初级英语语法重点、考点与难点(09)

3. 哪些动词后要接不定式而不接动名词作宾语

We expected ______ but we didn’t manage ______ the tickets.

A. to go, to get         B. going, getting      C. to go, getting       D. going, to get

此题应选A, 因为动词 expect, manage之后接动词作宾语时，通常要用不定式而不用动名词。类似地以下动词通常也只能以不定式作宾语：

agree 同意               ask 要求                  choose 决定

decide 决定              expect 期待              hope 希望

manage 设法得以     prepare 准备            offer 主动提出

pretend 假装            promise 答应            refuse 拒绝

wish 希望                want 想要等等

1. She pretended _____ me when I passed by.

A. not to see              B. not seeing

C. to not see              D. having not seen

2. We agreed _____ here but so far she hasn’t turned up yet.

A. having met            B. meeting

C. to meet                 D. to have met

A. to lend, to buy       B. lending, buying

C. to lend, buying      D. lending, to buy

4. He chose _____ at home because he had a cold.

A. staying                 B. to stay

C. having stayed        D. to having stayed

答案：1. A 2. C 3. A 4. B

4. like, love等动词后接不定式还是动名词

Little Jim should love ______ to the theatre this evening.

A. to be taken          B. to take                C. being taken         D. taking

此题应选 A。因为从语法上看should love 之后只能接不定式, 所以答案只能在A, B中选择；又因为从句意上看应该用被动式, 所以只能选A。

在英语中, 有些动词其后接动词作宾语时, 可用不定式也可用动名词, 且含义大致相同。这类动词主要有：like, love, begin, start, hate, prefer, continue, intend, can’t bear(也有人认为用不定式多指特定动作, 用动名词多指经常性动作, 但总的说来, 在现代英语中这两类结构区别不大)：

He like watching [to watch] TV. 他喜欢看电视。

I prefer living [to live] here. 我喜欢住在这儿。
