不定式常見(jiàn)用法例析

不定式是非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的一種，也是我們現(xiàn)階段英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)的重點(diǎn)。不定式到底有哪些用法呢？讓我們從一些題目中來(lái)看一看吧。

用法一：作主語(yǔ)

It？蒺s standard practice for a company like this one a security officer.

A.employed B.being employed C.to employ D.employs

解析 本題考查固定句型：It+be+n+for sb./sth. to do...，考點(diǎn)為不定式作主語(yǔ)，故答案為C。

對(duì)不定式作主語(yǔ)的考查，常常以固定句型的形式出現(xiàn)，主要有以下5種句型：

①It+be+名詞+to do...

e.g.：It？蒺s our duty to take good care of the old.

②It+be+形容詞+for sb.+to do...

e.g.：It is difficult for us to finish the task in an hour.

③It+be+形容詞+of sb.+to do...

e.g.：It is stupid of you to write down everything the teacher says.

④It takes sb.+some time+to do...

e.g.：How long did it take you to finish the work？

⑤It seems+形容詞+to do...

e.g.：It seemed impossible to save money.

只要熟記這些句型，不定式作主語(yǔ)的題目就能迎刃而解了。

用法二：作賓語(yǔ)

1.David threatened his neighbor to the police if the damage were not paid.

A.to be reported B.reporting C.to report D.having reported.

2.Susan wanted to be independent of her parents.She tried alone，but she didn？蒺t like it and moved back home.

A.living B.to live C.to be living D.having lived

解析 1.考查不定式作賓語(yǔ)。threatened的后面只能接不定式作賓語(yǔ)，句中表示“大衛(wèi)威脅鄰居如果損害沒(méi)有得到賠償，他將報(bào)警”。故答案為C。

考點(diǎn)分析：下列動(dòng)詞后面只能接不定式作賓語(yǔ)：決心學(xué)會(huì)想希望，設(shè)法拒絕愿假裝，主動(dòng)答應(yīng)選計(jì)劃，同意請(qǐng)求幫一幫。這一順口溜對(duì)應(yīng)下列單詞：decide/determine，learn，want，hope/wish/expect ，manage，refuse，care，pretend，offer，promise，choose，plan，agree，ask/beg，help。我們記住了這個(gè)順口溜，做題的時(shí)候就能事半功倍了。

2.考查不定式和動(dòng)名詞作賓語(yǔ)時(shí)的區(qū)別。此時(shí)要注意區(qū)分：try doing 意為“嘗試做……”， 而try to do 意為”努力去做…… ”。根據(jù)句意“蘇珊不想再依靠父母，她嘗試獨(dú)自居住但并不喜歡 ，最后又搬回了家”確定答案為 A。類似的詞還有can？蒺t help，go on，mean，forget，remember，regret，stop 及try，要注意他們后面跟動(dòng)名詞和不定式時(shí)意義上的區(qū)別。

牛刀小試：

1.The boy pretended when his motherentered.

A .reading B.to read C.to be reading D.being read

2.Nervous and anxious ，Jill failed a good impression at the job interview.

A.to have made B.making C.to make D.having made

3.We find it impossible for the work ahead of time.

A.to finish B.finishing C.being finished D.to be finished

4.—What about your adventure in the forest last week？

—Wonderful！I didn？蒺t expect there so many lovely monkeys！

A.to be B.being C.of being D.be

答案 1.C 2.A 3.D 4.A

用法三：作表語(yǔ)

Ladies and gentlemen，please remain until the plane has come to a complete stop.

A.seated B.seating C.to seat D.seat

解析 不定式作表語(yǔ)?？疾橄祫?dòng)詞remain后面的情況。remain作“尚待，留待”講時(shí)，后加“to be done”作表語(yǔ)；remain作“仍然”時(shí)，后面加現(xiàn)在分詞或過(guò)去分詞作表語(yǔ)。因此答案為B。

用法四：作定語(yǔ)

1.There are still many problems before we are ready for a long stay on the Moon.

A.solving B.solved C.being solved D.to be solved

2.The airport next year will help promote tourism in this area.

