不定式省to有四種情況:
使役動(dòng)詞 let,have,make 等后接不定式。如:Let him go! 讓他走!
would rather,had better后。如:You had better stay at home.你最好呆在家里。
Why... / why not...后。如:Why not have a good rest on Sunday? 為什么星期天不好好休息一下呢?
感官動(dòng)詞 see, watch, look at, hear, listen to, smell,feel, find 等后作賓補(bǔ),省to。如:I saw him dance. 我看見他跳舞。
注意:這些情況在被動(dòng)句中可千萬(wàn)不可省to !如:The boss made them work the whole night. 變成被動(dòng)句:They were made to work the whole night.
不定式的特殊用法:
It與不定式:動(dòng)詞不定式可以做主語(yǔ),但如果動(dòng)詞不定式太長(zhǎng),顯得頭重腳輕的,那么我們就可用形式主語(yǔ)it代替,而把真正主語(yǔ)(即不定式)放于句尾。
如: It is not difficult for me to study English well.(對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)學(xué)好英語(yǔ)是可能的。)
不定式還可以充當(dāng)句子的賓語(yǔ),但有些動(dòng)詞,如find,think,believe 等,在語(yǔ)法上不能接受不定式作賓語(yǔ),只有用it作形式賓語(yǔ),從而把動(dòng)詞不定式置于句尾。這樣的不定式可繼續(xù)充當(dāng)其賓語(yǔ)的作用。
如: I found it difficult to fall asleep.我發(fā)現(xiàn)很難入睡。
還有一點(diǎn):動(dòng)詞不定式,還可用在how,when,where,what,which 等疑問代詞或副詞之后,與其共同作賓語(yǔ)。如:I don't know how to use a computer.我不知道怎樣使用電腦。
too...to...和enough...to:too...to表達(dá)"太 ... 一致于不能..."。
enough ... to 表達(dá) "足以..."。
