Montreal is the second largest French-speaking city in the world, Pairs being the largest. L24蒙特利尔是世界上第二大讲法语城市，巴黎是最大的。“Pairs being the largest”是由“名词 (Pairs) + V-ing (being the largest)”构成的独立主格结构形式。 独立主格结构可以由“名(代词主格)+V-ing/V-ed/to do/形容词/副词/介词短语”构成。【巩固】Her work finished, she prepared to go home. 她的工作完成了，准备回家。The weather being fine, I kept the windows open. 天气很好，我让窗户一直开着。So many windows to clean, I had to devote the whole afternoon. 这么多窗户要擦，我只好奉献一个下午。The boy stood there, hand in pocket.男孩站在那儿，手放在口袋里。It being Sunday, they had no classes. 那天是星期天，他们不上课。【例1】. _ a fine day, Shenzhou VI will be launched on time according to its planned time.A. Being B. It being C. To be D. It is选B。本题考查独立主格结构。前一分句和后一分句在逻辑上存在因果关系，可以排除答案D。因为前面的分词的逻辑主语不可能是后面一个分句的逻辑主语，故前一分句要有一个逻辑主语it表示天气。【例2】.The factory produced many famous cars, none of _ shipped to foreign countries.A. them B. which C. it D. what选A。本题容易误选B。容易被认为是一个非限制性定语从句。理由是none后面没有并列连词and, but。但是，ship在这里是一个及物动词，意思为“运送到”，也就是说这里的shipped是一个过去分词，后面的部分是一个独立主格结构。如果在shipped前面加一个was，则应该选B，构成非限制性定语从句。【例3】The village seemed deserted, the only sign of life_some trees waving in the wind.Awere Bbeing Cwas Dto be答案B。独立主格结构，表伴随。【例4】.(2011浙江卷) Bats are surprisingly long-lived creatures, some _a life span of around 20 years.A.having B had C. have D. to have答案A。考查独立主格结构。had和have是谓语动词形式，题中没有连词，无法并存两个句子。to have表将来；having表伴随，因此，选A。句意：令人惊讶的是，蝙蝠是长寿的动物，有些能活20年左右。3.
