How to use part participle?
Example 1:The test tube used in the experiment was broken by Tom.
(=The test tube was used in the experiment. The test tube was then broken.)
Example 2:Tom being send to Internetional school is very naught.
(=Tom is sent to Internetional school. He is very naught.)
"used in the experiment" & "being send to internetional school" are participle phrases of "was used" & " is sent" respectively, but why the first one have a extra word "being" ?
Thank for answering^^

"Noun being past participle" is possible when the phrase is "noun who is/was being past participle" before "whiz deletion".
(EX)
The gentleman (who is) being interviewed over there is one of this year's Nobel laureates in medicine.
= The gentleman being interviewed over there is one of this year's Nobel laureates in medicine.
You can't say "Tom w

Hello Anon
I guess you are asking about sentence structures. But I'd like to make some comments on your sentences in regards to their meaning.
First of all, I'm afraid you might confuse "naught" and "naughty". "Naught" is commonly used to mean "nothing" (or "zero"), although it could mean "a person who is bad". "Naughty" is an adjective to describe a child who is disobedient and
