關閉窗口 動名詞和現在分詞，因為語法書都有專門的講解，所以有關細節問題本文不再贅述。本文擬從以下幾個方面進行探討：
1. 動名詞作定語和現在分詞作定語
2. 動名詞作表語和現在分詞作表語
3. 動名詞作表語和進行時態的區別
4. 動名詞作賓語和現在分詞作狀語
5. 動名詞的復合結構作賓語和現在分詞作賓補
（一）動名詞作定語和現在分詞作定語
動名詞和現在分詞，都可以作前置修飾語（premodifier）修飾名詞。同樣是“動詞-ing形式”作定語，被修飾語和修飾語之間的關系是否一樣？ “動詞-ing形式”作定語時，被修飾語和它的關系可能是“目的或用途關系”，也可能是“主謂關系”， 這兩種不同的修飾關系，是區分動名詞還是現在分詞的試金石。如果是前者，那么就是動名詞作定語；如果是后者，那么就是現在分詞作定語。
【動名詞作定語】
動名詞作定語，說明動名詞和被修飾語是“目的或用途的關系”。所以，我們可以用for doing，used for doing，或者which is used for doing來置換這個動名詞，放在被修飾語之后作定語。例如：
a swimming pool
①→ a pool for swimming
②→ a pool used for swimming
③→ a pool with the purpose of swimming
限于篇幅，以下詞組僅用第①種情況轉換：
a walking stick → a stick for walking
a sleeping car → a car for sleeping
a waiting room → a room for waiting
a swimming pool → a pool for swimming
a washing machine → a machine for washing clothes
a writing desk → a desk for writing
a reading room→ a room for reading
a bathing cap→ a cap for bathing
a changing room→ a room for changing clothes
a sitting room→ a room for sitting
a watering can→ a can for watering flowers
a guessing game→ a game for guessing words
an ironing board→ a board for ironing clothes
a collecting tin→ a tin for collecting money
a hiding place→ a place for hiding
a racing bicycle→ a bicycle for racing
an operating table→ a table for operating
building materials → materials for building
a diving board→ a board for diving
reading materials → materials for reading
a closing speech→ a speech for closing a meeting
working hours→ hours (time) for working
a smoking room→ a room for smoking
