非谓语 动词being...结构的语法功能及用法说明

 

 

being 既可以是谓语动词,也可以是非谓语动词(传统语法中所谓的现在分词或动名词)。作为谓语动词,其用法比较简单,主要用于构成进行时态(含被动语态的进行时态);作为非谓语动词,其用法则比较复杂,可用于引出短语构成主语、宾语、宾语补足语、定语、状语等。

 

一、being 用作谓语动词

1. being 为助动词时的用法

当 being 为助动词时,用作谓语动词动词的 being 主要与过去分词连用,构成被动语态。如:

I'm always being criticized. 我总是挨批。

He is being interviewed now. 他现在正在接受面试。

He is being met at the station tonight. 今晚有人去车站迎接他。

2. being 为连系动词时的用法

当 being 为连系动词时,用作谓语动词动词的 being 主要与形容词连用,表示临时特征或暂时现象。如:

You’re being stupid. 你真傻。

You are not being very polite. 你可是不大客气呀。

Your brother is being very annoying this evening. 你兄弟今晚很烦人。
