英语中既接不定式也接动名词作宾语的动词归纳

一、后接不定式或动名词且含义相同的动词

这类动词常见的有：like 喜欢 / love 喜欢 / hate 憎恨 / prefer 宁可 / begin 开始 / start 开始 / continue 继续 / can’t bear 不能忍受 / bother 麻烦 / intend 想要 / attempt 试图 / cease 停止，等。如：

I like designing [to design] my own dresses. 我喜欢为自己设计衣服。

When you begin to earn [earning] money, you can live a life of independence. 当你开始挣钱时，你就可以过独立的生活了。

You needn’t bother to come [coming] up. 你不必费心来了。

注意：当 like, love, hate, prefer 与 would, should 连用时，其后只能接不定式。如：

I’d love to have taken him round the factory, but I was too busy. 我本想带他去厂里看看，但我太忙了。

We mentioned that we would like to see the match and he arranged it for us immediately. 我们说起想看比赛，他马上为我们做了安排。

I should hate to be confined in an office all day. 我讨厌整天关在办公室里。

For various reasons I’d prefer not to meet him. 由于各种原因，我不愿见他。

另外，当 begin, start 本身为进行时态或后接 know, realize, understand 等静态动词时，其后的动词只能用不定式。如：

二、forget, remember, regret 后接不定式或动名词含义不同

动词 forget, remember, regret 等接不定式时，表示非谓语动词的动作发生于谓语动词的动作之后；接动名词作宾语时，表示非谓语动词的动作发生于谓语动词的动作之前。如：

Amid all the rush and confusion she forgot to say goodbye. 她在忙乱中忘了告辞。

外，动词 forget, remember, regret 等接动名词、接动名词的完成式或不定式的完成式作宾语时，意义相同。如：

I remember reading [having read] about the earthquake in the papers. 我记得在报纸上看到过关于这次地震的消息。

三、mean后接不定式或动名词含义不同

动词 mean 接不定式作宾语时，表示一种意图，意思是“打算做，想要做”；接动名词作宾语时，表示解释，意思是“意味着，意思是”。如：

If we mean to catch the early bus, that means getting up before five. 要想赶早班车，我们就得在5点钟以前起床。
