make a good teacher.
=His performance considered, Tom can make a good teacher.
  • regarding 關於、concerning 關於
Peter wrote an essay regarding/concerning/about pollution.

三、分詞構句又是什麼?

分詞構句的作用是簡化單句

例如 John had nothing to do, and John felt bored.

可以改成 Having nothing to do, John felt bored.

你發現兩句的差別了嗎?分詞構句使用的規則如下:

1. 主詞相同的話,要省略一個主詞。2. 在被省略主詞後方的動詞,要改成分詞,也就是 Ving 或 V-ed。3. 去掉連接詞(and, so, if 等等)。

來看幾個例句吧!

  • David was tired out, so David went to bed early.
  • → Being tired out, David went to bed early.
  • → Tired out, David went to bed early.
如果動詞是 be 動詞,會改成 being 嘛,這個 being 可以省略、可以不省略,不省略的話更有「因為」的意思喔!
  • His son didn’t work hard, so the old man was very angry.
  • → His son not working hard, the old man was very angry.
這個例句的主詞不同,是獨立分詞構句。獨立分詞構句不需要省略主詞,其他的規則和普通的分詞構句一樣。
  • The teacher was not happy about the student’s performance, so the teacher asked him to try again.
  • → Being not happy about the student’s performance, ……. ✘
  • → Not (being) happy about the student’s performance, ……. ✓
變成否定分詞構句的時候,not 要放在前面喔!
  • We were go picnicking tomorrow if weather permits.
  • → We were go picnicking tomorrow, weather permitting.
  • If I am free, I’ll do it.
  • → If free, I’ll do it.
  • Unless I am tired, I won’t take a rest.
  • → Unless tired, I won’t take a rest.
once、if、unless 後面如果句構是「主詞+be+adj./V-ed」、而且主詞相同的話,也可以做分詞構句的變化。
  • Having done the work, I left early.
如果分詞片語在句首表示「更早發生的動作」,要使用 Having+V-ed 完成式分詞片語。
  • When tired, I’ll take a rest.
  • Though having little time left, I still managed to help David.
when、while、though 也可以做分詞構句喔!
