動(dòng)名詞

6、動(dòng)名詞作定語

動(dòng)名詞作定語時(shí)和形容詞的功能是相似的。動(dòng)名詞可以單獨(dú)作定語，如：

a smiling face 笑臉

a leading figure 領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人物

動(dòng)名詞還能構(gòu)成合成詞作定語，如：

easy-going man 好說話的人

swimming pool 游泳池

sleeping-pill 安眠藥片

dining-car 餐車

當(dāng)分詞短語做后置定語時(shí)，可以轉(zhuǎn)換成定語從句。

She went on board the train leaving for Shanghai.

= She went on board the train, which was leaving for Shanghai.

她乘坐了去上海的火車。

There are two roads before us, one leading to the beach, the other to the park.

= There are two roads before us, one which leads to the beach, the other to the park.

在我們面前有兩條路，一條通向沙灘，另一條通向公園。
