7. I couldn’t help laughing.
8. Your coat needs brushing. 他承认钱是他拿的。 我禁不住笑了起来。你的大衣需要刷一下。一. 作主语
动名词作主语时，句子有三种形式：
①动名词直接置于句首主语的位置上。
1) 捉弄别人是我们万万不能干的.
_____________________ is something we should never do．
2) 学习新单词对我来说非常重要。
_________________ is very important for me．Playing tricks on othersLearning new words②用形式主语it，把真正的主语——动名词结构移置句尾。但这种句子形式有一定的限制，作表语的只能是某些形容词或少数名词，如useful，useless，good，fun；no use，worth等。如：
1) It’s worth making the effort．
这事值得去做。 2) 和夏洛克争辩是没有什么用的。
_______________________ with Shylock．
3) 想再解释一次有好处吗?
__________________________
4) 跟你在一起工作是令人愉快的。
_____________________________It is useless trying to argueIs it any good trying to explain?It is pleasant working with you．③ 在there be结构中作主语，这种结构的意思相当于“It is impossible to do… ” 如：
1) There is no hiding of evil but not to do it．
若要人不知，除非己莫为。2) 这种事开不得玩笑。
Here is ________ about such matter.
3) 无法知道他什么时候离开。

做……没有道理
There is/was no use doing
干……无意义
There is/was nothing worse than doing
没有比……更糟的
There is/was no point doing
干……无意义二. 动名词作宾语有两种情况。一是有些动词只能后接动名词作宾语；二是有些动词既可后接动名词也可后接不定式作宾语。
① 只能后接动名词作宾语的动词, 常见的有avoid, consider, enjoy, keep, finish, suggest, dislike, delay, escape, cannot help, imagine, mind, miss, practise, cannot stand等。如：1) 我不能不去。
I can’t avoid going．
2) 你是否考虑过找一位挚友?

3) 我们必须设法避免犯同样的错误。

5)人们忍不住嘲笑那个愚蠢的人。
People _________________________
foolish man．
这类动词还有：excuse, fancy, give
up, put off, risk等。feel like having a walkcouldn’t help laughing at that②既可接动名词又可接不定式作宾语的动词，常见的有：begin, start, continue, like, love, prefer, mean, forget, remember, hate等。
A. 在like, love, hate, prefer等动词之后，用-ing或不定式意义上没有什么不同，只是侧重点有些不同，动名词表示泛指的动作，不定式表示具体的一次性动作。B. 在begin/start, continue之后，用动名词和不定式，意义无甚区别，尤其是当主语是人的时候。
C. 在动词forget，remember，regret之后，用动名词与不定式意义不同。动名词表示动作先于谓语发生，不定式表示后于谓语动作，如：I remember posting the letter．
我记得我已把信寄了。
2) I’ll remember to post the letter．
我会记着去寄信的。
3) I shall never forget seeing the famous
writer．
_____________________________ _____我永远不会忘记见到过那位著名作家。 4) Don’t forget to write to your mother．

_______________________
6) 我遗憾地告诉你我不能接受你的建议。
___________________________ _______不要忘了给你母亲写信。I regret missing the report．I regret to say I can’t take your advice．D. 在try，mean之后，意义各不相同，如try to do (设法)，try doing (试试)，mean to do (打算，有意要做)，mean doing (意思是，意味着)。如：
1) 我们必须设法及时把一切搞好。
We must try to get everything done in time.2) 我们用别的方法做这工作试试。
Let’s try doing the working in some
other way.
3) I didn’t mean to make you angry.

4) Your plan would mean spending hours.
____________________________我并不想叫你生气。你的计划意味着要花费几个小时。 E. go on doing 和 go on to do

