三、构成动词不定式的动词与被修饰词之间的关系
1. 主谓关系：主谓关系指的是被修饰词是构成动词不定式的动词的逻辑主语。此时的动词不定式在
意义上相当于一个定语从句。
We need someone to help with the work. = We need someone that can help with the work.
我们需要有人来帮忙做这项工作。
2. 动宾关系：动宾关系指的是被修饰词是构成动词不定式的动词的逻辑宾语，所以作定语的不定式
不能带宾语。

3. 同位关系：同位关系指的是不定式对所修饰的名词的内容起解释、说明作用。这类被修饰词有两
类，一种是由动词派生出来的抽象名词，如plan, decision等，另一种是如campaign, evidence,
opportunity, position, power, project, reason, right等的抽象名词。
My plan to go abroad has failed.
我出国的计划没能实现。
