【语法】
动词不定式
不定式由“to + 动词原形”构成,其否定形式是“not to + 动词原形”。不定式可以带宾 语或状语构成不定式短语,没有人称和数的变化,但有时态和语态的变化。不定式可作主 语、宾语、状语、表语和定语,但不能单独作谓语。不定式的逻辑主语有时有“for + 名词 或代词宾格”构成。
1.不定式的用法
1)作主语。不定式短语作主语时,往往放在谓语之后,用it作形式宾语。如: To see is to believe.
It is right to give up smoking. 2)作宾语。不定式短语作宾语时,如果还带有宾语补足语,往往把不定式宾语放在宾语 补足语之后,而用it作形式宾语。如:
He wanted to go.
I find it interesting to study history. 有些动词后只能用动词不定式作宾语。如:decide,plan,desire,expect, hope, wish,pretend,promise,refuse,afford,agree,ask,fail,tend, pretend,manage等
3)作宾语补足语。如:
He asked me to do the work with him. 注意:在feel,hear,notice,observe,see,watch,have,let,make等词后的补足 语中,不定式不带to。但这些句子如果变成被动结构时,就必须带to。如:
I often hear him sing the song.
He is often heard to sing the song. 4)作定语。如:
I have some books for you to read.
①作定语的不定式如果是不及物动词,或者不定式所修饰的名词或代词是不定式动作的地 点、工具等,不定式后面须有相应的介词。如:
He is looking for a room to live in. There is nothing to worry about. Please give me a knife to cut with.
但是,不定式所修饰的名词如果是time,place或way,不定式后面的介词习惯上省去。
如:
He had no money and no place to live.
②当作定语的不定式所修饰的名词或代词是不定式动作的承受者时,不定式既可以用主动 语态,也可用被动语态,但其含义有所不同。试比较:
Have you anything to send ?
(你有什么东西要寄吗?——不定式to send的动作执行者是“你”) Have you anything to be sent.
[你有什么要(我或别人)寄的东西吗?——不定式to be sent的动作执行者是“我”或“别 人”]
5)作状语,表示目的、原因、结果或条件。如: I came here to see you. (目的)
We were very excited to hear the news. (原因)
He hurried to the school to find nobody there. (结果) To look at him, you would like him. (条件)
目的状语还可以用in order to或so as to来表示但so as to不能置于句首。如: In order to pass the exam, he worked very hard.
We ran all the way so as not to be late. 不定式也可以在作表语用的形容词后面作状语。如: I am very glad to hear it.
The question is difficult to answer.
“too + 形容词或副词 + 不定式”作状语。如: He is too old to do that.
另外,句子中有enough这个词时,常用不定式作状语。例如: The room is big enough to hold us.
6)作表语。如:
My job is to help the patient. 7)作独立成分。如:
To tell the truth, I don’t agree with you. 8)不定式与疑问词who,which,when,where,how,what,whether等连用,在句 中起名词作用,可充当主语、表语、宾语等。如:
He didn’t know what to say. (宾语)
How to solve the problem is very important. (主语) 注意:在与why连用时,只用于why或why not开头的简短疑问句中,后面紧跟的动词不 定式不带to。例如:
Why not have a rest ?
2 动词不定式的形式
(注:不定式的否定形式在其前面加not)
* 不定式的一般形式表示这个动作或状态将要发生,或表示与谓语动词的动作或状态同时发 生或存在。
e.g. The meeting to be held is about environment protection(环保)。
* 不定式的完成时表示动作发生在谓语动词之前。
e.g. His book is said to have been translated into several languages.
* 当谓语动词表示的动作或情况发生时,不定式的动作正在进行,这时不定式就要用进行 时。
. They seemed to be talking about something important when I came in. 3 动词不定式与介词but的关系
动词不定式在介词but后面时,如果介词之前有行为动词do的各种形式,那么,这些 介词后的不定式不带to,否则要带to。另外,在can’t but, can’t choose but和can’t help
but等后面的不定式也省略to。如: She could do nothing but cry. I have no choice but to go.
He did nothing but laugh.
I’m sure we had nothing to do but to fight the battle out. You can’t (help) but respect them.
(你不得不尊重他们。) 练习
1. Without facts,we can’t form a correct opinion,for we need to have actual knowledge our thinking.
A. which to be based on B. which to base on
C. on which to base D. which to base 2.Tom pretended it but in fact,he knew it very well.
A. not listen to B. not to hear about
C. not to have heard about D. not to be listening to
3.The man we followed suddenly stopped and looked as if whether he was going in the right direction.
A. seeing B. having seen C. to see D. to have seen 4.Hearing his words,I couldn’t decide __or remain.
A. whether to go abroad B. if I go abroad
C. if to go abroad D. to go abroad
5.Lily’s mobile phone was left in a taxi accidentally,never again.
A. to find B. to be found C. finding D. being found 6.Mr Johnson preferred heavier work to do.

