(九)关于there be 的非谓语形式
there be非谓语形式可在句中作主语、宾语、状语和定语
1.作动词宾语时,通常用there to be结构,而不用there being。能这样用的及物动词为:expect,like,mean,intend,want,prefer,hate等,如:
We don't want there to be any comrades lagging behind.我们不希望有任何同志掉队。 They hate there to be long queues everywhere..他们不愿意处处都要排长队。 We have no objection to there being a meeting here.我们并不反对在这里开会。 2.作状语多用there being结构,但若置于介词for之后要用there to be
There being nobody else at hand, I had to do by myself.由于附近没有人,我只得独自干了。(原因状语)
It’s too early for there to be anybody up.太早了,还不会有人起床。(作程度状语) There having been no rain for a long time,the ground was very dry. 因为好长时间没下雨了,地面非常干燥。(原因状语) 3.作主语时两种结构都可以,但如是用for引导则要用there to be.

1.作宾语时的区别
①I can’t stand _____ with Jane in the same office. She just refuses______ talking while she works. A. working , stopping B. to work, stopping C. working, to stop stop
【解析】答案为C。stand在这里表示“忍受”,后面要求用动名词作宾语,而“refuse”
要用不定式作宾语。
②Isn't it time you got down to______ the papers? A. mark B. be marked
【解析】答案为D。 “got down to”中的“to”是介词因而要用动名词作宾语,而动名词
“marking”与其逻辑主语“you”是主动关系。

A. that, to be improved C. where, improving
B. which , to be improved D. when, improving
C. being marked
D.
marking

【解析】答案为A。因为“公路状况需要改善”,“need”后接“improving”或“to be improved”
都可以。后面的从句应是“problem”的同位语,应用“that”引导。

B. interesting
C. interestingly
D. interestedly
【解析】答案为A。“sound”是连系动词,应使用形容词化的分词作表语。C、D 备选项
都是副词,应排除。“interest”的现在分词表示主语所具有的特征,意思是“令人感兴趣的”;过去分词表示主语所处的状态,意思是“感兴趣的”。
②Please remain A. seating
;the winner of the prize will be announced soon. B. seated
C. to seat
D. to be seated

③A cook will be immediately fired if he was found ________in kitchen. A. smoke
B. smoking
C. to smoke
D. smoked
【解析】答案为B。“find”后接现在分词作主语补足语。此句中“smoking” 是主语
“he”的补足语, 所以称为主语补足语。表示主动的正在发生的事。根据“immediately”可判断出“厨师当场被发现在厨房吸烟会被立即开除”。
④To learn English well, we should find opportunities to hear English A. speak
B. speaking
C. spoken
as much as we can. D. to speak
【解析】答案为C。此处考查“hear+宾语+do/doing/done”的结构。因为“English”是“被
说”,故用过去分词(spoken)作宾补,表示被动。
4.作后置定语时的区别
①If there is a lot of work _______, I’m happy to just keep on until it is finished. A. to do
B. to be doing
C. done
D. doing
【解析】答案为A。“work”和“do”虽然存在逻辑上的动宾关系,但主语“I”和“do”
存在逻辑上的主谓关系,此时用“to do”做后置定语。
②When I handed the report to John, he said that George was the person ______. A. to send B. for sending it
C. to send it to
D. for sending it to
【解析】答案为C。该题中须用不定式短语作后置定语,排除B 和D选项;答案A项意
为“送乔治这个人走”,显然不符合题意。而应该是将报告送给“乔治这个人”才符合题意。“it”指这个报告。后面的介词“to”不能少。
③—The last one ___________ pays the meal. —Agreed! A. arrived
B. arrives
C. to arrive
D. arriving
【解析】答案为C。“the last/next/first...” 后常接不定式作定语。 ④The Chinese are proud of the 29th Olympic Games ______in Beijing in 2008. A. hold
B. holding
C. held
D. to be held
【解析】答案为D。非谓语动词作后置定语的三种情况:the meeting to be held意为“即
将召开的会议”;the meeting held意为“已经召开的会议”;the meeting being held是“正在召开的会议”的意思。很显然当时(2006年)“the 29th Olympic Games”还没有召开,故选D项。
⑤Reading is an experience quite different from watching TV; there are pictures ______ in your
第 14页 共 47页
mind instead of before your eyes. A. to form
B. form
C. forming
D. having formed
【解析】答案为C。根据本题提供的语境,“看书时有画面在大脑中形成。”而句中有谓语“there are ”,
所以本应填非谓语动词,可排除B项。又因为“看书的同时就会形成”,排除A、
D选项,故
选C项作定语。
⑥At the beginning of class, the noise of desks ____ could be heard outside the classroom. A. opened and closed C. being opened and closed
B. to be opened and closed D. to open and close
【解析】答案为C。参看上面的例④。

B. having been completed D. being completed
【解析】答案为C。参看上面例④的简析。 ⑧—Can those A. seat
at the back of the classroom hear me??—No problem. B. sit
C. seated
D. sat
【解析】答案为C。“sit”为不及物动词,可用“sitting”作定语;“seat”为及物动词,常与反
身代词连用或用“be seated”形式。这里“seat”与“those”构成逻辑上的被动关系,故用其过去分词作定语=those who are seated…。
5.作状语时的区别
①He hurried to the booking office only _____ that all the tickets has been sold out. A. to be told B. to tell
C. told
D. telling
【解析】答案为A。“only”后接不定式表示出人意料的结果。

内容为油价上涨后的必然结果“达到??记录” 。
