doing

Octorber 14th,2012

　　 doing の形は、大きく3つのパターンで使われると思います。　　まず、1つ目めは、現在進行形や過去での進行形の「～している」を表す形です。　　2つ目は、I like swimmimg. のように swim　という動詞を名詞として使うときにingを付けるという便利な使い方です。　1つ目の使い方と2つ目の使い方は、全く違うと思うと違いますが、使っているとなんとなく似ているような気がしてきます。
　　　3つ目が、今回説明するもので、基本的には1つ目の「応用」のような感じで、「～しながら」や「～している」を示します。
　　　Runner-5 から見ていきます。

She looked around, making sure there were no runners around her.

-making sure　確認しながら　　there were no runners around her　彼女の周りにランナーがいないことを

The spectators were looking at her curiously, wondering why she didn't start.

She took a deep breath and then moved very slowly performing a running form, it was like taichi.

This was her first marathon, and she soon realized there were a lot of spectators watching the runners.

-spectators 　観客　watching the runners　ランナー達を見ている

She felt happy running in this setting.

-running in this setting　この環境の中で走りながら

She saw a TV crew in the car which was following her and a female reporter who was shouting something to the camera pointing at her form.

-pointing at her form　　彼女のフォームを指差しながら

She saw many children waving their hands to her.

-children 　子供達　waving their hands　手を振っている

He ran by her, pointing to her form and shouted. "Form! Form!"

-pointing to her form　　彼女のフォームを指差しながら

At 40 km, she saw 2 runners running in the distance in front of her.

-2 runners 　　二人のランナー　　running in the distance　遠いところで走っている

She saw the old woman sitting on the pavement in the crowd.

-the old woman 　　あの老女　sitting on the pavement 歩道に座っている

He ran by her, pointing to her form と、She saw the old woman sitting on the pavement は、使われ方は多少違いますが、それぞれの使い方は、複雑なわけではなく慣れていけると思います。
