非谓语动词作状语典型例句如下：
1、Not only he but also his family came to the party，of course，with a lot of presents.不仅他，还有他的家人也来参加聚会了，当然还有一大堆礼物。
2、When he heard the good news，he jumped with joy.当他听到这个好消息时，他高兴得跳了起来。
3、After visiting the city twice，he decided to settle there.在参观了这个城市两次之后，他决定住在那里。
4、When she was asked to sing a song for the class，she felt nervous.当她被要求为全班唱一首歌时，她感到紧张。
非谓语动词是在指句子中，不充当谓语的动词。和从句一样，非谓语动词是以动词的变化型（不定式，动名词和分词）来替代句子中成分。非谓语动词可充当的成分有主语，宾语，定语，状语，补语等。
与谓语动词相同点：
1、如果是及物动词都可与宾语连用，例如：They built a garden.They suggested building a garden.
2、都可以被状语修饰：The suit fits him very well.The suit used to fit him very well.
3、都有主动与被动，“体”式（一般式；进行式；完成式）的变化。例如：He was punished by his parents.（谓语动词被动语态）He avoided being punished by his parents.（动名词的被动式）We have written the composition.（谓语动词的完成时）。
