非谓语动词
不定式
两种不定式
带to的不定式
I've come to seek your advice.
不带to的不定式（Bare Infinitive）
What you said made me think.
不定式在句中充当的成分
1. 构成谓语
不带to的不定式和某些助动词构成谓语：
就是说助动词，情态动词后的谓语动词都是不带to的不定式咯...
Shall I help you?
Would you like me to interpret for you?
He won't tell me his address.
不带to的不定式和情态动词构成谓语：

与带to的不定式的搭配
不定式和某些动词构成谓语：

不定式和某些形容词构成复合谓语：

定于
不定式和某些被动结构构成被动语态的复合谓语：
被动语态的谓语是

一起构成谓语
by...看成是状语

You are expected to speak at the meeting.
2. 作主语
不定式可直接作主语：
To compromise appears advisable.
To ignore this might have serious consequences.
To err is human, to forgive, divine.
更多情况下用it做先行主语，而真正主语不定式放到句子后面去：
功能：避免主语显得太长
It+be+形容词+不定式：
It's hard(difficult) to say which is better.
It's foolish(silly) to act like that.
It is essential(important) to know all the facts.
It's still possible to catch the train.

It's a shame to deceive your friends.
It+动词（宾语）+不定式：

It requires patience to be a teacher.
It takes two to make a quarrel.
It+be+介词短语+不定式：

It's beyond me to explain these.
It is just like you to be always ready to help a friend.
3. 作宾语
部分谓语动词的固定搭配
许多动词都可跟不定式宾语

try to, need to, help to, expect to, vote to, wait to, dare to, continue to....
p 289
不定式有时和一连接代（副）词一道构成宾语.
He discovered how to open the safe.
I'll ask him how to operate the machine.
She showed me which button to press.
Have you decided what to do next?
还有learn, find out, remember, forgot, didn't know, wondered...
有时还可以用这种结构作介词宾语.
He wrote a book on how to protect the environment.
They were worried about how to find the necessary equipment.
Then there is the problem of what courses to offer.
偶尔可使用先行词it做形式上的宾语，把不定式转放到句子后面去.
I have long had it in mind to answer your letter.
She took it on herself to apologize to me.
4. 构成复合宾语
部分谓语动词的固定搭配
复合宾语
就是：“名词（代词）+不定式”
许多动词可跟一个由“名词（代词）+不定式”构成的复合宾语.
I asked George to convey my best wishes to his mother.
My boss told me to type out two letters.
He likes(wants) the students to eat well.
常见的这类动词有：
advise, allow, ask, beg, bride, cause, challenge, command, compel, convince, direct, enable, want, remind, invite, force...
有些动词可跟带有to be的复合宾语
I consider him to be the best candidate.
I supposed him to be away from home.
They believed these principles to be universally true.
还有也用于此类的动词：
declared, discovered, felt, found, judged, know, shown...
当此类动词的不定式是完成形式或进行形式时，此时不定式不是be
His record shows him to have worked hard at school.
I considered him to have acted disgracefully.
I judge them to have finished.
跟复合宾语的动词有时可用于被动结构，这是可说形成一种复合谓语：
She was told to wait at the door.
You are not expected to work such long hours.
This vase is estimated to be 2,000 years old.
这类结构中的不定式可用完成式或进行式
He was rumoured to have married a widow.
They are believed to have found a cure for cancer.
They were thought to be hiding in the woods.
He is supposed to be washing a car.
有些动词可根由不带to的不定式构成的复合宾语
Did you see anyone enter the house?
I heard her lock the door.
She won't let me do it.
但这类句子变为被动结构时，不定式前要加 to:
在listen to和look at后面也可跟这种结构：
在help后的不定式可加to,也可不加to（美国人不加to时较多），但被动结构中要加to:
有些“动词+介词”结构后也可根由不定式构成的复合宾语：
She shouted to me to come over.
She appealed to women to participate in the struggle.
The teacher called on me to answer this question.
He pealed with her to go back.
longed for, conting on, relied on, depend on, prevail upon, care for, wait for...
某些动词后可跟先行词it, 借此把构成复合宾语的不定式放后边：
I find it easy to get on with Jim.
He thought it best to be on his guard.
The judge deemed it inadvisable to hear the appeal.
这类动词还有： made, feel, regard, think, consider, made...
5. 作定语
修饰物
We have a lot of things to do today.
Do you have any suggestions to offer?
I've got two letters to write tonight.
有时需用不定式被动形式
There are a lot of things to be done.
He is dead. There's nothing to be done now.
修饰人
He was the first guest to arrive.
He was the second man to hear the news.
He is not a man to bow before difficulties.
有时需用不定式被动形式

