1、非谓语动词作状语1. 作目的状语只能用不定式不定式作状语表示目的时前面可用 in order 或 so as 以示强调, 也可将不定式或 in order 加不定式置于句首( so as 较少置于句首) 。如:To ensure the safety of gas, the government has checked the citys gas supply system thoroughly. (上海 2007 春) 2 不定式和动词-ing 形式作结果状语不定式表结果,其动作发生在谓语动词之后,往往表示未曾预料到的或令人不快的结果,不定式前常加 only。另外,还可用于 too . to

(四川 2007)4. 作原因状语表示原因时,动词-ing 形式和过去分词通常放在句首,也可放在句末,多用逗号隔开;不定式短语多用于表示情绪的动词、形容词之后。如:Im sorry to have troubled you so much.Driven by a greater demand for vegetables, farmers have built more green houses. (浙江 2007)5. 与 not 连用与否定词 not 连用时多用动词-ing 形式,通常不用过去分词和不定式。Not being tested, all the products will have to lose their market.