1) 请接着做这同一个练习。
________________ the same exercise．
2) 请做另外一个练习。
_______________ the other exercise．Please go on doingPlease go on to doF. stop doing与stop to do: stop doing 停止做，stop to do停下正在干的事去干另一件事。如：
1) 我们停止了交谈。____________________________
2) 我们停了下来去谈话。____________________________We stopped talking．We stopped to talk．一、-ing形式作定语
1. 单个动词的-ing形式作定语位于被修饰名词的前面，既可以表示被修饰者的作用或功能，也可以表示被修饰者的动作或状态。如：
building materials
= materials for building 建筑材料-ing形式作定语, 宾语补足语和表语的用法drinking water
= water for drinking 饮用水
a walking stick
= a stick for walking 手杖
a reading room
= a room for reading 阅览室
a writing desk
= a desk for writing 写字台 tiring music
= music that is tiring 烦人的音乐
a surprising result
= a result that is surprising
一个惊人的结果
2. -ing形式短语作定语时, 放在所修饰的名词之后, 并且在意思上相当于一个定语从句。如： They lived in a room facing the street.
= They lived in a room that faces the
street.
他们住在一间面朝街的房子。
The man standing there is Peter’s
father.
= The man who is standing there is
Peter’s father.
站在那儿的那个人是彼得的父亲。 Anybody swimming in this river will be fined.
= Anybody who is swimming in this river will be fined.
在这条河里游泳的任何一个人都会被罚款。3. -ing形式短语也可以用作非限制定语，相当于一个非限制性定语从句，这时，它与句子其他部分用逗号分开。如：
His brother, working as a teacher, lives in Beijing.
= His brother, who is working as a teacher, lives in Beijing.
他那个当教师的哥哥住在北京。 The apple tree, swaying gently in the breeze, had a good crop of fruit.
= The apple tree, which was swaying gently in the breeze, had a good crop of fruit.
那棵苹果树硕果累累，在微风中轻轻摇曳。二、-ing形式作宾语补足语
1. 1) 动词-ing形式作宾语补足语常放在宾语后面，表示一个正在进行的主动性的动作，强调一个过程或一种状态。如：
When we returned to the school, we found a stranger standing at the entrance.
当我们回到学校时, 发现一个陌生人站在大门口。 We found the snake eating the eggs.
我们发现蛇正在吃鸡蛋。
I found a bag lying on the ground.
我发现地板上放着一个包。
The boss kept the workers working
the whole night.
那老板让工人整夜地工作。 2）当主句转换为被动结构时, 原来作宾语补足语的动词-ing形式便转换为主语补足语。如：
They found the result very satisfying.
= The result is found very satisfying.
这个结果很令人满意。 They heard him singing in the next room.
= He was heard singing in the next room.
有人听到他在隔壁房间唱歌。
We mustn’t keep them waiting.
= They mustn’t be kept waiting.
千万不能让他们等。2. 能用-ing形式作宾语补足语的几类动词:
1) 表示感觉和心理状态的动词，常见的有see, hear, feel, smell, find, notice, observe, look at, listen to等。如：
We saw a light burning in the window.
I felt somebody patting me on the shoulder. Can you smell anything burning?
As he spoke, he observed everybody looking at him curiously.
Listen to the birds singing.
I didn’t notice him waiting.
2) 表示指使意义的动词，常见的有have, set, keep, get, catch, leave等。如：I won’t have you doing that.
This set me thinking.
I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.
I can’t get the clock going again.
You won’t catch me doing that again.
你看吧，我决不会做那种事了。 3. see, hear, feel, watch等动词之后用-ing形式和动词不定式作宾语补足语的区别：
We passed by the classmates and saw
the teacher making the experiment.
我们走过教室，看见老师在做实验。
（只在走过教室的刹那间，看见老师
正在做实验） ① 前者表示动作正在进行，而后者表示
（或强调）动作从开始到结束的全过程。如:We sat an hour and watched the teacher
make the experiment.
我们坐了一个小时，看老师做实验。
（一个小时之内一直在看老师作实验）
② 如果宾语补足语是短暂性动词，动词不定式短语表示一次动作， 而-ing形式则表示反复动作。如：
We heard the door slam.
We heard the door slamming. (反复动作)(一次动作) 三、-ing形式作表语
-ing形式作表语时放在系动词之后，用来泛指某种动作或行为，以说明主语的身份、性质或情况。如：
Her hobby is painting.
她的业余爱好是画画。
My job is looking after the children.
我的工作就是照顾这些孩子。His concern for his mother is most touching.
他对母亲的关爱很感人。
She was very pleasing in her appearance. Point out the usage of the –ing form.

Unit 3A taste of English humourWriting如何写幽默故事
Think of a funny English or Chinese story and tell it to your partner. Write down the story.
Use a logical order: explain the situation, what happened and then give the punchline.
Read it through when you have finished checking for mistakes.
Read it to your partner and ask for advice.
Rewrite your story and put it into a class collection of funny stories.幽默故事属于记叙文类写作，写作时除了要具备记叙文的六要素外，还要特别注意幽默故事的特殊性。幽默故事通过讽喻、双关等修辞手法，合乎情理而又出人意料的故事情节使人感到好笑；同时，要在塑造人物、展开情节上下功夫，使其引人入胜。
幽默故事一般都比较简短，或表现生活中的一些场景，或以对话的形式出现。 写作时应注意以下几点：
1. 确定文体：幽默故事大多属于记叙文。
2. 主体时态：文章以一般过去时或一般现在时为主。
3. 主体人称：第一人称或第三人称。
4. 内容要点：①故事场景；②展开情节；③意外结尾。思路引导
写幽默故事首先要设计好故事发生的场景，即时间、地点、主要人物和发生的事。做好前文的铺垫之后，故事最后的点睛之笔（punchline）才显得既在情理之中又出乎意料之外。相声中称之为“抖包袱”，即把之前设置的悬念揭开，或者把前文铺垫酝酿好的笑料关键部分说出来。写幽默故事时要注意前文的逻辑顺序，结尾处要与人们的生活常识或经历相矛盾，这样才能使人联系上下文体会到幽默所在。写英文幽默故事，还应注意东西方人思维方式的差异以及汉英语言文化背景的差异。语言积累
