记 一 记 ——精准考点
一、动词不定式的语法功能
1.作主语和表语
动词不定式作主语表示具体的动作,尤其是某一次的动作;动词不定式作表语,说明主谓的内容。“be”后面的不定式和主语有逻辑上的主谓关系时,表示“要做的事情”。

在这条河里游泳是危险的。

(3) 在 learn,decide,know,wonder,tell,understand,explain,teach,advise,find out等词后常用“疑问词+不定式”作宾语。
Iwonder what to donext.我想知道下一步做什么。
He drew a diagram toshow us how to getto his house.
他画了一张草图,告诉我们到他家该怎么走。
3.作补语
动词不定式作宾补,其动作多发生在句子谓语动词动作之后(具有“将来”的意义)。常用在ask,tell,force,get,allow,want,wish,like,hate,prefer,intend,expect,encourage,advise,persuade,permit,request,order,warn,cause等动词后。

他们不允许他在超市前停车。
注意:在see,watch,hear,observe,look at,notice,feel,have,make,let等动词后,如果表示经常性的动作或已经完成的动作,要用不带to的不定式。在被动语态中作主语补足语的动词不定式要加to。
Isawhimbreak intothe house.我看见他闯入了房子。
We oftenhearhertalk aboutyou.我们经常听到她谈论你。
She is often heardto singin the room.有人经常听到她在房间里唱歌。
4.作定语
不定式作定语多和被修饰的名词具有“动宾关系”,即被修饰的名词是不定式动作的承受者;如果不定式是不及物动词,就要在其后面加上相应的介词。
I am hungry.Please give me somethingto eat.
我饿了,请给我些东西吃。
Brown has something importantto deal withat present.
目前布朗有重要的事情要处理。
注意:在last,first,second等表示顺序的词后要用动词不定式作定语。

昨天我们班长是最后一个离开教室的。
5.作状语
动词不定式放在句首常作目的状语,放在only后作结果状语,放在表示“高兴、快乐、生气和遗憾”的形容词后作原因状语。
To sleep latein the morning,Bob turned off the alarm.
为了在早上多睡会,鲍勃关掉了闹钟。
He hurried to the cinemaonly to findthat all the tickets had been sold out.
他匆匆忙忙赶到电影院,结果却发现票售完了。
I am veryglad to knowyou are coming.
得知你要来,我非常高兴。
二、动词不定式的时态
意义一般式 其动作与句中的谓语动词同时发生或在其后发生进行式 其动作与句中的谓语动词同时发生完成式 其动作发生在句子谓语动词的动作之前主动语态 被动语态t o d o t o b e d o n e t o b e d o i n g——t o h a v e d o n e t o h a v e b e e n d o n e
动词不定式的一般式表示几乎和谓语同时发生或谓语动词之后发生的动作;不定式的完成式表示在谓语动词的动作之前发生;不定式的进行式表示和谓语动词同时发生的动作。
You are saidto be writinga paper on pollution.据说你正在写篇关于污染的论文。

学 一 学 ——高效方法
1.作目的状语,一般要用不定式。

【答案与解析】to be trained语境:当问他为什么到那里去时,他说他被派往那里接受太空飞行训练。分析句子成分可知,所填的词作目的状语,所以用动词不定式。由于train和he有逻辑上的动宾关系,所以用不定式的被动语态。
2.在名词后作定语时,表示动作尚未发生,要用动词不定式。
There are still many problems _______(solve) before we are ready for a long living on the Moon.
【答案与解析】to be solved 语境:在我们准备去月球上长期生活之前,这里还有很多问题有待解决。根据语境可知,很多问题还没有被解决,是表示将要发生的事情,所以使用不定式。而这些问题又是要被解决的,所以使用不定式的被动语态。
3.作结果状语,表示意外或不好的结果时,用动词不定式。
He hurried to the booking office only _______(tell)that all the tickets had been sold out.
【答案与解析】to be told 语境:他匆忙赶到了售票处,却被告知所有的票都售完了。分析句子成分可知,所填的词在句中作结果状语,由于是意想不到的结果,所以用动词不定式。he和tell有逻辑上的动宾关系,所以用被动语态。
4.作定语,表示将要发生的被动的动作要用动词不定式的被动语态。
Will you attend the meeting _________(hold) next week?
【答案与解析】to be held语境:你会参加下周举行的会议吗?动词不定式作定语,根据时间状语可知,hold所表示的动作还没有发生,所以用动词不定式的被动语态。
