Past participles used as the object complement 过去分词作宾语补足语

什么是宾语补足语? 英语中有些及物动词,除有一个宾语以外,还要有一个补充说明的部分,才能使句子的意义完整。这个补充说明部分即是宾语补足语。通常,这类及物动词有: make , consider, cause ,see , find , call , get, have, let, etc. Ex. We think him clever. What he said made me angry. We consider the answer correct. Everyone calls him Tom. (宾语) (宾补)

宾语补足语的表现形式: 带有宾语补足语的一般句型为: 某些及物动词(如make等) 直接宾语(名词或代词) 宾语补足语 + +

宾语补足语的9种表示法: His father named him Doming. They painted their house white. You mustn’t force him to lend his money to you. Nobody noticed him enter the room. 4. We saw her entering the room. (名词) (形容词) (不定式) (不定式短语) (现在分词或其短语)

5. We must get the work finished by 10 o’clock. 6. We take English as a useful tool for research work. 7. Whenever you may go, you will find him at work. 8. Let the fresh air in. 9. The plant has its own name. You cannot call it what you will. ( 过去分词) (用as引出) (介词短语) (副词) (从句)

用过去分词充当宾语补足语 1. 过去分词作宾语补足语,表示其动作已经 完成或结束。能用宾语补足语的过去分词 一般都是及物动词,表示被动意义或已完 成的意义,有时候两者兼而有之。作宾语 补足语的过去分词与宾语有逻辑上的动宾 关系,即宾语是过去分词动作的对象。 E.g. After waking up, I found everyone gone. The speaker raised her voice to make herself heard. They found their new bikes stolen.

过去分词不仅可以作动词宾语的补足语,还可以作介词宾语的补足语: E.g. The murderer was brought in, with his hands tied behind his back, With the homework finished, he was allowed to watch the football match.

过去分词用在表示状态的动词 keep ,leave 等的后面。 They kept the door locked for a long time. Don’t leave the windows broken like this all the time. 2. 过去分词用在使役动词 have, make 的后面。 (1)注意”have +宾语+ 过去分词”的两种用法: ①表示让某人做某事,如: I have had my bike repaired . The villagers had many trees planted just then.

②表示“遭遇到某种不幸;受到打击”等。 如: My elder sister had her wallet stolen on a bus last month. The old man had his wrist broken in the accident. (2)”make + 宾语+过去分词”, 在这种结构中,过去分词的动词必须是表示结果含义的,如: I raised my voice to make myself heard. They managed to make themselves understood using very simple English.

3.过去分词用在感官动词watch ,notice, see, hear, listen to, feel, find 等的后面 当我们到学校时,我们看见门锁着。 When we got to school, we saw the door locked. 我们可以听到大雨点敲打窗户的声音。 We can hear the windows beaten by the heavy rain drops.

4.过去分词用在want, wish, like, expect, order等表示“希望,愿望,命令”这一类动词的后面作宾语补足语。 老师不想此刻讨论这个问题。 The teacher wouldn’t like the problem discussed at the moment.

我想要这套衣服照他自己的尺寸做。 I want the suit made to his own measure. 我父母希望在下班回来之前聚会的一切都准备好。 My parents expected everything prepared for the party before they came back from work.

5.过去分词用在“wish+宾语+宾补”这一结构中,过去分词与宾语之间是动宾关系。 小偷被带进来了,双手被绑在后面。 The thief was brought in with his hands tied behind his back. 周围种了许多色彩鲜艳的花,他的房子看上去就像一座漂亮的花园。 With many brightly-coloured flowers planted around the building, his house looks like a beautiful garden.
