一. 动词-ing作主语的用法
动名词做主语往往表示经常性、习惯性的动作,在口语中也可以表示具体的动作。如:
Seeing is believing.
Helping her is my duty.
动词-ing作主语和不定式做主语一样,也可用
it作形式主语。如:
It’s rather tiring walking around in a city.
不定式作主语往往表示具体的特别是将来的动作。如:
It’s no use crying over spilt milk.
He realized that to go on like this was wrong.
(指抽象动作)
(指具体动作)
注意:
1、 动名词作主语表单数概念,谓语动词用单数形式。
Walking after supper is good for your health.
2、 动名词的复合结构作主语
动名词的复合结构是指物主代词、名词所有格是动名词逻辑上的主语、动名词是其逻辑上的谓语。
Your coming made us happy.
Your father’s cooking is very good.
— What do you think made Mary so upset?
— ________ (Lose) her new bicycle.
解析: losing her new bicycle是句子的主语,谓语made her so upset被省略;losing…在此表示具体的动作。
Losing??
_________ (Ignore) the difference between the two research findings will be one of the worst mistakes you make.
典型例题
Ignoring
【解析】本题考查非谓语动词。“will be”前面的“______ the difference between the two research findings”是主语部分,动词原形和过去分词不能直接作主语,习惯上用动名词作主语。且you和ignore是主谓关系,这里表示同时发生,而非先后发生,因此填Ignoring。
________ (Know) basic first-aid techniques will help you respond quickly to emergencies.
解析 : will help 是句子的谓语部分, _____ basic first-aid techniques 是句子的主语部分,起逻辑主语是 you,与 Known 构成主动关系,所以用动词 -ing 做主语
Knowing
It’s no use _______________ (complain) without taking action.
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意为:光抱怨而不采取任何行动是没用的。根据句型It’s no use doing sth.“做某事没有意义”,可知填complaining。
complaining
二. 动词-ing作宾语的用法
1.有些动词或短语动词后常用动名词作宾语,如admit, appreciate, avoid,can’t stand(不能忍受), consider, delay, mind, devote … to, dislike enjoy, escape, miss (错过), excuse, feel like, finish, forgive, get down to, give up, imagine, insist on, keep (on), look forward to, mention, pay attention to, practice, put off, stick to, suggest等。
注意:
当 need, want, require, worth后面接动词-ing也可以表示被动。
Your hair wants cutting.
The floor requires washing.
That novel is not worth reading.
1. I can’t imagine ________(do) that with them.
2. She looks forward every spring to _______ (walk) in the flower-lined garden.
doing
walking
It’s quite hot today. Do you feel like ______ (go) for a swim?
【解析】本题考察的是固定搭配feel like doing sth想要做某事;动词短语feel like后面只能接动名词做宾语。句义:今天很热,你想要去游泳吗?
典型例题
going
2. 在allow, advise, forbid, permit后直接跟动词-ing作宾语,如果有名词或代词作宾语,则构成“allow/advise/forbid/permit +名词/代词+不定式(宾语补足语) ”的形式。如:
We don’t allow smoking here.
We don’t allow anybody to smoke here.
3. 动词need, require, want意为“需要”时,后跟动名词的主动式或不定式的被动式作宾语,意义没有区别。如:
The window needs/requires/wants cleaning/to be cleaned.
4. 在begin, continue, love, like, hate, prefer, intend, start后用动名词和用不定式作宾语均可,意义没有多大区别。
5. 动词forget, go on, mean, regret, remember, stop, try, be used to, can’t help后跟动名词和跟不定式区别较大,须注意。
forget, regret, remember后跟动名词,动名词表示已经发生的动作;后跟不定式表示将要发生的动作。
