随着英语的逐渐演变,在某些简单句中,相对应的句子成分不能用单词进行描述。
主(多喝水)+ is great for your health.
I love 宾(踢足球).
My hobby is 表(玩电脑游戏).
I has bought a book(王先生写的)等等。
我们发现,在上面的模型里,没有办法用一个单词进行描述,所以在演变的过程中,出来一个新的语法成分,叫做非谓语动词短语(to do ,doing, done,注意done与did的区别)
注:
1、只加不定式作宾语的动词:plan, demand, promise, help, prepare, decide, refuse, choose, wish/hope, expect, fail, pretend, manage, determine, beg, arrange, threaten, claim, hesitate, happen等。
2、只加动名词作宾语的动词:admit, avoid, consider, escape, imagine, mind, miss, practice, suggest, advise, allow, permit, risk, prevent, resist, deny, forbid,advocate, forgive, acknowledge, postpone, delay, fancy, recall,finish/complete, acknowledge等
3、下面这些短语只能加doing作宾语:be addicted to, be accustomed to, get down to, lead to ,contribute to, devote oneself to , object to, look forward to, owing to, become/get/be used to, pay attention to等等。
4、既可以加to do, 也可以加doing的动词,且意思很相近的动词:intend, attempt, continue, begin, start等。
5、接to do 和doing 作宾语意义差别很大的动词:mean, forget, try, go on等。
To swim in the river is a great pleasure.(不定式)
Smoking does harm to the health.(动名词)
He pretended not to see me.(不定式短语)
I enjoy listening to popular music.(动名词短语)
Our monitor is always the first to enter the classroom.(不定式短语)
The boy playing football(动名词短语) is my brother
The dog killed by a car(过去分词短语) is very fierce.
注意:非谓语动词短语作定语时,要放在修饰词的后面,形容词做定语时,放在修饰词的前面。
