不定式 不定式由“to+动词原形”构成,其否定形式是“not/never to do”,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。不定式可以作主语、宾语、补足语、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用“for+名词或代词宾格”构成。
动词不定式的作用 Functions of Infinitive 1 主语 (subject) 2 表语 (predicative) 3 宾语 (object) 4 主|宾补 (subject|object complement) 5 定语 (attribute) 6 状语 (adverbial) 7 独立结构 (absolute construction)
1 不定式作主语 (subject) To keep smiling is healthy for you. It’s important to look up the new words in the dictionary when you study English. 单个不定式作主语时,谓语动词用单数。 若不定式太长,往往用it作形式主语,不定式后置。
注 意 It is +adj+for sb +to do sth(如果说明不定式表示的动作的发出者的话,要在不定式的前加for引起的短语,构成“for+名词/代词宾格)+不定式。) Eg,It is easy for him to work out this math problem. It is +adj +of sb+to do sth(表示人的品行形容词;clever,kind,nice,wise,foolish,polite,stupid,silly)作表语时,不定式前常用of引起的短语。 Eg,It was foolish of him to make such a mistake. =He was foolish to make such a mistake.
