大学英语四级动名词的用法

       
        【例如】

        【例如】
       
        I regret to say that I can't accept your invitation.
       
        regret doing：后悔做过某事。
       
        【例如】

        try to do：尽力做某事。
       
        【例如】
       
        One should try to do everything well.

        3)动名词作介词宾语
       
        动名词作介词宾语，并且和介词构成介词短语。
       
        【例如】
       
        She left without saying anything to us.Man's dream of landing on the moon came true in1968.I am afraid of being punished by the teacher.Ann never dreams of ____for her to be sent abroad very soon.(CET-4 1998,6)
       
        A) there being a chance B) there to be
       
        C) there be a chance D) being a chance
       
        of为介词，后面接动名词做宾语，因此B和C都可以排除。另外，根据句意：安妮从来没有梦想过她有一个很快被送出国的机会，介词后面含有“有”的意思，用there be结构表达，故正确答案为A.
