11、词都可以作宾补,用法与宾语和宾补的关系以及动词类型有关。1) 宾语和宾补在逻辑上若有被动关系,即构成“动宾关系”,则用过去分词。例如:Hell have his watch repaired.You must make yourself heard.2) 宾语与宾补在逻辑上有主动关系,即构成“主谓关系”,则用现在分词和动词不定式。(1) ask, tell, order, want, wish, expect, teach, invite, advise, force, allow, beg, cause, warn, persuade, request, remind, enable, pe

13、也可用不带to的不定式来充当。但这两种情况在表达的意义上有所不相同:用现在分词作宾语补足语,强调分词动作在发生和进行之中;用不带to的不定式来充当宾语补足语,则着重说明不定式动作从发生到结束的全过程。因此,说话人可根据需要和可能来确定自己的选择。例如:I saw him crossing the street at six yesterday evening. 昨晚六点我看见他正在过街。I saw him cross the street yesterday.昨天我看见他过街去了。They heard him reading something aloud in the next room.
