28、tor.It is not easy to learn English well.如果要表示动词不定式的动作是谁做的,可以在动词不定式的前面加一个由介词for引导的短语,称为不定式的复合结构。例如:Its good for us to read English aloud in the morning.对我们来说每天早晨大声读英语是很有益的。2动名词作主语His being elected our chairman made us think of a lot.他当选为我们的主席使我们想起了许多许多。动名词作主语时,对于一些比较长的动名词短语,一般采用“It is.”和“There is.”两

30、含义有所不同。试比较:Have you got 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 got 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”)(3)用不定式作定语的几种情况:不定式表将来。The car to be bought is for his sister.要买的这辆车是给他姐姐的。用来修饰被序数词、最高级或no,all,any等限定的中心词,且与中心词为主动关系。He was the best man to do the
31、job.他是做这个工作的最佳人选。2动名词作定语动名词作定语常常置于被修饰词之前,表示被修饰的名词的用途或者性能,相当于that/which can be used for doing结构。Do you know if the sleeping pill has its side effect? (Do you know if the pill that/which can be used for sleeping has its side effect?)你知道这安眠药有副作用吗?3分词作定语(1)作定语用的分词如果是一个单词,一般放在被修饰词的前面;如果是分词短语作定语,则放在被修饰词的后
32、面;分词作定语相当于定语从句;过去分词作定语,它和被修饰词之间往往是被动关系(及物动词),或已经完成(不及物动词);现在分词作定语,它和被修饰词之间往往是主动关系。The road was blocked by a fallen tree (a tree that/which had fallen)路被倒下的树堵塞了。He was hit by a falling tree (a tree that/which was falling) and killed on the spot.他被倒下来的树击中,当场死亡。(2)“being过去分词”作定语表示被动和正在进行;“to be过去分词”表被动
33、和将来。The house being built (The house that/which is being built) will be our new library.正在建筑中的这所房子将是我们的图书馆。The question to be discussed (The question that/which will be discussed) tomorrow is very important.明天将要讨论的问题很重要。四、不定式和分词作宾语补足语1不定式作宾补(1)动词不定式作宾补省略to的情况:see,watch,notice,observe,look at;hear,li
34、sten to;feel等感官动词,以及have,let,make等使役动词后面加宾语补足语时,不定式符号to要省略,但如果句子变成被动结构,就必须带to。help的宾补可以加to也可以不加to(五看、三让、两听、一感觉、半帮助)。Did you notice anyone leave the house?你注意到有人离开这房子了吗?Was anyone noticed to leave the house?可有人被注意到离开这座房子了吗?(2)后接动词不定式作宾语补足语的常见动词和动词短语有:wish,cause,ask,beg,expect,force,invite,permit,pers
35、uade,want,warn,like,order,allow,advise,request,require,get,remind,teach,send,call on,wait for,would like/love,prefer,arrange for,depend on等。The doctor advised me to give up smoking.医生建议我要戒烟。They called on the writer to make a speech.他们要求那位作家作一次演讲。(3)think,consider,find等动词后作宾语补足语通常是“to be形容词或名词”结构,to
36、 be常可省略。This award is considered (to be) a great honor.这项奖项被认为是极大的荣誉。She thought him (to be) kind and generous.她认为他宽厚仁慈。2分词作宾补分词可以跟名词或代词构成复合宾语,并且名词或代词与分词之间存在逻辑上的主谓关系,主动用现在分词,被动用过去分词。He kept the car waiting at the gate.他让小汽车在门口等着。The teacher spoke loudly in order to make himself heard by the students

43、宾语宾语补足语”结构,宾语it(指代music)与perform之间存在被动关系,且此处表示去现场听正在被演奏的音乐,故应用being performed作宾语补足语。5After receiving the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress,Anne Benedict went on all the people who had helped in her career.(2015陕西,17)Ato thank BthankingChaving thanked Dto have thanked答案A解析句意为:在获得奥斯卡最佳女配角奖之后,安妮本尼迪克特继续
