一、过去分词作定语
1.意义:及物动词的过去分词作定语往往表示被动和完成;不及物动词的过去分词作定语不表示被动,只表示完成。
(1)表示被动和完成
a polluted river一条被污染的河流
the watered flowers浇过水的花
(2)只表示完成,不表示被动
fallen leaves落叶
the risen sun升起的太阳
2.位置:单个的过去分词作定语时,通常放在被修饰词的前面;过去分词短语作定语时,通常放在被修饰词的后面,其作用相当于一个定语从句。
The student dressed in white is my daughter.
=The student who is dressed in white is my daughter.
穿白色衣服的那个学生是我女儿。
注意:过去分词作定语和现在分词作定语的区别:
(1)语态不同:现在分词表示主动;过去分词表示被动。