She will be a suitable person to be given this job.
固定搭配：不少名词后可用不定式作定语
It's time to go bed.
There's no reason to doubt his word.
I haven't had a chance to think yet.
还有类似的名词：opportunity, way, need, efforts, wish, tendency, right, ambition.
有些名词常根不定式搭配作定语，是因为其同根词常和不定式搭配作定语
promise---promised
I don't trust his promise to come for a visit.
He promised to come for a visit.
其它同源例子
plan---plans
attempt---attempted
offer---offered
decision---decided
refusal---refused
failure---failed
ability---able
anxiety---anxious
eagerness---eager
willingness---willing
readiness---ready
有时一个不定式（短语）作定语的作用接近于一个定语从句（大多表示要发生的事）：
That will be right procedure to follow(=you should follow).
Soup, and then steak to follow, please.
That would be a rash step to take.
不定式还可和关系代词which联用作定语, 但前面需要加介词
She must have time in which to pack.
They would raise some money with which to by medicines.
在个别名词后可用不定式作同位语（说明这个词的内容）
Then came the order to evacuate the city.
They had recieved instructions to watch him.
6. 做状语
用于“be+形容词+不定式”这种结构

To be fair(to him), he wasn't entirely to blame.

7. 作表语
不定式有时可作表语，说明主语的具体内容：

不定式作表语还可表示其他东西（如目的等）：

不定式的动词特点

不定式的不同形式
一般式
主动形式
to do
被动形式
to be done
完成式
主动形式
to have done
被动形式
to have been done
当不定式表示的动作在谓语所表示情况之前发生需用
a.在句中构成谓语
I happened to have been there once.
b.充当主语
What a mistake it is to have come here!
c.宾语
They claimed to have shot down five planes.
d.状语

e.构成另一类复合谓语，即复合宾语的被动结构

进行式
主动形式
to be doing
当不定式表示一个正在进行的动作时需用
a.谓语

d.定语

e.状语

逻辑主语（Logical Subject）
不是一定是真正的主语，而是意思上履行不定式动作的人或物.
逻辑主语可能是句子的
主语
I had a lot of letters to write.
宾语
I'll give you something to read.
判断逻辑主语的意义-----判断是否用被动形式
当不定式和其逻辑主语有被动关系时，不定式需要用被动形式.
当句中没有适当的词可作不定式逻辑主语时， 不定式前面有时有一个由介词for引导的短语，来表示它的逻辑主语.
Here are some books for you to read on the way.
这种短语在句中可以和不定式一道起作用，如：
作主语
It won't be easy for you to find a new job.
作定语
It's time for you to reconsider your decision.
作状语
He stood aside for her to pass.
作表语
The simplest thing is for him to resign at once.
在少数情况下可用of引导的短语，表示不定式的逻辑主语
但只限于那些作表语的形容词能修饰人时，才能在不定式前用of领导的短语作状语
It was kind of you(You were kind) to help us.
不定式结构的特殊情况
不定式动词的省略
为了避免重复，有时不定式中的主要动词可以省略，只剩下to
Would you like to come with us? ----Yes, I'de love to.
在个别情况下to既可以保留也可以一道省略
She may go if she likes (to).
但在used to, be going to, mean to, ought to, try to, plan to等结构后，当不定式省略时，to通常是保留的
当不定式作表语时，to有时也可以省略
All I did was (to) press the button.
并列的不定式
当有两个或更多不定式并列使用时，通常只在第一个不定式前加to, 在后面的不定式前to常省略.
We ought to read more and have more practice.
但如果两者有对比关系，每个不定式前都应该带to.
To go or not to go, its a question.
分裂不定式（Split Infinitive)
有时to和后面的动词间可插入一个副词：
They have started a drive to further improve the miners' working condation.
在口语中常避免，如果可能，可以把副词放后面去
to improve the miners' working condation further.
在个别情况下，可用不定式构成或引导一个句子：
a.不带to的不定式
Why not wait for a couple more days?
b.带to的不定式
To think he would come to anything like that!
动名词
起名词作用的动词
介于名词和动词之间的词，只占有名词会占有的句子结构
但有部分时态，语态变化

