英語動詞不定式用法
小編搜集整理的英語動詞不定式用法的內容,希望大家喜歡。
動詞不定式及其短語還可以有自己的賓語、狀語,雖然動詞不定式在語法上沒有表面上的直接主語,但它表達的意義是動作,這一動作一定由使動者發(fā)出。這一使動者我們稱之為 邏輯主語,其形式如下:
(1)語態(tài)
如果動詞不定式的邏輯主語是這個不定式所表示的動作的承受者,不定式一般要用被動語態(tài)形式。如:
It's a great honour to be invited to Mary's birthday party.(不定式作主語是被動語態(tài)to be invited是被邀請)
It was impossible for lost time to be made up.(不定式作主語)
I wish to be sent to work in the country.(不定式作賓語)
Can you tell me which is the car to be repaired?(不定式作定語)
He went to the hospital to be examined.(不定式作狀語)
在There be結構中,修飾主語的不定式可用被動,也可用主動。如:There are still many things to take care of (to be taken care of).但有時兩種形式表達的意思不同,如:There is nothing to do now.( We have nothing to do now.) There is nothing to be done now.(We can do nothing now.)
(2)時態(tài)
1) 現在時:一般現在時表示的動詞,有時與謂語動詞表示的動作同時發(fā)生,有時發(fā)生在謂語動詞的動作之后。
He seems to know this.
I hope to see you again. = I hope that I'll see you again. 我希望再見到你。
2) 完成時:表示的'動作發(fā)生在謂語動詞表示的動作之前。
I'm sorry to have given you so much trouble.
He seems to have caught a cold.
3) 進行時:表示動作正在進行,與謂語動詞表示的動作同時發(fā)生。
He seems to be eating something.
4) 完成進行時:
She is known to have been wreaking on the problem for many years.
一般在情緒后加to do to do 也表將來
編輯本段疑問詞+不定式結構疑問詞who,what,which,when,where,whether,how后可接不定式構成不定式短語,在句中作主語、賓語、表 語等。如:
、賅hen to leave for London has not been decided yet. (不定式在句子中做主語)
、贛r. Smith didn't know whether to leave or stay there. (不定式在句子中做賓語)
、跧 asked Professor Xu how to learn English well. (不定式在句子中做直接賓語)
④The question was where to get the medicine needed. (不定式在句子中表語)
以上例句中疑問詞+不定式部分,均可轉換為相應的從句形式。如:①When we shall leave…③…how I
could learn…
經常在這種結構中使用的動詞有:consider,decide,discover,explain,find out,forget,hear,know,lea rn,observe,understand,wonder等。
語法功能一、作主語
動詞不定式作主語時,句子的謂語動詞常用單數,其位置有以下兩種:
(1)把不定式置于句首。如:
To get there by bike will take us half an hour.
(2)用it作形式主語,把真正的主語不定式置于句后,常用于下列句式中。如:
①It+be+名詞+to do
It's our duty to take good care of the old.
、贗t takes sb+some time+to do
How long did it take you to finish the work?
、跧t+be+形容詞+for sb+to do
It is difficult for us to finish writing the composition in a quarter of an h
It is stupid of you to write down everything (that) the teacher says.
④It seems(appears)+形容詞+to do
It seemed impossible to save money.
在句型③中,常用表示客觀情況的形容詞,如:difficult,easy,hard,important,impossible,necessary 等;在句型④中,常用careless,clever,good,foolish,honest,kind,lazy,nice,right,silly,stupid,wise等 表示贊揚或批評的詞。在不定式前的sb,可看作其邏輯主語。這一句式有時相當于Sb is+形容詞+to do句式 ,如:It's kind of you to help me with my English.=You are kind to helpme with my English.
(3)舉例
(1) It's easy (for me) to do that.我做這事太容易了
easy, difficult, hard, important, possible, impossible, comfortable, necessary, better;
the first, the next, the last, the best, too much, too little, not enough
It's so nice to hear your voice.
聽到你的聲音真高興。
It's necessary for you to lock the car when you do not use it.
當你不用車的時候,鎖車是有必要的。
(2) It's very kind of him to help us. 他幫助我們,他真好。
Kind, nice, stupid, rude, clever, foolish, thoughtful, thoughtless, brave, considerate(考慮周到的), silly, selfish(自私的)
例句:
It was silly of us to believe him. 我們真愚蠢,竟然相信了他。
It seemed selfish of him not to give them anything. 他不給他們任何東西,這顯得太自私了。
注意:(1) 其他系動詞如,look,appear等也可用于此句型
(2) 不定式作為句子成分時,動詞用單數形式。
(3) 當不定式作主語的句子中又有一個不定式作表語時,不能用It is… to…的句型
(對)To see is to believe. 眼見為實。
(錯)It is to believe to see.