A.being completed B.to be completed C.completed D.having been completed

不定式作后置定語(yǔ)時(shí)，修飾前面的名詞或代詞，表示不定式動(dòng)作尚未發(fā)生或?qū)⒁M(jìn)行。

解析 1.在there be 結(jié)構(gòu)中，當(dāng)說(shuō)話人強(qiáng)調(diào)的是必須有人去完成某件事情時(shí)，不定式用主動(dòng)形式；如果說(shuō)話人強(qiáng)調(diào)的是事情本身必須被完成，不定式則用被動(dòng)形式。本題題意為“在我們準(zhǔn)備在月球上長(zhǎng)期生活之前，還有很多問(wèn)題有待于解決。”分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)得知，空處在句中作定語(yǔ)。又根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知此處表示沒(méi)有發(fā)生的事情，應(yīng)用不定式，又因?yàn)閟olve和problems之間為動(dòng)賓關(guān)系，因此用不定式的被動(dòng)式，故選擇D。

2.分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)得知，空處在句中作定語(yǔ)。又根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知此處表示沒(méi)有發(fā)生的事情，應(yīng)用不定式，又因?yàn)閏omplete和airport之間為動(dòng)賓關(guān)系，因此用不定式的被動(dòng)式，故選擇B。

牛刀小試：

1.The pressure causes Americans to be energetic，but it also puts them under a constant emotional strain.

A.to compete B.to be competed C.competing D.having competed

2.Could you find someone ？

A.for me to play tennis with B.for me to play tennis

C.play tennis with D.playing tennis

3.With a lot of difficult problems ，the newly-elected president is having a hard time.

A.settled B.settling C.to settle D.being settled

答案 1.A 2.A 3.C

用法五：作狀語(yǔ)

1.Group activities will be organized after class children develop team spirit.

A.helping B.having helped C.helped D.to help

2. ourselves from the physical and mental tensions，we each need deep thought and inner quietness.

A.Having freed B.Freed C.To free D.Freeing

解析 1.分析句子可知道這里需要目的狀語(yǔ)，句意為“為了幫助孩子們培養(yǎng)團(tuán)隊(duì)精神，下課后將組織小組活動(dòng)”。目的狀語(yǔ)通常用不定式表示。故選擇D。

2.根據(jù)題干和句意可知本題考查不定式作目的狀語(yǔ)，相對(duì)于上一題，本題結(jié)構(gòu)更清晰。句意為“為了讓我們從身體和精神的緊張中放松下來(lái)，我們都需要深刻的思考和內(nèi)心的平靜?！惫蔬x擇C。綜合這兩題，我們得出結(jié)論：目的狀語(yǔ)通常用動(dòng)詞不定式表示。

牛刀小試：

1.George returned after the war，only that his wife had left him.

A.to be told B.telling C.being told D.told

2.The air is very hard to in Tibet because of the high altitude.

A.breath in B.be breathed in C.breath D.be breathed

答案 1.A 2.C

用法六：作補(bǔ)語(yǔ)

Ⅰ.作賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)

1.I advised him smoking ，but he wouldn？蒺t listen.

A.give up B.to give up C.giving up D.to be given up

2.Whom would you like with you，John or me？

A.go B.have gone C.have go D.to go

解析 這兩題考查一些動(dòng)詞后面用動(dòng)詞不定式作賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)的情況。常見(jiàn)的結(jié)構(gòu)為：advise/allow/ask/expect/encourage/get/invite/like/persuade/remind/require/suppose/tell/want/warn/wish/would like/call on/depend on+sb.+（not） to do sth.。故第1題選擇B，第2題選擇D。

Ⅱ.作主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)

1.Passengers are permitted only one piece of hand luggage onto the plane.

A.to carry B.carrying C.to be carried D.being carried

2.He is thought foolishly.Now he has no one but himself to blame for losing the job.

A.to act B.to have acted C.acting D.having acted

解析 主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)的出現(xiàn)是因?yàn)樵瓉?lái)含有賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)的句子變成了被動(dòng)句，因此，原來(lái)的賓語(yǔ)就變成了新句子的主語(yǔ)，那么原來(lái)的賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)就變成了新句子的主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)了。因此，我們做題的時(shí)候只要將結(jié)構(gòu)還原成原來(lái)的主動(dòng)句就可以了。

1.分析題目知道句意是“旅客僅被允許攜帶一件手提行李上飛機(jī)”，permit sb. to do sth.結(jié)構(gòu)變成被動(dòng)為sb.be permitted to do sth.，因此選項(xiàng)為A。

2.本題考查sb./sth. be said/believed/known/supposed/reported/considered/found/thought...+to do sth./to be done/to have done/to have been done，本結(jié)構(gòu)中，用to do表示尚未發(fā)生的動(dòng)作，用to have done表示已經(jīng)發(fā)生的動(dòng)作。根據(jù)句意“他被認(rèn)為表現(xiàn)得很愚蠢”，表示已經(jīng)發(fā)生了的動(dòng)作，故選擇B。
