Presentation The –ing form as the Subject and Object

1. 动词-ing形式的构成: 在动词词尾加-ing 构成

2. 否定形式: not+ -ing 构成

3. 动词-ing形式不能单独作谓语

4. 动词-ing形式在句中可以作主语、宾语、表语、定语、宾语补足语、状语等。

一、动词-ing形式作主语

1.

表示经常的、习惯性的动作或状态, 谓语动词通常用单数。如：

(1) Walking is a good form of exercise for both young and old.

无论对年轻人和老年人来讲, 走路是一种很好的锻炼。

(2) Watching news on TV has become a habit for me.

在电视上看新闻已经成了我的一种习惯。

Exercises: 1. ______________________takes about 16 hours.

乘火车去杭州要16个小时。

2. ________________________is impolite in our country.

2. -ing形式作主语时常后置, 此时须用it作形式主语, 用形容词或名词作表语。

牢记以下短语：

It’s no use doing sth.

做…是没用的

It’s no good doing sth.

做…是不好的

It’s fun doing sth.
