  在考研英語閱讀中,長難句的結(jié)構(gòu)分析一直是閱讀理解中一個不容忽視的障礙,盤根錯節(jié)的從句和結(jié)構(gòu)復(fù)雜的非謂語動詞常常把我們搞得暈頭轉(zhuǎn)向,不知所措。其實,由于非謂語動詞短語比起從句來說會使整個句子更為緊湊和簡潔,所以在文章中常常會使用到非謂語動詞短語。非謂語動詞短語的形式包括動名詞、現(xiàn)在分詞、過去分詞、動詞不定式,它們在句子中可以充當不同的句子成分,本文就來談一下如何處理考研英語中分詞作狀語的情況。

  一、表時間,可以和時間狀語從句互換。如:
  Studying in the university, he was very popular among his classmates.=
  When he studied in the university, he was very popular among his classmates.
  Seeing those pictures, she remembered her childhood. =
  When she saw those pictures, she remembered her childhood.

  二、表原因,可以和原因狀語從句互換。如:
  Not knowing her address, I wasn't able to contact her. =
  Because I did not know her address, I wasn't able to contact her.

  三、表條件,可以和條件狀語從句互換。如:
  Walking to work, you will save quite a lot of money.=
  If you walk to work, you will save quite a lot of money.

  四、表讓步,可以和讓步狀語從句互換。如:
  Defeated, he remained a popular boxer. =
  Although he was defeated, he remained a popular boxer.

  五、表方式,如:
  He earns a living driving a truck.
  I'm returning you letter as requested.

  六、表伴隨,如:
  Losing a job is hurting: you don't skip down to the job centre with a song in your heart, delighted at the prospect of doubling your income from the generous state.
  在這個句子中,delighted分詞短語作伴隨狀語,表示去求職中心的狀態(tài)。

  七、表結(jié)果,分詞短語作結(jié)果狀語在考研英語閱讀中經(jīng)常出現(xiàn),并作為因果邏輯關(guān)系的考點出現(xiàn)在題干和選項中,請大家一定要注意非謂語動詞短語的這種語法功能。如:
  The best lawyers made skyscrapers-full of money, tempting ever more students to pile into law schools.
  在這句話中,tempting分詞短語作結(jié)果狀語,表示最好的律師掙錢很多這種現(xiàn)象帶來的結(jié)果是引起更多學(xué)生考法律學(xué)校。題干中的問題是A lot of students take up law as their profession due to,即學(xué)生學(xué)法律專業(yè)的原因是什么,這個問題從上句話中就可以找出答案,是因為經(jīng)濟回報的吸引,即選項the attraction of financial rewards。
  By offering on-trend items at dirt-cheap prices, Cline argues, these brands have hijacked fashion cycles, shaking an industry long accustomed to a seasonal pace.
  在這個句子中,shaking 分詞短語作結(jié)果狀語,表示品牌綁架時尚圈的后果。
  Science and technology would cure all the ills of humanity, leading to lives of fulfillment and opportunity for all.
  在這個句子中,leading分詞短語作結(jié)果狀語,表示科技將治愈人類所有疾病后帶來的結(jié)果。
  八.與邏輯主語構(gòu)成獨立主格,
  Human nature being what it is, most people stick with default settings.
  在這種結(jié)構(gòu)中,需要注意非謂語動詞的主語是其前出現(xiàn)的名詞或名詞短語。Being what it is 的邏輯主語是human nature, 翻譯為人類本性就是這樣。
  在考研英語閱讀中,分詞短語作狀語在句中出現(xiàn)的頻率很大,大家需要注意分辨清分詞短語與主句的邏輯關(guān)系,這樣我們才能更好地理清文章結(jié)構(gòu),進而在選擇答案時能夠做到有的放矢。
