upbraiding 是动词 upbraid 的现在分词和动名词形式。作动词时,upbraid 是及物动词,常见句型为 upbraid sb for sth 或 upbraid sb with sth,表示“因某事责备某人”。例如:She upbraided him for his carelessness. 作名词时,upbraiding 通常用作不可数名词,表示“责备”的行为,如:He could not bear her constant upbraiding. 也可用作定语,如 upbraiding tone(责备的语气)。易错点:upbraid 不用于 upbraid on sth,介词需用 for 或 with;现在分词 upbraiding 作状语时,逻辑主语应与主句主语一致,否则为悬垂修饰语。