C. for finding out it D. to find out it
9. In order to make the separate family reunited,he did _ them.(Which one of the following is wrong?)
A. all he could to help B. everything possible to help
C. his best to help D. what he could help
10. We did not expect the plan we had made very carefully for them so coldly.
A. refused B. to refuse C. to be refused D. refusing 答案
1. C base A on B把A建立在B的基础上。
2. C 此处用不定式的完成式表示该动作发生在前。
3. C as if后接不定式表示“目的”。
4. A 疑问词+不定式可作表语或宾语,但是if没有此用法。
5. B was never to be found again再也没有找到。
6. A prefer后面的动名词或动词不定式的动作主体就是句子的主语。动词give一般要有双 宾语,而句子里并无give的间接宾语(给谁),因此全句意思应是“约翰逊先生宁可有(被 给予)更重的活干”。
7. B 动词seem后应接不定式作宾语;词组all the time的意思是“始终、一直”,相当于 continuously,因此句中相应的动词一般要用进行式。全句的意思是“我宁愿看书也不愿意 看电视,电视节目好像越来越差了”。
8. B 从句中上下文看,空白处填一个表目的的不定式才符合句意,for加动名词不能表目 的,故A、C两项不对。D项不合语法。
9. D A项为省略句,全句应为:he did all he could do to help them。to help为目的状 语,A是正确的。B项中形容词置于everything之前,也无错误。C项do one’s best to是
习语,也常为人所用。D项中的错误在于help前少了to。to help表目的。
10 C 这是一个except+宾语+不定式的句型。本句中的宾语是plan,其后加了一个较长的 定语从句,空白处为不定式,从句中看只有用其被动形式才合句意。
【写作】
请根据下面提示写一篇关于环境保护的文章。
1)The world we live in is becoming more and more intolerable(不能忍受的) because of environmental destruction.
(2)A lot of measures have been taken …
(3)However, the problem of environmental protection remains far from being solved.
【参考范文】
The world we live in is becoming more and more intolerable because of environmental destruction. For example, forest cut-down results in decrease of planting land and unpleasant weather. In addition, man is faced with problems of water pollution and air pollution.
A lot of measures have been taken. Planting trees helps improve and beautify
the environment. Besides, laws concerning environmental protection have been put into effect and achieved good results.
However, the problem of environmental protection remains far from being solved. On the one hand, the environment pollution and destruction are getting worse and worse in the modern world. On the other hand, the lack of knowledge about the importance of protecting environment prevents the solving of the problem. In a word, there is a long way to go before we enjoy a clean and comfortable world.

Can you remember the first time you learned to ride a bike or drive a car? Learning these skills changed your life forever and opened up new horizons(视
野).Learning about computers can be like learning how to ride a bike or drive a
car. Once you have invested the time to master the skills,you will never go back to the old days. The new technology is simply too convenient and too powerful.
Technological developments through the years have enabled us to do more with less effort. We have continuously looked for better ways of doing things.
Each invention and new development has allowed us to extend our capabilities. Today we see one of the most dramatic technologies ever developed—the computer. It extends the capabilities of our minds.
Computers have saved organizations millions of dollars. Furthermore,these same computer systems have opened up new opportunities that would have gone undiscovered or neglected. The computer may multiply what we can do,and the return on investment is high. The growth of computer usage is surprising. On the other hand,the computer can do serious damage. Invasion of privacy(侵犯隐
私),fraud(欺诈),and computer-related mistakes are just a few shocking examples. The computer is like a double-edged sword. It has the ability to cut us free from some activities,but it can also cut deep into profits,personal privacy, and our society in general. How it is used is not a function of technology. It is strictly a function of how people decide to use or misuse this new technology. The choice is yours,and only through a knowledge of computer systems will you be able to avoid the dangers while enjoying the many,many benefits of the computer age.

Martin Luther King was the most famous civil right leader in the world. He led many civil rights movements of the 1950’s and 1960’s. When he was 38 years old, he won the Nobel Peace Prize. “I have a dream” Dr. King said on that greatest day in Washington in 1963, “… that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. When all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and gentiles will be able to join hands and sing the words: “Free at last! Free at last!” On the afternoon of April 4th 1968, a bullet took his life before a meeting. He was dead, but his dream was not. His dream lives on. His dream will never die!
