四、-ED分词在复合结构中
Don’t get your schedule changed; stay with us in this class. (83年考题)
Peter had his gas and electricity turned on when he moved into his new apartment last month. (85年副题)
He kept his mouth shut and stayed where he was.(他闭口不言，呆在原地不动。)
They are talking about the experiment made in the new lab.
五、独立结构
如果-ED分词短语与-ING短语带有与句子主语不同的主语，即本短语自己本身带有主语，这就构成了独立结构(也叫独立主格结构或垂悬结构)，这种结构也可作状语表示时间，原因等。有时在独立结构前还可加介词with 或 without。
Her eyes filled with tears, she did not notice his coming.
18) This , we went out to play.
［A］ was done
［B］ did
［C］ was dong
［D］ done
19) all his followers dead, the commander was taken by his enemy.
［A］ For
［B］ As
［C］ Because of
［D］ With
六、例题解析
1) B为正确答案。空档前是一完整的句子，在没有连词的情况下，不能填充A和D；根据题意，“利息”是“通过…(被)挣来的”，有被动之意，所以选B。
2) B为正确答案。此句的意思是“房子”被“遗弃，没人住”，是被动的意义，而A和C都不符合这一点。D是动词不定式，一般表示将来或具体动作，所以D也不对。
3) D错。应去掉多余的“is”，使-ED分词“examined”作后置定语修饰“object”。C处并没有错。“present”是形容词，它与后面的成分构成形容词短语修饰限定前面的“the ratio…carbon”。
4) D为正确答案。这句话前半句的-ED分词相当于一个时间状语从句“When he was inaugurated a second time …”，主句的主语应当是人，所以A和D为可能选项，但A中的look forward to后应跟名词，那么只有D为正确选项。
5) A为正确答案。本句的意思是“在显微镜下看，雪花……”，显然这里的看是“被观察”之义。B、C、D都表示主动，A为正确选项。
6) A为正确答案。(同上)
7) B为正确答案。(同上)
