分詞是動詞的三種非限定形式之一, 包括現在分詞和過去分詞兩種。分詞可以在句中作狀語及定語。
(一)現在分詞與過去分詞的區別
現在分詞與過去分詞的區別主要表現在語態和時間概念上。在語態上,現在分詞(除被動式外)表示主動意思, 過去分詞表示被動意思。在時間上, 現在分詞表示動作正在進行, 過去分詞則表示動作已完成。
developing countries(發展中國家)
developed countries(發達國家)
the touching tale(動人的傳說)
the touched audince(受感動的觀眾)
(二)現在分詞的用法
現在分詞可在句中作定語和狀語。
1. 作定語
現在分詞作定語時多置于它所修飾的名詞前:
This is a pressing question.
這是一個緊迫的問題。
He asked an embarrassing question.
他提了一個令人難堪的問題。
現在分詞亦可置于它所修飾的名詞之后:
There were no soldiers drilling.
現在分詞短語一般皆置于其修飾的名詞之后:
A little child learning to walk often falls.
The men working here are all from the rural areas.
2. 現在分詞用作狀語
現在分詞及其短語從表意的角度看, 也可用作狀語, 表示時間、原因、結果、條件、讓步、方式或伴隨情況等。其動作可能發生在謂語動詞之前或之后, 也可能與謂語動的動作同時發生。
(1)表示時間
Climbing to the top of the tower, we saw a magnificent view.
He went out shutting the door behind him.
強調與謂語動詞的動作同時發生時, 現在分詞之前可用連詞when或while:
When leaving the airport, they waved again and agin to us.
While flying over the Channel, the pilot saw what he thought to be a meteorite.
(2)表示原因
Being sick, I stayed at home.

(3)表示條件

Turning to the right, you will find a path leading to his cottage.
(4)表示讓步

(5)表示結果

(6)表示方式或伴隨情況
He ran up to her breathing heavily.

(三)過去分詞的作用
1. 作定語
過去分詞可以作定語。如果是單詞,常置于其所修飾的名詞之前,例如:
