例如:
He avoided giving me a definite answer. 他避免給我一個(gè)正確答案。
David suggested selling your dog and car to pay the debt. 戴維建議賣掉你的狗和車抵債。
(我們把這句話改為虛擬語(yǔ)氣:David suggested that you (should) sell your dog and car to pay the debt. )
I couldn’t risk missing that train. 我可不敢冒誤了那趟火車的險(xiǎn)。
下列動(dòng)詞既可用動(dòng)詞不定式又可用動(dòng)名詞做賓語(yǔ):
abhor憎惡,attempt 試圖,begin 開始,cannot bear 無法忍受,cannot stand無法忍受,cease停止,continue,繼續(xù),,decline 拒絕,deserve值得,disdain蔑視,dread害怕,endure忍耐,forget忘記,hate 痛恨,intend打算,learn學(xué),like 喜歡,loathe厭惡,love喜歡,mean意思是、意味著,need需要,neglect疏忽,omit省略,忽略,plan計(jì)劃,prefer更喜歡,propose建議,regret后悔,remember記得,require需要,scorn蔑視、瞧不起,start開始,try嘗試,努力,entail必須,involve涉及,necessitate使成為必要,等。以上多數(shù)動(dòng)詞用不定式或用動(dòng)名詞作賓語(yǔ)意思一樣,個(gè)別不同。
(三)動(dòng)名詞短語(yǔ)作介詞賓語(yǔ)的時(shí)候最多。尤其是在短語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞后面。如:
The children are fond of listening to pop music. 孩子們喜歡流行音樂。
Are you interested in going to the show? 你有興趣去看演出嗎?
Thomas insisted on doing it in his own way. 托馬斯堅(jiān)持按他自己的方法做這件事。
我們把這句話改為虛擬語(yǔ)氣:Thomas insisted that he (should) do it in his own way.
Excuse me for interrupting you. 請(qǐng)?jiān)徫掖驍_你,
Since returning from Xi’an, he has been busy. 從西安回來后,他一直很忙。
He warned me against swimming in this lake. 他警告我不要在這個(gè)湖里游泳。
改為不定式短語(yǔ):He warned me not to swim in this lake.
We came out without being seen. 我們出來沒被人看見。
Before finishing your homework, you’d better not go out. 做完作業(yè)之前,你最好別出去。
改為用before 作連詞:Before you finish your homework, you’d better not go out.
(四)動(dòng)名詞也可以有自己的邏輯主語(yǔ),就是在動(dòng)名詞短語(yǔ)前面加上物主代詞或名詞的所有格。帶邏輯主語(yǔ)的動(dòng)名詞短語(yǔ)可做主語(yǔ),賓語(yǔ),表語(yǔ)等。在非正式文體當(dāng)中,經(jīng)常把物主代詞簡(jiǎn)化為賓格人稱代詞,把名詞所有格簡(jiǎn)化為名詞。例如:
I insisted on his (him) going to the cinema with me. 我堅(jiān)持要他和我一起去看電影。
I can hardly imagine Peter(Peter’s) sailing across the Atlantic Ocean in five days. 我簡(jiǎn)直不能想象彼得會(huì)在五天內(nèi)橫渡大西洋。
Linda’s coming will do you good.(主語(yǔ)) 林達(dá)的到來對(duì)你有好處。
What made him angry was their (them) laughing.(表語(yǔ))使他生氣的是他們笑。
(五)動(dòng)名詞的完成式和被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài):
(1)完成式表示動(dòng)名詞的動(dòng)作發(fā)生在謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)作之前。例如:
I apologize for having broken my promise. 我沒有遵守諾言,我道歉。
I don’t remember having talked with him before. 我不記得以前曾和他談過話。
恨不相逢未嫁時(shí)。 → I regret not having met you before my marriage/before I got married.
(2)當(dāng)動(dòng)名詞的邏輯主語(yǔ)是動(dòng)名詞動(dòng)作的對(duì)象或承受者時(shí),動(dòng)名詞要用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。例如:
I could no longer stand being treated like that. 我再也不能忍受被那樣對(duì)待。
She was proud of having been trained in the U.K. 在英國(guó)受過訓(xùn),她感到自豪。
他不喜歡嘲笑別人。 →He doesn’t like laughing at others.
他不喜歡被人嘲笑!鶫e doesn’t like being laughed at.
