動詞的ing形式運用廣泛，但有時也會讓你感到困惑。作主語、作賓語、作定語、作狀語、作表語……乍一看去，讓人望而生畏，但只要用心體會、尋根究底、活學活用，你會發(fā)現它讓英語語言變得更加生動。讓我們一起來感受它的奧妙和規(guī)律，巧用動詞ing！

一、重溫課本，用心感悟

我們的英語課本中有很多動詞ing的用法，一起重溫這些句子，想想動詞ing在句中的作用吧！

Tips:

◆動詞ing作主語時，常被當作不可數名詞使用。

◆其后接動詞ing作賓語的動詞有：practice、mind、miss、avoid、finish、keep、consider、suggest、admit、have fun、enjoy等。

◆常見的其他使用動詞ing的固定搭配有：be busy doing…、have difficult/problem/trouble(in) doing、spend…(in) doing…、can’t help doing…、prefer doing…to doing…

◆動詞其后既可接不定式，又可接動詞ing，但意思不同的有：stop、remember、forget、try、go on等。

和“am”一起構成現在進行時態(tài)（be＋Ving）構成謂語

7. There will be many exciting things waiting for you.（人教，Book 5，P. 110）

在with的復合結構中： 作介詞賓語

with＋賓語＋動詞ing，

表示主動、伴隨。

二、走進考題，尋根究底

2017年的各地中考試題對動詞ing的考查形式多樣，讓我們一起探索這些考查點的設計和應答思路吧！

1. The workers are busy ________ windows to the new building these days.（上海市，40小題）

A. fix B. fixed C. fixing D. to fix

［答案與解析］C 考查be busy doing sth.這個固定用法，表示“忙于做某事”。

2. Look! The boys are k______（踢）the ball around in the yard.（安徽省，93小題）

［答案與解析］kicking 考查現在進行時態(tài)的構成（am/is/are+動詞ing）。

3. People in ancient times believed that the plant named dogwood could drive away evil spirits and prevent them from _______（catch）an illness in winter.（福建省，90小題）

［答案與解析］catching 考查介詞賓語為動詞時用其ing形式。

4. My father has fun ________（talk）with old people.（山東省濰坊市，第五大題，6小題）

［答案與解析］talking 考查have fun doing sth.這個固定用法，表示“樂于做某事”。

5. —I called you this morning, but nobody answered.

—I ________ flowers in my garden at that time.（青海省西寧市， 25小題）

A. watered B. was watering C. water D. am watering

［答案與解析］B 考查時態(tài)判斷，根據句意可知，此句中at that time指“早上我給你打電話的時候”，為過去具體的某個時間點，句中應該使用過去進行時態(tài)（was/were+動詞ing）。

6. …Without ________（think）more, the dad and his daughter will often get out of their car and pick the rubbish up along their rubbish collecting trip.（湖北省襄陽市，80小題）

［答案與解析］thinking 考查without的復合結構表伴隨，think與其邏輯主語the dad and his daughter的關系為主動關系，故使用動詞ing形式。
