    (2)动名词作表语：动名词作表语，表示抽象的一般性的行为。  
Our work is serving the people．我们的工作是为人民服务。  
His hobby is collecting stamps．他的爱好是集邮。

(注)动名词作表语时与进行时态中的现在分词形式相同，但其所属结构迥异，进行时态说明动作是由主语完成的。动名词做表语，说明主语的性质或情况。  
People cannot but feel puzzled，for they simply cannot understand how he could have made such a stupid mistake.  
    His victory in the final was no more convincing than I had expected．  
  (3)分词作表语  
    分词做表语有两种情况，一种是现在分词做表语，一种是过去分词做表语，这两者区别是考试中经常考到的地方。一般来说，表示心理状态的动词如excite，interest等都是及物动词，汉语意思不是“激动”，“高兴”，而是“使激动”、“使高兴”，因而现在分词应该是“令人激动的”、“令人高兴的”，过去分词则是“感到激动的”和“感到高兴的”。所以，凡表示“令人……的”都是-ing形式，凡是表示“感到……”都用-ed形式。换句话说，若人对……感兴趣，就是somebody is interested in...,若人/物本身有兴趣时，就是说sb./sth. is interesting.这类词常见的有：  
  interesting使人感到高兴--interested感到高兴的  
  exciting令人激动的--excited感到激动的  
  delighting令人高兴的--delighted感到高兴的  
  disappointing令人失望的--disappointed感到失望的  
  encouraging令人鼓舞的--encouraged感到鼓舞的  
  pleasing令人愉快的--pleased感到愉快的  
  puzzling令人费解的--puzzled感到费解的  
  satisfying令人满意的---satisfied感到满意的  
  surprising令人惊异的--surprised感到惊异的  
  worrying令人担心的--worried感到担心的  
  Travelling is interesting but tiring．旅行是有趣的，但是使人疲劳。  
  The pupils will get confused if they are made to learn too much．如果要学生学得太多，他们会感到糊涂的。  
  The argument is very convincing．他的论点很令人信服。  
  They were very excited at the news．听到这个消息，他们非常激动。
