Unit 15 Destinations单元语法知识归纳
非谓语动词用法小结（1）——动名词
1。动名词作主语与不定式作主语的区别：动名词作主语表示一般或抽象的多次行为；不定式作主语往往表示具体的一次性的动作。
Playing with fire is dangerous。玩火是危险的。 （泛指玩火）
To play with fire will be dangerous。玩火会很危险。 （指一次具体行为）
2。动词在句型“It is no use/no good/not any use/not any good/useless…”中作主语时，必须用动名词形式。
It’s no use talking too much about it。对这件事谈论太多没用。
3。句型“It is worth…”中的worth之后须用动名词的主动式。
The new type of bicycle is well worth buying。这种新型自行车很值得买。
4。动词＋动名词/不定式：
① 下列动词或短语动词后只接动名词作宾语，而不跟不定式：finish； enjoy； advise； allow； admit； avoid； consider； delay； excuse； look forward to； listen to； devote to； be/get used to； object to； stick to； give up； insist on； imagine； include； keep on； keep； mind； miss； put off； practise； risk； suggest； escape； appreciate； permit； forbid；can’t help（禁不住）； can’t stand（无法忍受），feel like 等。
② 下列动词后既可跟不定式，也可跟动名词：
A。 like； love； begin； start； continue； prefer等动词后跟不定式或动名词意义基本相同。
He continued going over his lessons。/He continued to go over his lessons。他继续复习功课。
注意：A。 上述动词后用动名词往往表示一般或抽象的多次性行为，用不定式则表示具体的或一次性的动作。
She began to play the piano half an hour ago。她半小时前开始弹钢琴。
She always begins playing the piano after supper。她总是晚饭后开始弹钢琴。
在love； hate； prefer等动词之后用动名词或不定式无多大区别。但说话人有所指的时候，通常用不定式。
start； begin； continue在书面语中多后接不定式。在should /would like/love等短语后接不定式。
B。 下列动词后跟不定式和动名词意义完全不同：
5。动名词的复合结构：动名词的复合结构由物主代词或人称代词宾格、名词所有格或普通格加动名词构成。在句子开头必须用名词的所有格或物主代词。由人称代词宾格或名词的普通格与动名词构成的动名词复合结构，常用于口语中。动名词的复合结构中的逻辑主语是无生命的名词或抽象名词时，常用人称代词宾格或名词的普通格。
His coming late for class made the teacher very angry。
他上课迟到了，这让老师很生气。
I don’t like Tom’s/Tom smoking in the classroom。
我不喜欢汤姆在教室里吸烟。
