非谓语的定义及分类。
非谓语动词,顾名思义,是在英句子中不做谓语成分。在语法书中,对非谓语动词的定义为;在英语句子中,不作句子的谓语,而除谓语外其他语法功能的动词,叫做非谓语动词。非谓语动词有不定式(the infinitive);动名词(the gerund);分词(the present participle;(the past participle)。
一、 动词不定式。
动词不定式具有名词、形容词、副词等特征。
一)不定式的句法功能。
1.作主语。不定式作主语时,谓语用单数。往往用it 作形式主语,把不定式放在谓语后面。如:
it took us two hours to finish the job.
it is impossible for us to get there on time.
2)当不定式作主语的句子中又有一个不定式作表语时,不能用it is …to…的句型。
to believe him is to negate my own idea .
3)it is+ adj. of / for sb. to do sth. 结构中,当不定式的逻辑主语和前面的形容词可以构成系表结构时,用of, 否则用 for.
2.作宾语。
1)动词+不定式。如:
he managed to escape from the fire.
i find it hard to get along with him.
(2)动词+疑问词+to , 特殊疑问句+不定式”相当于名词,作宾语。如:
i don’t know what to do next/ how to do it next.
i h**e a little baby to look after.
3. 作状语,表示目的、结果、原因等,有时还有一些固定搭配的不定式短语,如in order to , so as to, so…as to, such …as to, …enough to, too…to等。
1)做目的状语,to, only to (仅仅为了), in order to, so as to, so(such)….as to…(如此以便)如:
he ran so fast as to catch the first bus.
he came to the school to see his son.
2)作结果状语,表事先没有预料到的,要放在句子后面。如:
he hurried to the post office only to find it was closed.
he searched the room only to find nothing.
3)做原因状语。如:
we were very excited to hear the news.
i’m glad to see you.
4)做条件状语。如:
to turn to the left, you could find a post office.
3.主语补足语。
不定式可放在be动词后面,构成表语。如:
the question is how to put it into practice.
his dream is to be a doctor.
注意:1.不定式在句中作表语时,对应的谓语动词用单数。
2.当助词是不定式时,表语不能用ving形式,可用不定式。
如:to see is to believe. (眼见为实)
4、独立结构。如:
to tell you the truth, i don’t agree with you.
to make matters worse, it began to rain.
二)不定式的时态和语态。
1、不定式的时态。
1)现在时:有时与谓语动词表示的动作同时发生,有时发生在谓语动词的动作之后。如:
he seems to know this. i hope to see you again.
2)完成时:表示的动作发生在谓语动词表示的动作之前。如:
i’m sorry to h**e given you so much trouble.
he seems to h**e caught a cold.
3)进行时:表示动作正在进行,与谓语动词表示的动作同时发生。如:
he seems to be eating something.
4)完成进行时:表示动作从过去某个时间开始,一直延续到现在,并有可能持续下去。如:
she is known to h**e been working on the problem for many years.
2、不定式的语态。
当不定式的逻辑主语是其动作的承受者时,就用被动式。如:
he was seen to enter the hall.
he asked to be sent to work in tibet.
省to 的动词不定式。
1、情态动词(除ought 外,ought to)
2、would rather, had better.
3、感官动词 see, watch, look at, notice, observe, hear, listen to, smell, feel 等后作宾补,省略 to.但在被动语态中 to 不能省略掉。如:
they were made to work the whole night.
4、使役动词 let, h**e, make.
5、由 and, or 和 than 连接的两个不定式,第二个 to 可以省去。如:he wants to move to france and marry the girl.
6、help 可带 to ,也可不带to, help sb. (to) do sth.
7、why…/why not…
8、but 和 except 前是动词 do 时,后面出现的动词用不带 to 的动词不定式。试比较。
he wants to do nothing but go out.
he wants to believe anything but to take the medicine.
9、通常在discover, imagine, suppose, think, understand 等词后,可以省去 to be .如:
he is supposed (to be) nice. 他应该是个好人。
二、动名词。
动名词既具有动词的一些特征,又具有名词的句法功能。
一)、动名词的句法功能。
1、作主语。
谓语用单数。it代替动名词作主语,常用于如下结构:
it’s no good/use doing如:
seeing is believing.
it’s no good waiting here.
2、作宾语。
i enjoy listening to music.
he often practices playing the piano in the evening.
3、作表语。
此时的动名词可以和主语调换位置。如:
my hobby is collecting stamps.
her job is washing, cleaning and taking care of the child.
4、作定语。
动名词作定语,一般表示用途。如:
a waiting room,a diving board,a reading room,a dining hall
there are a lot of swimming pools in the city.
二)、动名词的时态和语态。
动名词的动作发生在谓语动词所表示的动作之前,通常要用完成式,否则都用一般式。如:
we are interested in playing chess.
he was praised for h**ing finished the work ahead of time.
若主语是动名词所表示的动作的对象,动名词用被动语态。如:
we must do something to prevent water from being polluted.
he was afraid of being scolded by the teacher.
三、现在分词和过去分词。
区别:在语态上,现在分词表示主动意义,过去分词表示被动意义;
在时间上,现在分词表示的动作往往正在进行或者与谓语动词同时发生,过去分词表示的动作已经完成或没有一定的时间性。
如:falling le**es 正在下落的树叶 fallen le**es 已经落在地上的树叶。
一)、分词的句法功能。
1、作定语。
1) 单个分词作定语,分词前置。如:
the sleeping boy is my son.
the excited people rushed into the building.
2) 分词短语作定语,分词后置;分词修饰不定代词something等要后置;个别分词如give,left等作定语也后置。如:
the girl standing under the tree is my niece.
the building built last year is our library.
