1。这里只是介词，因为没有名词的作用。 注：动名词也是一种介词
( y8 k5 V5 p* r' M2。我会说：I almost lost the chance (that) I had been expecting for a long time.

赞成chengming说的

8 I/ o' v9 |/ w7 k; H. s6 x) j  a说的啰嗦一点其实是
.....the chance THAT i had been expecting for a long time.
that 后面的是用来修饰chance的

8 Y* e- {# m6 ^  d4 h
i almost lost the chance expected for a long time.不大好。
0 E. f( g, D4 k3 l首先for a  long time是一个时间段，表示一个持续性的动作，用have been doing比较好
. z- ?$ I4 U: ^2 \! ?5 b& I0 T! M9 \其次something expected一般是表示被别人期望或者预期的
而这里你想表达自己的希望

0 m" w( |6 a0 l; A7 h不行。要么你说 I almost lost the chance which/that had been expected for a long time, 要么 I almost lost the chance (that) I have expected for a long time.
& R& |: z0 F% y前面一句的that或which不能省略，因为他们在从句中是主语。后面一句的that可以省略，因为他是宾语。

想要简单的说的话： Having expected the chance for a long time, I almost lost it.

这个有点不好，因为Having expected the chance for a long time这个开头强调时间，它以后一般要说等长时间的一个结果，例如Having expected the chance for a long time, I was ready for it when it came along.

2。这是个办法！ 如果我说， I almost lost the chance have been expected for a long time.  行不行。

再给你一个新的：I almost lost a long-expected chance.

个人以为1是分词作状语

I would say:
I almost missed an opportunity that I had been expecting for a long time.

pearlqq2005

我认为第一个问题是分词做伴随状语，应该不是介词吧。第二个问题同意ls的意见I almost missed an opportunity that I had been expecting for a long time.:)
