　　动词修饰语主要修饰动词。主要是为了解释动词“how,” “when,” “where,” “why,”，通常这种词都是副词或类似副词的短语。

类型	位置	举例
副词	动词前	FREQUENTLY, I walk to the store. I FREQUENTLY walk to the store.
副词	动词后	I walk to the store FREQUENTLY.
介词	动词前	On Mondays, I walk to the store.
介词	动词后	I walk to the store On Mondays.
主从连词	动词前	WHEN my car is broken, I walk to the store.
主从连词	动词后	I walk to the store WHEN my car is broken.

　　而作为从句一般打头的引导词有：because, although, if, unless, while, so that, while

有些动词修饰语可能适用于动词和动词的主语，在这些情况下，我们必须确保主语及和修饰语同样有意义。

类型	位置	举例
现在分词	动词前	WHISTLING “Beat It”, I lifted the weight.
现在分词	动词后	I lifted the weight, WHISTLING “Beat It”.
介词+动名词	动词前	BY CONCENTRATING, I lifted the weight.
介词+动名词	动词后	I lift the weight BY CONCENTRATING.
不定式表目的	动词前	TO FREE my leg, I lifted the weight.
不定式表目的	动词后	I lifted the weight TO FREE my leg.

　　动词修饰语和名词修饰语不同的是动词修饰语不必紧贴着动词，距离可以比较远。但为了避免句意上的问题我们还是建议两者距离最好不要太远：

　　◆ Wrong: The nameless symphony was at last performed, decades after it was composed, yesterday.

　　◆ Right: The nameless symphony was at last performed yesterday, decades after it was composed.
