初中英语动词不定式精讲精练(精校版)
动词不定式
动词不定式是动词的一种非谓语形式，没有人称和数的变化，不能单独作句子的谓语。其构成形式为"to+动词原形" ，to 为动词不定式的符号，本身无意义。动词不定式具有两大特点：
1. 具有动词的特点，因此，后面可以跟表语、宾语或状语，构成动词不定式短语。
2. 具有名词、形容词或副词的特点，可以在句子中用作主语、宾语、宾语补足语、状语、定语、表语及同位语等
1. 作主语
动词不定式作主语时，句子的谓语动词常用单数，其位置有以下两种：
(1)把不定式置于句首。如：
To get there by bike will take us half an hour.
骑自行车到那儿将花费我们半个小时。
To make up for lost time is not possible.
要弥补失去的时光是不可能的。
To lean out of the window is dangerous.
身子探出窗外很危险。
To save money now seems impossible.
现在好像不可能存钱。
(2)用it 作形式主语，把真正的主语不定式置于句后，常用于下列句式中。如：
①It+be+名词+to do
It's our duty to take good care of the old.
这是照顾老人是我们的责任。
②It takes sb+some time+to do
How long did it take you to finish the work?
你花了多少时间来完成这项工作吗？
③It+be+形容词+for sb+to do
It is difficult for us to finish writing the composition in a quarter of an hour.
我们难以在四分之一小时内完成这篇作文。
It is stupid of you to write down everything (that) the teacher says.
It is an offence to drop litter in the street.
在马路上乱丢废物是违章的。
④It seems(appears)+形容词+to do
It seemed impossible to save money.
在句型③中，常用表示客观情况的形容词，如：difficult,easy,hard,important,impossible,necessary 等；在句型④中，常用careless,clever,good,foolish,honest,kind,lazy,nice,right,silly,stupid,wise 等 表示赞扬或批评的词。在不定式前的sb ，可看作其逻辑主语。这一句式有时相当于Sb is+形容词+to do句式 ，如：It's kind of you to help me with my English.=You are kind to help me with my English.
⑤It + 不定式结构可位于believe/consider/discover/expect/find/think和wonder 之后
He thought it would be safer to go by train.
他认为乘火车比较安全。
He will find it is hard to make friends.
他会感觉到交朋友困难。
⑥不定式的完成式也可作句子的主语
To have made the same mistake twice was unforgivable.
两次犯同样的错误是不可原谅的。
It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
爱过而后失去了爱，比从未爱过要好。
(3)举例
（1） It's easy (for me) to do that.我做这事太容易了
easy, difficult, hard, important, possible, impossible, comfortable, necessary, better;
the first, the next, the last, the best, too much, too little, not enough
It's so nice to hear your voice.
听到你的声音真高兴。
It's necessary for you to lock the car when you do not use it.
当你不用车的时候，锁车是有必要的。
（2） It's very kind of him to help us. 他帮助我们，他真好。
Kind, nice, stupid, rude, clever, foolish, thoughtful, thoughtless, brave, considerate(考虑周到的), silly, selfish(自私的)
例句:
It was silly of us to believe him. 我们真愚蠢，竟然相信了他。
It seemed selfish of him not to give them anything. 他不给他们任何东西，这显得太自私了。
注意：（1） 其他系动词如，look ，appear 等也可用于此句型
（2） 不定式作为句子成分时，动词用单数形式。
（3） 当不定式作主语的句子中又有一个不定式作表语时，不能用It is… to…的句型
(对)To see is to believe. 眼见为实。
(错)It is to believe to see.

注意：疑问词带不定式在句中作成分时，谓语动词用单数。
The question is how to put it into practice.

3) 当复合宾语中的宾语是不定式时，先用形式宾语it 代替不定式，把不定式置于补语之后，即：主语+动词+it+补语+to do句式。如：

5 Find 的特殊用法：
Find 后可用分词做宾补，或先加形式宾语，再加形容词，最后加带to 的动词不定式。find 后也可带一个从句。此类动词还有get ，have 。
I found him lying on the ground.
I found it important to learn.
I found that to learn English is important.
6典型例题：
The next morning she found the man ___ in bed，dead.
A. lying B. lie C. lay D. laying
答案：A.find 的宾语后面，用分词或分词短语，起宾语补足语作用。现在分词表达主动，也表达正在进行，过去分词表达被动。
2) to + be 的不定式结构，作补语的动词。
Acknowledge, believe, consider, think, declare(声称), discover, fancy(设想), feel, find, guess, judge, imagine, know, prove, see(理解), show, suppose, take(以为), understand

7典型例题:

