Check Exx. 1 and 2 in Learning about Language with the class. Step ⅡLead in Ask the students to find out the examples of the past participle as the adverbial in the play:

Sample sentences:

1. An expert in phonetics, convinced that the quality of a person’s English decides his/her position in society. P28

2. But, sir, (proudly) once educated to speak properly, that girl could pass herself off in three months as a duchess at an ambassador’s garden party. P30

Explanation:

The past participle as the adverbial is a very important grammar, and it can indicate time, condition, reason, and way. We can add when / while / if or other conjunctions before the past participle in order to make the meaning more clearly.

Step ⅢGrammar(Explanation&Practice) (一)时间状语（相当于一个时间状语从句）

当从山顶看的时候，我们的城镇非常美丽。

Seen from the top of the hill, our city looks beautiful.

(= When it is seen from the top of the hill, our town looks beautiful. ) Heated,ice can be changed into water. (= When it is heated, ice can be changed into water. ) (二)作原因状语。（相当于as, since, because引导的原因状语从句, 这类状语多放在句子前半部分。）

Moved by what she said ，we couldn’t help crying .

（= As we are moved by what she said，we couldn't help crying) (三)作条件状语。相当于if, unless引导的条件状语从句。

Given more time, we could do it better. (=If we were given more time, we could do it better.) (四)作让步状语。相当于though, although,even if 引导的让步状语从句。

Even if invited, I will not take part in the party.

=Even if I am invited, I will not take part in the party.

即使被邀请，我也不会参加聚会。

(五)作方式或伴随状语。作状语表示方式或伴随情况时,过去分词可用并列句代替。

莫言站在那儿被记者围住。

Moyan stood there , surrounded by many reporters. （=Moyan stood there , and he was surrounded by many reporters.）

注意：

(1) 过去分词作状语，其逻辑主语须与句子的主语保持一致，如果句子的主语和分词是主动关系,用________，（现在分词）句子的主语和分词是被动关系，用________。（过去分词）

_______ from the hill, you will find the city looks like a big garden. （Seeing）

_____from the hill, the city looks like a big garden. （Seen）

1. 从上面看,体育场好像一个鸟巢。

____ from the top, the stadium looks like a bird nest.

A. Seeing

B. Seen 2. 从太空看, 宇航员看不到长城。

____ from the space, the astronaut can not discover the Great Wall.

A. Seeing

B. Seen

(2) 如果分词的逻辑主语与所修饰的句子的主语不一致，就要有自己的逻辑主语，这种

结构称为独立主格结构。

Their homework finished,the children went out to play football.

(3)

有些过去分词（短语）源于系表结构，作状语时不表动作而表状态。

be dressed in

be lost in沉浸在be devoted to 致力于be supposed to 应该be located in位于be buried in专心于be compared with be faced with

be seated

be prepared for be determined to do

be tired of 厌烦

be absorbed in

be born in be occupied in忙于

be surprised at e.g:

Dressed in white, she looks more beautiful.( dress) She sat there, lost in thought.

(4) 若分词的动作先于主句谓语动词的动作发生则可使用having been+过去分词做状语。

________many times, he finally understood it .

A. Told

B. Telling

C. Having told

D. Having been told

Summary 分词作状语答题记忆口诀

分词作状语，主语是问题。

逗号前后两动作，共用一主语。

主语找出后，再来判关系。

主动-ing,被动用-ed。

Having been done 表先后，

千万要牢记。
