2018年MBA考试英语：分词

 　分词是动词的三种非限定形式之一, 包括现在分词和过去分词两种。分词可以在句中作状语及定语。

　　(一)现在分词与过去分词的区别

　　现在分词与过去分词的区别主要表现在语态和时间概念上。在语态上,现在分词(除被动式外)表示主动意思, 过去分词表示被动意思。在时间上, 现在分词表示动作正在进行, 过去分词则表示动作已完成。

　　developing countries(发展中国家)

　　developed countries(发达国家)

　　the touching tale(动人的传说)

　　the touched audince(受感动的观众)

　　(二)现在分词的用法

　　现在分词作定语时多置于它所修饰的名词前:

　　这是一个紧迫的问题。

　　2. 现在分词用作状语
