A linking verb is a word used to
connect the subject of a sentence
to further information about the
state which the subject is in.
Point out the linking verbs in the sentences.
1. I am Linda.
2. Surfing the Internet is really interesting.
3. We are now in need of English teachers.
4. The question is how to solve the problem.
5. What we want to know is who will give
us the lecture next Monday.
6. Your suggestion sounds
sounds reasonable.
7. It seems that everyone here knows
him quite well.
8. Milk goes bad easily in summer if you
do not put it in the fridge.
The most common linking verb is ‘to be
( be/ am/ is/ are/ was/ were/ been)’
e.g. The information is true and accurate.

state
1. Words like appear, seem, prove, keep,
stay and remain can all be linking verbs.
e.g. He appears to be very friendly with us.
It appears that she will win.
The Internet proved of great value to
us during our project.
You shouldn’t keep quiet in a debate.
People stayed silent and listened to us,
and applauded at the end.
For these reasons, I believe the Internet
remains a positive tool that helps make
our lives better.
2. Words relating to the five senses-sound, taste feel, look and smell -can also be linking verbs.
e.g. That sounds wonderful, but some
people claim that the Internet is
waste of time.

may not taste delicious to you.

a hard day’s work.

The boy will go mad if you don’t
allow him to use the computer.
Alisha fell asleep the moment she got
into bed.

John gets easily excited when playing
computer games.
The amount of false information on the
Internet becomes more of a problem
every day.
4. Linking verbs are most often followed
by an adjective. Sometimes, they can
also be followed by a noun or a
prepositional phrase.
e.g.
adjective
I feel it remains important for us either
to limit our use of the Internet, or to learn
how to solve the problems it has caused.
noun
He became a teacher after graduating
from college.
prepositional phrase

Underline all the linking verbs in the

Answers:
Today I feel worn out. This morning, I
took part in a debate about the Internet.
The Internet is very controversial. It
seems very popular with many people,
but there are still some people who do
not like it at all.
They say that it is full of information
that can not be trusted, and that it
stops people from spending time with
their families and friends.
I admire the boy I debated against
because he was very skillful. He made
some quite reasonable points and gave a
good speech. I talked to him after the
debate. He seemed tired too. He doesn’t
really think the Internet is bad, but he
thinks we should pay attention to the
problems it can cause. I agreed and told
him I felt sure that if we use it in an
intelligent manner, the Internet can be
a good tool.
We were both happy with the outcome
of the debate. People stayed silent and
listened to us, and applauded at the end.
Mum predicts that I will become quite a
good public speaker if I continue to take
part in debates. I am hopeful that I will,
and I am eager to debate again because
today proved very successful!

twelve. (江苏 2007)
A. feeling well
B. feeling good
C. feel well
D. feel good
选D。make sb. do sth.为习惯性搭配，
意为“让某人做某事” ，故用动词原
形feel作宾补；feel作系动词，后跟形
容词作表语；well作形容词时意为
“身体健康”，不合题意。

morning exercise. (2006全国卷I)
A. was felt

C. felt
D. feels

形容词作表语，指“（东西）摸上去有
某种感觉；给人某种感觉”。此处指
“水（给人的感觉）很凉爽”，系动词
不用被动语态，故排除A、B两项；由
句中jumped可判断此处应用一般过去时，
