    非谓语动词是指在句子中不是谓语的动词,《2019年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试大纲》附录语法项目表中对非谓语动词列了三项:动词不定式、动名词和分词(包括现在分词和过去分词)。恰当的应用非谓语动词对简单句和复合句进行转换,不仅句型多样,句子活泼,而且读起来结构紧凑,言简意明。相反,英语书面表达中出现过多的简单句会让人觉得单调乏味,句子与句子之间的关系显得松散;而文章中过多地出现复合句又显得累赘,读起来费劲。2019年全国高考英语书面表达第五档(21~25分)要求为:应用较多的语法结构和词汇有效地使用词句间的连接成分,使全文结构紧凑从而达到预期的写作目的,这足以看出非谓语动词在书面表达中的必要性。下面笔者就三个方面探讨如何使用非谓语动词。

    一、非谓语动词转换简单句

    写作时,可以利用非谓语动词对两个简单句进行转换,使其成为较高级的表达方式。转换时可采用三步法。

    第一步:写出两个简单句。

    (1)I found it difficult to solve the problem.

    (2)I turned to the teacher for help.

    第二步:让句(2)作主句,用非谓语动词改写句(1)。

    第三步:句(1)表示原因,其动词found与主语I之间为主谓关系,故用现在分词短语作原因状语。

    Finding it difficult to solve the problem, I turned to the teacher for help.

    其他几个转换的例子如下。

    1. (1)It is produced by our teachers and our senior students.

    (2)It reflects years of hard work.

    →Produced by our teachers and our senior students, it reflects years of hard work.(2018年高考英语全国II卷)

    2. (1)Our school is equipped with two playgrounds as well as a splendid stadium.

    (2)Our school offers us an opportunity to do a variety of sports.

    →Equipped with two playgrounds as well as a splendid stadium, our school offers us an opportunity to do a variety of sports.(2018年高考英语全国III卷)

    3. (1)We hold the tea bags in our hands.

    (2)We took a picture to memorize the unforgettable day.

    →Holding the tea bags in our hands, we took a picture to memorize the unforgettable day.

    二、非谓语动词转换复合句

    用非谓语动词转换复合句比转换简单句要容易一些,因为需转换的一般是从句部分,这时只需要判断用何种非谓语动词,再把握好时态和语态即可,所以只需两步。

    第一步:写出复合句。

    After we had practiced playing basketball for almost two months, we strongly desired to be the winner.

    第二步:把after引导的时间状语从句转换为非谓语动词,practice与we之间为主谓关系,且表示完成,故用现在分词的完成时作状语。

    →Having practiced playing basketball for almost two months, we strongly desired to be the winner.

    其他几个转换的例子如下。

    1.看到一辆车朝她而来,我伸出手把她拉了回来。

    When I saw a car running towards her, I reached my hand out and pulled her back.

    →Seeing a car running towards her, I reached my hand out and pulled her back.(现在分词作状语)

    2.这里曾有一家化肥厂,位于城市的南边。它每天释放出大量有毒气体,污染环境。

    There was a large factory, which produced fertilizer. Every day it gave out a lot of poisonous gas, which polluted the environment.

    →There was a large factory, which produced fertilizer. Every day it gave out a lot of poisonous gas, polluting the environment.

    简析:“原句”中分别由which引导两个定语从句,重复且单调,将第二个定语从句转换为现在分词短语作状语后,不僅表达多样,而且言简意明。

    3.由于老师的帮助,我的英语进步很大。因为我的英语进步很大,我确信我能考上更好的大学。

    Because my teacher helps me, my English has greatly improved. Because my English has greatly improved, Im sure I will go to a better university.

    →With my teacher helping me, my English has greatly improved. Because my English has greatly improved, Im sure I will go to a better university.

    简析:“原句”两处重复出现由because引导的从句,读起来很别扭。换用“with+现在分词的复合结构”后,读起来给人的感觉大不一样。

    三、非谓语动词转换短文(根据一般表达写出该短文的高级表达)

    假设你是无为三中的学生李华,得知某英文报社招聘兼职记者,请按下列要点给报社写一封自荐信。内容要点为:1.表示感兴趣;2.说明优势:知识面、英语水平、合作精神、相关经历;3.希望得到回复。

    注意:1.100词左右。

    2.可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。

    一般表达为:

    Dear Sir or Madam,

    Im a student from Wuwei No.3 Middle School. Im quite interested in the news that you want some part-time reporters.

    I think I am the right person for the job. As a student, Ive read different books. Furthermore, I am good at English and do well in speaking. Besides, Im easy to get along with and like working together with others. Above all, I once attended a course about the skills in broadcasting. So Im sure I can do the job well if I get the position.

    I am looking forward to your reply soon.

    Yours sincerely,

    Li Hua

    以上作文很少或没有使用非谓语动词,只能算是一篇普通作文,以下作文较多地使用了非谓语动词,效果明显不一样。

    高级表达为:

    Dear Sir or Madam,

    Im a student from Wuwei No.3 Middle School. I show great interest in the news that you want some part-time reporters.

    I think I am surely qualified for the job. As a student, Ive read varieties of books, making it easy for me to cope with different unexpected situations. Furthermore, I have a good command of English and do particularly well in speaking. Besides, not only am I outgoing but also I have a strong sense of cooperation.Above all, I once attended a course about the skills in broadcasting, where Ive received some professional training. So Im sure I can do the job well if I get the position.

    I am looking forward to your favorable reply soon.

    Yours sincerely,

    Li Hua
