解析
本题考查“with + 名词/代词 + 动词 -ing 形式”这一结构在句子中的功能。解题思路是需要对每个选项所描述的句子成分功能有清晰的认识,然后分析“with + 名词/代词 + 动词 -ing 形式”结构是否符合该功能。
- 选项A:句子的主语通常是句子所描述动作的执行者,一般是名词、代词等。而“with + 名词/代词 + 动词 -ing 形式”结构并不是句子动作的执行者,所以它不能作主语。例如,在句子 “With the sun shining brightly, we went for a walk.” 中,“we” 是主语,“went for a walk” 是谓语,“With the sun shining brightly” 并不是句子动作的执行者,所以该选项错误。
- 选项B:句子的主要谓语是表示主语动作或状态的动词或动词短语。“with + 名词/代词 + 动词 -ing 形式”结构不是动词或动词短语,不能表达主语的主要动作或状态,所以它不能作主要谓语。例如,在 “She came into the room with a book in her hand.” 中,“came into” 是主要谓语,“with a book in her hand” 不是主要谓语,该选项错误。
- 选项C:“with + 名词/代词 + 动词 -ing 形式”结构常用来作状语,表达伴随、方式、原因或时间等。
- 伴随:如 “He sat there with his eyes looking at the sky.”,“with his eyes looking at the sky” 表示伴随 “sat” 这个动作同时发生的情况。
- 方式:例如 “The girl left the room with her head held high.”,“with her head held high” 描述了女孩离开房间的方式。
- 原因:像 “With the weather getting worse, we had to stay at home.”,“With the weather getting worse” 说明了 “had to stay at home” 的原因。
- 时间:“With the years passing by, he became more and more experienced.”,“With the years passing by” 表示时间的推移。所以该选项正确。
- 选项D:句子的宾语是动作的承受者,通常是名词、代词等。“with + 名词/代词 + 动词 -ing 形式”结构不是动作的承受者,所以它不能作宾语。例如,在 “I like reading books.” 中,“books” 是宾语,而 “with + 名词/代词 + 动词 -ing 形式” 结构不符合宾语的特征,该选项错误。
