Abstract. The article discuses the problem of cognitive categorization of the poly-predicative structures consisting from the principal clause and -ing form which occupies the position of a complement of a top sentence verbal predicate. The conducted analysis indicated that all semantic representations of such constructions objectify the complicated event occurring within the conceptual space of a cognitive scenic model - a set of regular cognitive-semantic parameters correlating with the specific positions of a syntactic structure of the constructions under analysis. In this model the gerund event is profiled as an activity which is implemented on necessary contact with a human and is represented through his typical cognitive functions: perception, understanding, communication, evaluation and forming the certain conditions.
