動名詞即具有動作特征的名詞。今天我們一起來學習與之相關的一些知識。 一)動名詞的種類：

1) 是名詞，例：Seeing is believing.

2) 具有動詞性特征可以帶賓語，例：Starving troops is necessary.

二)動名詞的形式：

一般形式：I don’t like you smoking.

完成形式：I regret not having taken your advice.

被動形式：This question is far from being settled.

三)動名詞常考的點：

1) 動名詞做主語時，謂語動詞為單數

2) 在動名詞和不定式中，作為介詞的賓語是動名詞

3) 動名詞的否定直接在其前加否定詞，通過代詞的賓格或所有格形式給出邏輯主語

例：

I would appreciate_______ back this afternoon.

A.you to call B.you call C.you calling D.you’re calling(Key：C;換成your calling也對)

4) 有些詞后只能接動名詞

admit; appreciate; avoid; celebrate; consider; contemplate; defer; delay; deny; detest; discontinue; dislike; dispute; enjoy; it entails; escape; excuse; explain; fancy; feel like; finish; forgive; can’t help; hinder; imagine; it involves; keep; it means; mention; mind; miss; it necessitates; pardon; postpone; practice; prevent; recall; report; resent; resist; risk; suggest; understand...

5) 另外還有一些接-ing形式的常用說法

it’s no good; it’s no/little/hardly any/ use; it’s not/hardly/scarcely use; it’s worthwhile; spend money/time; there’s no; there’s no point in; there’s nothing worse than; what’s the use/point...

6) 有些詞后面加不定式和動名詞均可

remember, forget, try, stop, go on, cease, mean后面均可用不定式和-ing形式，但意義截然不容。

例：

remember to do/doing：

①I remembered to post the letters.(指未來/過去未來將要做的動作)

②I remembered posting/having posted the letters.(我記得做過這個動作)

forget與remember的用法類似。

regret的用法：

①I regret to inform you that…(我很遺憾地通知你……)

②I regretted having left the firm after twenty years.(為了“二十年前的離開”而遺憾。)

try to(努力)與try +–ing(試驗)：

①You really must try to overcome your shyness.

②Try practicing five hours a day.
