第6讲Inventors and inventions 语法篇____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________1.掌握动词过去分词的用法和功能；2.可以纯熟运用非谓语中的动词的过去分词。
一. 概述：分词分为如今分词和过去分词。

(一). 分词的作用：1、作定语（1）单个分词作定语，分词前置。
如：The sleeping boy is my son.The excited people rushed into the building.A lost opportunity never returns.He is a retired worker.（2）分词短语作定语，分词后置；分词修饰不定代词something等要后置；个别分词如give，left等作定语也后置。
如：The girl standing under the tree is my niece.The building built last year is our library.This is the question given.There is nothing interesting.（3）过去分词作定语与其修饰的词是被动关系，相当于一个被动语态的定语从句。

高中英语 Unit3 《Inventors and inventions》文本素材--Gramma
Unit 3 Inventors and inventions ---Grammar:动词-ed形式作定语动词-ed形式作表语动词-ed形式作宾语补足语一、动词-ed形式作定语过去分词作定语往往与被修饰的词靠得很近，渐渐地成为一个复合词。
这种分词叫分词形容词 (the Participle Adjective), 实际上相当于一个单纯的形容词, 除表示“完成〞的动作之外, 还表示“被动〞的意义。
如：spoken English (英语口语)；iced beer (冰冻啤酒)；cooked food (熟食);fried chips (炸土豆条);但要注意不及物动词的过去分词常表示“完成〞的动作, 而不表示“被动〞的意义。
如: boiled water(开水); fallen leaves(落叶) ; the risen sun(升起的太阳)等。
1. The tall man is a returned student．高个子的那个人是个归国留学生。
2. My parents are both retired teachers．我的父母都是退休教师。
(1)前置定语单个的动词-ed形式,一般放在被修饰的名词的前面, 作前置定语。
The excited people rushed into building.激动的人们冲进大楼。
(=the people who were excited)Lost time can never be found again．虚度的时光, 无法挽回。
(=time which is lost)(2)后置定语①少数单个动词的-ed形式, 如left等, 只能作后置定语。
Everything used should be marked．所有用过的东西应该做好标记。
② 动词-ed形式短语作定语时, 通常要放在被修饰的名词的后面, 在意思上相当于一个定语从句。
及物动词的过去分词作定语用来表示被动,可改为带被动语态的定语从句;不及物动词的过去分词(仅限于单个过去分词,且不能后置)那么表示完成,可改为带有完成时态的定语从句。

All really big discoveries are the result of thought.” 他认为一个人应当具有好奇心，他最著名的一句话 是：“偶尔离开平路去寻求困境。当你这么做的时 候，你一定会发现你从未见过的东西。跟踪下去， 不断探索，不知不觉中，你就会发现某种值得思考 的东西占据着你的头脑。所有真正伟大的发现都是 思考的结果。”