作为名词

I'm ashamed of my self for it.
其它的例如：gifted, indebted...
注意和被动语态的差距："be+表语”结构表示一种状态，而被动语态表示一种动作。
be+表语结构（表示状态)
客观事实，没有强调改变的过程
The shop is closed now.
The window is broken.
被动结构（表示动作）
强调动作，改变的行为
It's usually closed at 8 o'clock.
It was broken by Tim.
“be+表语”结构都包含be或其它系动词加过去分词，而被动结构必须与其相应的主动结构在时态上一致
Tim broke the window.
用作定语
很多是表情绪的过去分词
Mr. Knight gave a satisfied smile.
其它搭配若： frightened glance, worried look, pleased look, confused sorrows, embarrassed manner, agitated voice, puzzled expression.
许多其它的作定语的过去分词
printed matter, cooked food, fried eggs, dried fruit, united front, required courses, a forced smile.
许多是由过去分词构成的合成形容词
air-conditioned rooms
a simply-furnished apartment
hand-made goods
strongly motivated students
绝大多数过去分词都有被动的意思，但有少数过去分词有完成的意思。
有些以-ed结尾的词，并不是过去分词，而是由名词变来的形容词。
有些合成形容词也是由“名词+ed”构成的
absend-minded
cold-blooded
kind-hearted
open-minded
short-sighted
armoured cars
skilled workers
a gifted boy
escaped prisoners
a retired professor
The risen sun(=the sun that has just risen)
an exploded bomb(=a bomb that has exploded)
faded flowers
swollen eyes
fallen leaves
有些过去分词短语跟在所修饰词后面，作用接近于一个定语从句.
就是定语从句省略了关系代词
What's the language spoken(=that is spoken) in that country?
Is there anything planned for tonight?
跟在名词后的可能是一个单一的过去分词，而不是短语.
They didin't allow us to make the alterations suggested.
Is there anybody injured?
作定语的过去分词常指已经完成的动作，若要表示现在正在进行的动作，要用过去分词的进行形式，也就是现在分词的被动形式：being done.
What do you think of the summit meeting being held in Vienna?
构成复合宾语
固定搭配
在某些动词后可用过去分词构成复合宾语.
We'll get her X-rayed.
I've recently had my appendix removed.
还有类似结构：heard ....done, seen...done, watched....done, 还有wished, want, felt, Keep, made, like, found, declared, acknowledged, consider...等词
介词with后有时也可以跟这类复合宾语.
He sat with his arms clasped round his knees.
做状语
过去分词有时可用作状语，修饰谓语（多放在句首，也可放在后面或插在中间）
Seen from the hill, the city looks magnificent.
Convinced that they were trying to poison her, she refused to eat anything.
She entered, accompanied by her mother.
有时一个单独的过去分词也可用作状语
depressed, he went to see his elder sister.
过去分词有时和连词一起用
I went on talking, though continually interrupted by George.
在少数情况下，过去分词可以引导一个句子状语
分词前有时还有一个逻辑上的主语
Everybody, myself excepted, said no.
Judged by ordinary standards, he was reliable.
过去分词只有一种形式，且大多数情况下都有被动的意思
