动名词的用法(2)
2.1 作动词/动词短语的宾语(置于动词或动词短语的后面)
1. I cannot help laughing. (我禁不住笑了起来)(宾语laughing)
2. You should avoid quarrelling with your sister. (宾语quarrelling)
3. You should practice speaking English more. (宾语speaking)
注意:上面三个句子中的动词:help, avoid, practice 只能用动名词作宾语。这类
动词还有:
dislike 厌恶 admit 接受 repent 后悔 acknowledge 承认
enjoy 享受 escape避免 deny 否认 postpone 延迟
resent 怨恨 mind 介意 miss 错过 risk 冒风险
finish 完成 avoid 避免 delay 耽误 consider 认为
fancy 想象 excuse 原谅 include 包括 imagine 想象
resist 抵制 suggest 建议 ……
还有短语类:
keep (on)继续 don't mind 不介意 cannot help 不禁 give up 放弃
put off 延迟 leave off 停止 burst out 闯出 ……
再请注意:有一些动词除了可接动名词外,也可接不定词(infinitive)。例子如下:
1. I prefer living in an apartment. (动词prefer接动名词 living)
2. I prefer to live in an apartment. (动词prefer接不定词 to live)
像上面两个句子的意思没什么不同。如 prefer 这一类的动词还有:
allow deserve neglect attempt
fear omit begin hate
permit bother intend cease
like recommend continue love
start stop forget regret
propose try continue remember
need ……
其实如hate, love, like之类动词,接动名词和接不定词的句子,意思是会有些不
同的,这就留给大家去研究吧,hihi……
2.2 作介词(Preposition)的宾语(Object)
1. I'm sorry for giving you so much trouble. (介词for,宾语giving)
2. The book is worth reading. (介词worth, 宾语reading)
3. I reached him by calling his office. (介词by, 宾语calling)
4. The police arrested(逮捕)him for speeding. (介词for, 宾语speeding)
注意:在下列的句子结构中,介词 in 被省略掉:
1. She is busy (in) correcting her exercises.
2. He spent two hours (in) reading book.
3. There is no use (in) talking with him now.
4. Is it any good (in) taking cold water baths?
2.3 作"名词+介词"的宾语
请看下列的句子:
1. I have the pleasure of speaking to the famous author. (pleasure of + 宾
语speaking)
2. He takes a great interest in studying languages. (interest in + 宾语
studying)
这一类"名词+介词"的还有:
danger of fear of objection to
delight to habit of opportunity for /of
excuse for experience in love in
reason for ……
好了,好了,看到这里,你是不是需要一点风油呢?呵呵!Gerund还没谈完呢,再会
吧。

三、句子中动名词的逻辑主语(Implied Subject)
什么是动名词的逻辑主语呢?在句子中,除了原有的主语之外,属于动名词的"主语
",也就称为"逻辑主语",一般位于动名词的前面。
3.1 在动名词前加"物主代词(如:my, his...)"或"名词所有格(如:Mary's,
Dog's...)"
1. His coming here helped us a lot. (主语/逻辑主语his, 动名词coming)
2. Tom's escaping from the prison made trouble for the jailer.(主语/逻辑主
语Tom,动名词escaping)
3.2 作宾语(Object)的动名词有自己的逻辑主语时,在动名词前加"物主代词"或"名
词所有格"
1. Do you mind my smoking in the romm? (逻辑主语my, 动名词smoking)
2. He insisted on Mary's staying there. (逻辑主语Mary, 动名词staying)
注意:作为逻辑主语的名词/代词为无生命时,则用通格(of the):
1. I cannot say there is no fear of the news spreading among intimate
friends. (逻辑主语news)
3.3 在下列情况中,不能使用所有格:
3.3.1 代词为 all, both, each, few, several, some, this 等作为逻辑主语时:
1. I remember all of them saying it .
3.3.2 数词、名词化形容词(如 the three, the ol
d...)作逻辑主语时:1. In spite of the three telling the same story, I could not believe
it.
3.3.3 结构中的逻辑主语是名子或短语,或受从句或短语修饰时:
1. Is there any chance of the people in the back of the room talking
a little louder?
真是烦死人了!还好,"动名词"最难的一关要算是"逻辑主语"了。如果你闯过后,接下
来的就轻松得多了。哈哈……
