语法陷阱题800例—非谓语动词

(5) Which do you enjoy ____ your weekend, swimming or fishing?

A. spending                                              B. being spent

C. spend                                                   D. to spend

答案选 D。enjoy 的宾语是句首的疑问词 which，不是其后的动词 spending。此题中的 to spend… 用作目的状语。

(5) What the boy enjoys _____ to have a room of his own.

A. being                                                   B. to be

C. is                                                         D. are

答案选C，而不选A。what the boy enjoys 是主语从句，空格处填的 is 为谓语动词。

(6) Nothing that he suggested _____ to be of any use.

A. prove      B. proved       C. proving       D. to prove

答案选B，而不选C。句子主语是 nothing，that he suggested 是修饰主语的定语从句，suggested 的宾语是引导该定语从句的关系代词 that，而不是其后的动词；句子谓语是 proved。全句意为“他建议的情况没有一条是有用的。”

(7) The old house we paid a visit _____ at the top of the hill.

A. standing                                               B. to stand

C. to standing                                           D. to stands

(8) The life he is now used _____ quite different from ours.

A. is                                                        B. to be

C. to being                                               D. to is

答案选D。句中he is now used to 是修饰 the life 的定语从句，to 后的动词 is 是句子的谓语，句意为“他现在习惯的这种生活与我们的生活很不相同”。

(9) The work he paid special attention _____ to nothing.

A. came                                                   B. to come

C. to coming                                             D. to came

答案选D。句中的he paid special attention to 是修饰 the work 的定语从句，to 后的动词 came 是句子的谓语，句意为“他特别关注的那项工作泡汤了”。

(10) The result what he said would lead _____ his regret in the future.

A. is                                                        B. to be

C. to being                                               D. to was

15. _______ the road round to the right and you’ll find his house.

A. Follow                                                 B. Following

C. To follow                                             D. Followed

【陷阱】容易误选B或C，误认为这是非谓语动词作状语。

_______ the road round to the right, you’ll find his house.

A. Follow                                                 B. Following

C. To follow                                             D. Followed

但是，若改成下面一题这样，则答案为C(不定式短语表目的)：

_______ the road round to the right, the blind man asked a boy to guide him.

A. Follow                                                 B. Following

C. To follow                                             D. Followed
