三、英语独立主格结构的用法 独立主格结构主要表示谓语动词发生的时间、原因、条件或伴随情况等，相当于一个状语从句或并列句。 1. 用作时间状语 The work done (=After the work had been done), we went home. 工作完成后，我们就回家了。 2. 用作条件状语 Weather permitting (=If weather permits), they will go on an outing to the beach tomorrow. 如果天气允许的话，他们将在明天组织一次海滨小游。 3. 用作原因状语 An important lecture to be given tomorrow (=As an important lecture will be given tomorrow), the professor has to stay up late into the night. 因为明天要发表一个重要的演讲，教授不得不熬夜到很晚。 4. 用作伴随状语 He was lying on the grass, his hands crossed under his head (=and his hands were crossed under his head).他躺在草地上，两手交叉枕在脑后。 5. 表示补充说明 A hunter came in, his face red with cold (=and his face was red with cold). 一个猎人走了进来，他的脸冻得通红。 We redoubled our efforts, each man working like two. 我们加倍努力，一个人干两个人的活。 注：独立主格结构表示时间、条件或原因时，相当于一个状语从句，一般放在句首，表示原因时还可放在句末；表伴随状况或补充说明时，相当于一个并列句，通常放于句末。
四、使用独立主格结构的几点注意 1. 当状语从句的主语与主句的主语不是指同一个对象时，可用独立主格结构取代状语从句，但不再保留连词。如： After class was over (=Class being over / Class over), the students soon left the classroom.下课后，学生很快离开了课室。 2. 在下列两种情况下，独立主格结构中的being（或having been）不能省略： (1) 独立主格的逻辑主语是代词时。如:It being Sunday, we went to church.因为是星期天，我们去了做礼拜。 (2) 在There being＋名词的结构中。如： There being no bus, we had to go home on foot.因为没有公共汽车，所以我们不得不步行回家。w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m 3. 在“名词（或代词）＋介词短语”构成的独立主格结构中，一般不用形容词性物主代词和冠词。如： Miss Smith entered the classroom, book in hand.史密斯先生走进了课室，手里拿着一本书。 比较with的复合结构：Miss Smith entered the classroom, with a book in his hand. 4. 独立主格结构没有所有格形式。如： The chief-editor arriving, we began the meeting. 主编来了，我们开始开会。 比较动名词复合结构： The chief-editor’s arriving made us very surprised. 5. 独立主格结构作时间或原因状语时，可用完成时，表示该动作发生在谓语之前。如： The listeners having taken their seats, the concert began.听众坐好后，音乐会开始了。 Tom having been late over and over, his boss was very disappointed.由于汤姆一再迟到，他的老板非常失望。
独立主格结构中的非谓语动词用法
独立主格结构的基本形式是“名词或代词+形容词（副词、介词短语、非谓语动词等）”。本文主要归纳“名词或代词+非谓语动词”这一结构的用法。 1. 名词或代词+不定式 其中的不定式通常表示尚未发生或即将要发生的动作。如： Nobody to come tomorrow, we will have to put off the meeting till next week. 如果明天没有人来，我们将把会议推迟到下周。 So many people to help him, he is sure to succeed. 有如此多的人来帮助他，他一定会成功的。 We divided the work, he to dean the window and I to sweep the floor. 我们分了工，他擦窗户，我扫地。 2. 名词或代词+现在分词 其中的现在分词通常表示动作正在进行（或当时正在进行）。如： She ran up to me, her hair flying in the wind. 她向我跑来，秀发在风中飘扬着。 We explored the caves, Peter acting as a guide. 由彼得作向导，我们探查了那些洞穴。 We redoubled our efforts, each man working like two. 我们加倍努力，一个人干两个人的活。 注：有时现在分词不表示进行，而表示一般情况。如： Their room was on the third floor, it’s window overlooking the sports ground. 他们的房间在三层楼上，窗户俯视着操场。 3. 名词或代词+过去分词 其中的过去分词通常表示被动意义。如： Everyone helped, John not excepted. 大家都来帮忙，约翰也不例外。 All our savings gone, we started looking for jobs. 积蓄全部用完了，我们就开始找工作。 This done, they next set to clean the room. 做完这件事之后，他们接下来就开始清理房间。 She gazed, her hands clasped to her breast. 她凝视着，双手叉在胸前。
