一. 快捷识记
过去分词作定语
过去分词作定语有前置和后置两种情况。 1、前置定语 单个的过去分词作定语,通常放在被修饰的名词之前,表示被动和完成意义。 a类:被动意义: an honored guest 一位受尊敬的客人 the injured workers are now being taken good care of in the hospital. 受伤的工人现正在医院受到良好的照料。 b类:完成意义: a retired teacher 一位退休的教师 they are cleaning the fallen leaves in the yard. 他们正在打扫院子里的落叶。 2、后置定语 过去分词短语作定语时,通常放在被修饰的名词之后,它的作用相当于一个定语从句。如: this will be the best novel of its kind ever written (=that has ever been written). 这将是这类小说中写得最好的。 who were the so-called guests invited (=who had been invited) to your party last night? 昨晚被邀请参加你的晚会的那些所谓的客人是谁呀?二.随堂练习
