PARTICIPLES: Level B
| The participles are: Present participles (playing, running, etc.), Past participles (played, written, etc.) and Perfect participles (having written, etc.). Present and past participles can be used as adjectives. The present participles (-ing) describes what somebody or something is (it answers the question 'What kind?'). The past participles (-ed) describes how somebody feels (it answers the question 'How do you feel?'). e.g. It's a very tiring job. (What kind of job? Tiring.) He's very tired. (How does he feel? Tired.) Participles can also be used: · to express time e.g. After doing/having done her homework, she watched TV. Having done her homework, she watched TV. (= After she had done her homework, she watched TV.) He broke his arm (while) playing hockey. (=He broke his arm while he was playing hockey.) · to express reason e.g. Being late, Adam took a taxi. (=Because he was late, Adam took a taxi.) Having spent all her money, Pam asked for a loan. (=Because she had spent all her money, Pam asked for a loan.) · instead of a relative pronoun and full verb e.g. The man standing at the door is my boss. (=The man who is standing at the door is my boss.) The information presented in the article was invaluable. (=The information which was presented in the article was invaluable.) · instead of the past simple in narratives when we describe actions happening immediately one after the other e.g. Seeing the shadow, he screamed. (=He saw the shadow and he screamed.) · to avoid repeating the past continuous in the same sentence e.g. She was climbing up a ladder carrying a bucket. (=She was climbing up a ladder and she was carrying a bucket.) |
