一 定义 A 动词不定式的构成就是在to后面加动词原形:to do;动词不定式有各种时态和语态:


例句:

1 to do

  She hates to be threatened by anybody.

5 to have been done

D 动词不定式除了不能直接做谓语外 (可以与连系动词一起作系表结构),能做句中任何成分。
二 不同功能

A 做主语:

  To adapt is to survive.

 To see is to believe.
 To find a good job is the dream of every graduate.

注意:

1 如果动词不定式作主语时太长,谓语太短,我们可以用it作形式主语,而把真正的主语放到后面。

 OK: To finish this difficult job in just one hour is impossible.
  Better: It is impossible to finish this difficult job in just one hour.

2 False: It is important of us to remember these new English words.
  Right: It is important for us to remember these new English words.
 
  因为我们不可以说:we are important.

 False: It is kind for you to help me lift this heavy box to the third floor.
  Right: It is kind of you to help me lift this heavy box to the third floor.

  因为我们可以说:you are kind.


B 做宾语:
   I have decided to do this business as my priority.   By 2005, this firm hopes to have opened another branch in America.   I don’t know how to find this address under the darkness.

  注意:

  如果动词不定式作宾语太长,我们可以用it作形式宾语,而把真正的宾语放在后面。

Bad: I found to work with him difficult.
Good: I found it difficult to work with him.


Bad: I thought to repair this machine by himself impossible for him.
Good: I thought it impossible for him to repair this machine by himself.

C 做宾语补足语和主语补足语:
I asked him  to help me repair the broken machine.
   宾语        宾语补足语

He was askedto help me repair the broken machine.
主语            主语补足语

He was expected to accept our offer.


注意:
1  使役动词make, let, have 和感官动词see, watch, feel, hear, notice后面的动词不定式作
   宾语补足语时不带to。但变成被动语态让动词不定式作主语补足语时要加to.

2  动词find, help后面接动词不定式时可以带to, 也可以省略to.

Right: I helped him repair the machine.
Right: I helped him to repair the machine.