A. to invent B. inventing C. to have invented D. having invented
答案：A. 由consider to do sth. 排除B 、D ，此句只说明发明这一个事实，不定式后用原形即可。而C 为现在完成时，发明为点动词一般不用完成时，且此处也不强调对现在的影响，因此不选C 。
3) to be +形容词
Seem, appear, be said, be supposed, be believed, be thought, be known, be reported, hope, wish, desire, want, plan, expect, mean…
The book is believed to be uninteresting.
人们认为这本书没什么意思。
4) there be+不定式

有些动词需用as 短语做补语，如regard,think believe,take,consider.
We regard Tom as our best teacher. 我们认为汤姆是我们最好的老师。
Mary took him as her father . 玛丽把他当作自己的父亲。
5) 秃头不定式作补语
秃头不定式， 即不带“to”的不定式，其语法功能一般在句子中作宾语的补语（宾语补足语）。
用秃头不定式作宾语补足语的常用动词如下：
口诀：“五看、三使役“，“两听、一感”要记住，若是“宾补”变“主补”，主补“to”字不能无。动词let 属例外，其宾补/主补“to”均无。说明：
五看-----see/watch/notice/observe/look at；三使役-----have/make/let；两听-----hear/listen to；一感-----feel 。 例句：I often see him go to school on foot.(秃头不定式作宾语补足语) He is often seen to go to school on foot.(不定式作主语补足语，要带“to”) Let him try again.---- He is let try again.(let的主补与宾补均用秃头不定式) 练习：1.

4. I was made ______ my homework in the afternoon.
A. do B. doing C. to do D. did (贵州省)
8作表语
不定式作表语表示具体动作或将来动作；动名词作表语表示抽象的一般行为。
①To be kind to the enemy is to be cruel to the people.
②My chief purpose is to point out the difficulties of the matter.
③What I would suggest is to put off the meeting.
当主语和表语都是不定式时，其含义一是条件，一是结果（例①）。当主语是aim,duty,hope,idea,mista ke,plan,purpose,suggestion 等为中心词的名词词组（例②）时，或以what 引导的名词性分句（例③），不定 式说明主语的内容。
④Our work is serving the people.
⑤What he likes is taking a walk after supper.
⑥The story told by Mr.Wang is interesting.
④⑤句动名词作表语，与主语部分可以转换，如Serving thepeople is our work,而⑥句中是现在分词作表语，说明主语的性质、状态，现在分词具有形容词的各种特征，另外，动名词作表语还应与进行时态区别开来。 9作状语
（1）目的状语
To… only to (仅仅为了), in order to, so as to, so(such)… as to… (如此……以便……)
He ran so fast as to catch the first bus. 他飞快地跑以便赶上第一班车。
I come here only to say good-bye to you. 我来仅仅是向你告别。
（2）作结果状语，表事先没有预料到的，要放在句子后面。

He searched the room only to find nothing.
（3) 表原因
I'm glad to see you.
典型例题

A. sit B. sit on C. be seat D. be sat on

。当动词与介词连用时，常位于“形容词+动词不定式”结构的末尾。

10作定语
⒈不定式作定语
不定式在句中作定语，置于被修饰的名词或代词之后。如：
①The next train to arrive is from Washington.
②Do you have anything to be taken to your sister?
③Do you have anything to say on the question?
④Would you please give me some paper to write on?
⑤My wish to visit France has come true at last.
不定式短语作定语和被修饰词之间表示以下关系：
(1)表示将来的动作（例①）。
(2)与被修饰词之间有动宾关系，如是不及物动词，则需加介词（例④）。
(3)与被修饰词之间有动宾关系，同时与句中其它词之间又有逻辑上的主谓关系时，尽管有被动含义，却仍用主动语态（例③）；如只有动宾关系，而无逻辑上的主谓关系，则需用被动语态（例②）。
(4)不定式作定语时，一般可转换为定语从句，例①to arrive=that will arrive。

区别联系
1 动名词与不定式的区别
动名词表达的是：状态，性质，心境，抽象，经常性，已发生的
不定式表达的是：目的，结果，原因，具体，一次性，将发生的
2 接不定式或动名词，意义相同
3在下列情况下，一般要用不定式：
①hate,like,love 前有would(should)时，如：I'd like to have a cup of coffee.
②当谓语动词begin,continue,start 等是进行式时，如：The students are starting to work on the difficult maths problem.
③begin,continue,start 与know,understand 等状态动词连用时，如：I soon began to understand what was happening. ⒋advise,allow,encourage,forbid,permit 等动词后接动名词作宾语，或带不定式作宾语补足语。如：
Our teachers don't permit our/us swimming in the lake.
Our teachers don't permit us to swim in the lake.
4 部分动词后接不定式或动名词时，意义差别较大，应根据句子语境选择使用。
①forget,remember,regret 后接不定式，表示现在或未来的动作，接动名词表示动作已经发生。如：
Don't forget to post the letter for me.
Have you forgotten meeting her in Beijing Airport?
Remember to close the windows before you leave.
I remember writing him a letter a year ago.
We regret to tell you that all of you are not invited toattend the meeting.
