非谓语动词作状语时,它的逻辑主语应该是句子的主语
但有时非谓语动词带有 自己的主语,从而在结构上与主语不发生关系,我们称之为独立主格结构〔Absolute Construction〕
其实,所谓“独立主格结构〞也并非真正独立,它还是一种附属的结构
一、非谓语动词独立主格结构在独立主格结构中,非谓语动词和它前面的名词或代词存在着逻辑上的主谓关系
Such an able man to help you,you will surely succeed sooner or later
有这么能干的人来帮你,你迟早一定会成功的
〔such an able man 和 to help you 之间存在着主谓关系〕=Since such an able man will help you, you will surely succeed sooner or later
He seating himself at the desk, his mother began to tell him a story
他在书桌旁坐好后,他母亲开始给他讲故事
〔seating himself at the desk 拥有了自己的逻辑主语 he,注意是“主格〞〕=When he seated himself at the desk, his mother began to tell him a story
The key to the bike lost, he had to walk to school
由于丢了自行车钥匙,他只好步行去学校
〔lost 的逻辑主语是 the key,lost也可以用完成式 having been lost〕= Because the key to the bike had been lost, he had to walk to school
