【考点归纳】 介词of 后为动名词的复合结构。当动名词的逻辑主语和句子的主语不一致时，要在动名词之前加物主代词或名词所有格，这样便构成了动名词的复合结构。该复合结构作宾语时，物主代词或名词所有格可用人称代词宾格或名词普通格代替。 ①Her coming to help encouraged all of us. 她来帮忙鼓舞了我们所有人。 ②My sister's being ill made us worried. 姐姐病了，我们都很担心。
【思维拓展】 如果动名词复合结构作宾语，其中的物主代词常用人称代词宾格，名词所有格常用名词普通格代替，但是在句首作主语时不能这样来代替。 Would you mind my/me using your computer? 用下你的电脑介意吗？
