关于being的用法

Answer 1

关于以下句子的being: Despite the duration of the work experience being quite short
employers would still probably choose a fresh graduate with such experience over one without it. "Despite" is a preposition
which has to be followed by a noun or noun phrase as its object. Therefore
"Despite the duration of the work experience is quite short
" is not grammatical as a finite verb "is" appears in the prepositional phrase. "being"
the present participle (non-finite verb / verbal) of "be" (linking verb)
is used to link up the noun phrase "the duration of the work experience" with the predicative adjective "short". In other word
"being quite short" is a participle phrase (adjectival) moding the noun phrase. 2014-11-18 04:10:38 补充： He is rude. It is a description or opinion relating to his character in general. He is being rude. It tells an opinion about his manner in some defined occasion
or at present moment. That said
a polite (character) man can be rude sometimes. 2014-11-18 04:17:05 补充： Correct preposition: "on" some occasion (not "in" ....)
Being o系句子里面担当「主动词」o既角色，负责承载「处于什么什么状态」的语意。 不同于现在式和过去式（都是 simple ect），「is」、「was」、「am」、「are」、「were」等等在进行式的动词结构里，只是助动词（即帮助主动词完成文法结构〔be + V-ing〕的动词）。 用「being」因为「being」系「be」o既现在分词，即系 be 加 -ing，按照进行式o既结构要求，要o系「was」呀、「am 呀」呢o的助动词后面加返一个加o左 -ing o既「主动词」。 记住，「being」在句子里是「主动词」，不可答「分词」。 因为它是「be」这个「动词」的现在分词，绝不是句子的分词。 2014-11-23 20:32:10 补充： (1) 作为be的现在分词，例如： Being busy
I can't watch TV now. 我现在很忙，无暇看电视。 (2) 作为be的动名词，例如： Being with you makes me happy. 和你一起令我愉快。 (3) 构成被动进行式，例如： The house is being built. 该大屋正在建造中。 (4) 作为名词，表示「存在」或「生命」，例如： That was his reason for being. 那就是他生存的理由。 (5) 表示「人」或「物」，例如： A human being should do good deeds. 人应该 2014-11-23 20:32:57 补充： 应该做好事。 (6) 表示「肉体和精神之结合」，例如： She responded to the music with her whole being. 她身心都陶醉在音乐之中。 （陆谷孙《英汉大词典》） (7) 用于惯用语，例如for the time being： He is staying with his uncle for the time being. 他暂时住在叔父家。 2014-11-23 20:34:16 补充： 另外 is be
is to be
will be 和is being 用法区别 is be，这种形式不正确，因为is是be动词，后面不能再加动词原形be； is to be，表示“已经确定，确信，确认“之意。例：The boy is to e here.男孩确定要过来。 will be ，是一般将来时，后面加名词，代词等可以做表语的成分。例：She will be here tomorrow.她明天在 这里。 is being ，可以看做是现在进行时的被动语态的构成形式。例：He is being hit b 2014-11-23 20:35:08 补充： is being ，可以看做是现在进行时的被动语态的构成形式。例：He is being hit by Father. 主动句是：Father is hitting him. 完-：亖亖亖亖亖⼀⼀⼀

Never use “despite” to introduce a clause. Instead use “despite” with a present participle (verb + ing). “Be” can have many forms depending on its subject and on its tense. Present tense: ~ am
is
are Past tense :~ was
were. Past participle :~ been Present participle:~ being 2014-11-15 02:45:41 补充： “the duration of the work experience is quite short” 是一个 clause . 如果这么写两个 clauses 无 conjunction 或 semi-colon
是 run-on sentence. 用 though (conjunction) 代替 despite (prep) Though the duration of the work experience is quite short
employers would still probably choose a fresh graduate with such ..... 2014-11-15 02:50:11 补充： 或者 restructure 过
仍旧用 Despite Despite the fact that the duration of the work experience is quite short
employers would still probably choose a fresh graduate with such experience over one without it. 2014-11-15 02:51:45 补充： Other example: (using “being”) I am younger than my o brothers. I always had to wear their old clothes. (~ o separate sentences) Being younger than my o brothers
I always had to wear their old clothes. (~ one sentence
using present participial phrase)
