形容词 -ed 和-ing

问题描述:

形容词 -ed 和-ing
we couldn't stop watching the video because it was very( )(excite)
we didn't believe Linda's story because it was too ( )(amaze)
形容人和物的区别么,以前只知道be动词后用ing形式的,不知道现在还能否这样想?

exciting;amazing
你给的两个题都用ing形式,
形容人用ed,例如:She is surprised.
形容物用ing,例如:The movie is interesting.
感觉类的动词往往是使动词.
如excite,interest,satisfy,puzzle,upset,disgust,bore等.
上面的词,要说成“使/令……兴奋/感兴趣/满意/迷惑/烦恼/恶心/乏味”.
所以,“这个问题使我迷惑”,不能说成
The problem made me puzzle.
而只用说
The problem puzzled me.
-ing型的基本意义是“使/令……怎样的”,-ed表示“感到……的”.
把握了使动词的根本含义,再分辨由它变来的两种分词,就顺理成章了.
-ing形容词,表示“使人……的”,也就是在动词原形意义后加个“的”字.
-ed形容词,表示“感到……的”.
试依以上原理,准确分辨下面几对句子.
The boy is upset.
The boy is upsetting.
The students are satisfying.
The students are satisfied.
The teacher is boring.
The teacher is bored.
细心的人可能会发现,上面几对句子都是拿人来做主语.也就是两种形容词都可以用来描述人.如果拿物来做主语,就只有一个能够合格.
√The speech is boring.
×The speech is bored.
