being done主要用在某些動詞（如see, hear, watch, feel, find, discover, imagine, keep, like, notice 等）后作賓語補(bǔ)足語，表示一個正在進(jìn)行的被動動作。如：

I saw him being taken away by the police. 我看到他正被警察帶走。

He often came to watch the boats being loaded and unloaded. 他常常到這里來看輪船裝貨卸貨。

She found herself being warmly welcomed everywhere. 她發(fā)現(xiàn)自己到處受到熱烈的歡迎。

I woke up to hear the bedroom door being opened slowly. 我醒過來，聽見臥室的門慢慢地被推開。

有時也用于介詞with, without的賓語后作賓語補(bǔ)足語。如：

They debated for hours without a decision being taken. 他們爭論了好幾個小時，也沒作出決定。

5. 用作狀語

being done 用作狀語是一個比較重要的用法，主要用于句首表示原因，有時也表示其他關(guān)系（如時間等）。如：

Being unemployed, he hasn’t got much money. 由于他沒有工作，他沒有多少錢。

Being well taken care of, she recovered quickly. 由于受到很好的照顧，她的身體恢復(fù)得很快。

Being given a chance, she immediately jumped at it. 當(dāng)給她這個機(jī)會的時候，她立刻就抓住了。

注：有時 being 可帶有自己的邏輯主語(構(gòu)成獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu))。如：

The question being settled, we went home. 問題解決之后，我們就回家了。
