Speaking:
1.Your house is on fire, but there is still a little girl sleeping in the bedroom on the second floor.
sleeping in the bedroom 现在分词作后置定语,因为句中已用了there be句型,句中已有谓语部分,所以sleeping不能改为sleeps, 但可以改为 who is sleeps.
现在分词&动名词作定语的区别
a sleeping boy=a boy who is sleeping
a sleeping car=a car used for sleeping
a running river, a dancing room, a laughing man
on fire & catch fire
Paper catches fire easily.
The house is on fire.
