解读动词不定式
误：We don’t allow to smoke in the lecture hall.

正：We don’t allow smoking in the lecture hall.

2. 误：She was the first person thinking of the idea.

正：She was the first person to think of the idea.
解析：当序数词或由序数词所修饰的名词带定语时，此定语通常由不定式来充当。
3. 误：We need some paper to write.

正：We need some paper to write on.
解析：作定语的不定式如果是不及物动词，或者不定式所修饰的名词或代词是不定式动作的地点、工具等，不定式后面须跟相应的介词。但如果不定式所修饰的名词是time, place或way时，不定式后面的介词习惯上省去。如：
He had no money and no place to live (in). 他没有钱，也没有住的地方。
4. 误：The question being discussed at tomorrow’s meeting is a very important one.

正：The question to be discussed at
tomorrow’s meeting is a very important one.
