语法填空中如何识别谓语动词和非谓语动词
一、概念
在句子中担任谓语的动词,叫做谓语动词;顾名思义,在句子中不能作谓语,而是担
任主语、宾语、表语、定语和状语等的动词,叫做非谓语动词。
We should serve the people heart and soul.(谓语)
I am reading a novel.(谓语)
She found English hard to learn.(状语)
Seeing is believing.(主语和表语)
The results obtained are quite satisfactory.(定语)
Please stop speaking.(宾语)
二、识别方法
1.利用并列连词
[ 典 例 ] (2017· 全 国 卷 Ⅱ )It took three years to complete and was built using an
interesting method.This included digging up the road , ________(lay) the track and then
building a strong roof over the top.
[分析] laying and 前后为三个并列成分,根据“digging”“building”可知用 laying,这
三个动名词短语作 included 的宾语。
2.利用固定结构
[典例] (2018·全国卷Ⅲ)I quickly lower myself,ducking my head to avoid ________
(look) directly into his eyes so he doesn't feel challenged.
[分析] looking 动词 avoid 后用动词的ing 形式。
[点拨] 复习备考时,要积累使用非谓语动词的结构,这样能起到事半功倍的效果。
3.分析句子成分
[典例 1] (2019·全国卷Ⅰ) In recent years some Inuit people in Nunavut ________
(report) increases in bear sightings around human settlements, leading to a belief that
populations are increasing.
[分析] have reported 分析句子成分可知该句为复合句,主句的主语为 some Inuit
people,空格处作主句的谓语,根据句中时间状语“In recent years”可知,应用现在完成时。
故填 have reported。
[点拨] 若句子中没有谓语,或者有并列连词连接两个谓语,则需要填动词的谓语形
式时,此时应根据语境判断动词的时态、语态,以及使谓语动词与主语保持单复数一致。
[典例 2] (2019·全国卷Ⅲ) On the last day of our weeklong stay, we were invited to
attend a private concert on a beautiful farm on the North Shore under the stars,________
(listen) to musicians and meeting interesting locals.
[分析] listening 考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知, 句子中已经出现了谓语动
词,且句子中没有连词,故所填词为非谓语动词形式,且与其逻辑主语 we 之间为主动关系,
故用现在分词形式作伴随状语,故填 listening。此题也可根据后面 meeting 可知此处所填词
与 meeting 之间构成并列的伴随状语。
[点拨] 作伴随状语,通常用分词,若与逻辑主语是主动关系,用现在分词;若是被
动关系,用过去分词。
[典例 3] (2016·全国卷Ⅲ)Truly elegant chopsticks might be made of gold and
silver with Chinese characters. Skilled workers also combine various hardwoods and metal
________(create) special designs.
[分析] to create 分析句子成分可知,skilled workers 为主语;combine 作谓语动词,
various hardwoods and metal 作宾语,此处表示 combine ...and ...的目的,故用不定式作目
的状语,应填 to create。
[点拨] 若句子中已经有了谓语动词,且此空不作并列谓语,则需要填动词的非谓语
形式。动词的非谓语形式包括动名词、现在分词、过去分词和不定式。此时考生应判断非
谓语动词在句中作什么成分。作目的状语或在形容词后作状语,一般用不定式。
