關(guān)閉窗口 （四）動(dòng)名詞作賓語，還是現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語？
首先，我們看兩個(gè)句子：
1. Though it was raining hard, they went on working in the fields.
2. Though it was raining hard, they continued working in the fields.
句1，關(guān)于working in the fields是現(xiàn)在分詞，還是動(dòng)名詞的問題，一直爭論不休。所以有人給出了一個(gè)最好的辦法，就是不要管它是什么，只需知道go on doing 即可。表面看來這是一個(gè)不錯(cuò)的主意，但實(shí)際上是混淆了現(xiàn)在分詞和動(dòng)名詞的區(qū)別。從語言研究角度觀察，這顯然不夠嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)，我們并不滿意。其實(shí)，只要按照它們不同的語法作用進(jìn)行分析。即可判斷出它是現(xiàn)在分詞，還是動(dòng)名詞。
我們知道，go on這個(gè)詞組中，go是不及物動(dòng)詞，on是副詞，表示“繼續(xù)”的含義（We use on to say that someone is continuing to do something. ）例如：
They walked on in silence for a while. 他們繼續(xù)默默無語地走了一會(huì)兒。
If the examination shows your company enjoys basically good health, read on. 要是審查表明你們公司的運(yùn)營狀況基本良好，請(qǐng)繼續(xù)往下讀。
He happened to be in
既然go是不及物動(dòng)詞，on是副詞，那么go on后面的“動(dòng)詞-ing形式”肯定不是“賓語”，而是“狀語”表示伴隨或方式。既然是狀語，那么，working in the fields就是現(xiàn)在分詞。
句2，continued是及物動(dòng)詞，后面需要賓語。因此，working in the fields是動(dòng)名詞作賓語。
以下例句是現(xiàn)在分詞用在不及物的謂語動(dòng)詞之后，作伴隨或方式狀語：
The boy came running into the room, out of breath. 男孩跑著進(jìn)了房間，氣喘噓噓。（running為現(xiàn)在分詞，作came的方式狀語。即：“跑著進(jìn)來”）
The visitor from
They also express their feelings using unspoken language through keeping physical distance, actions or posture.他們還通過使用無聲語言，借助保持距離、動(dòng)作和姿勢(shì)，來表達(dá)感情。（using unspoken language為方式狀語）
If you stand holding your arms across your chest, you may be protecting yourself. 假如你把雙臂交叉放在胸前站著，那么你有可能在保護(hù)自己。（holding your arms across your chest為伴隨狀語）
He must be able to use the foreign language forgetting all about his own. 他一定要做到使用外語時(shí)，忘掉本族語。（forgetting all about his own為方式狀語）
The children ran out of the room laughing and talking merrily. 孩子們愉快地笑著談著跑出教室。（laughing and talking merrily為方式狀語）
