Language points Para1: …a graduate majoring in physics at a state university. majoring in...,a present participle, acts as a post-modifier, modifying graduate and meaning specializing in or doing physics at collage. As a student, you can take a minor course in addition to your major.
Para 2: Philip drank a lot of wine while having supper with a few friends. When a participle clause acts as an adverbial in a sentence, it can take a corresponding conjunction, such as while, when, if, unless, etc. Hence we have here while having supper…in these cases, the participle clause shares the same subject with the main clause and therefore the sentence can be rewritten as: Philip drank a lot of wine while he was having supper with a few friends.
Para6: they just need polishing… When an “-ing” form is used as the object of such verbs as need, demand, deserve, etc. it carries the meaning of passive voice. Need polishing is equal to need to be polished. We could also say: The front gate needs/wants/requires mending. Back
