动名词的用法

1、动名词的用法及练习你听过英文语法有动词(verb)、名词(noun)；但你听过有动名词(gerund)吗？1. The girl is singing a song.2. The girl singing now is my sister.3. Singing is one of her hobbies(爱好).一、名词性的动名词(Nominal Gerund)Nominal Gerund 可以加上定冠词(Definite article，如 the)或不定冠词(Indefinite article，如 a, an)，其他可加在动名词前的还有如：my, this, some, any, all

2、, no 等等。举例如下：1. The mellow(愉快地) singing of the birds announces the coming of spring.(singing前加定冠词 the及形容词mellow；coming 前加 the)2. We knew the robber was near when we heard a faint rustling(沙沙声) in the bushes.(rustling 前加不定冠词a及形容词 faint) 从上面的例子可看出如何将一个动词转成名词；但它和真正的名词还是有区别的，那就是没有单数或复数之分。不过，有一些动名词是可以变成真

3、正名词的喔，如：saying, writing, opening, painting, cutting, heading, feeling, being,saving, surrounding, crossing, misunderstanding 等等。它们都可以有复数的喔，方法就是在它们的后面加个s，如：paintings。二、动词性的动名词(Verbal Gerund) 看看下面的句子：Carelessly writing essays annoys the teacher. 上面的句子里的writing是动名词，但前面有副词carelessly（粗心地），后面又有受词(Object)

4、essays。因此writing就有动词的特征。注意：Verbal Gerund 这类动名词的前面可不能加上任何冠词(the, a, an .)喔。动名词的功能与用法一、在句子中用作主语(Subject)或主语的补语(Subject Complement):1.1 作主语1. Listening to music gives me pleasure. (主语Listening ）2. Running is good exercise. （主语running)3. Walking to school is a good idea. (主语walking)1.2 作主语的补语 1. My cat&

5、#39;s favorite activity is sleeping. (补语sleeping) 2. Seeing is believing. (主语seeing, 补语believing)1.3 主语置于句尾 1.3.1 用 It + be + . +v-ing 句型 1. It is fun speaking English. 2. It is of great importance fighting against pollution(污染).1.3.2 用 It is 后接 no use. no good, fun 等的句型1. It is no use learning theo

6、ry without practice.2. It is no fun being lost in rain.1.3.3 用 It is 后接 useless, nice, good, interesting, worthwhile 等的句型1. It is worthwhile taking this into consideration.1.3.4 用 There + be + no + v-ing 的句型1. There is no joking about such matters.2. There is no getting along with him. (简直无法与他相处)二、动

7、名词也可以作宾语（Object)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

8、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

9、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 hatepermit bother intend cease like recommend continue lovestart stop forget

10、 regret propose try continue rememberneed 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，hihi2.2 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c

11、alling)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

12、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 todelight to habit of opportunity for /ofexcuse for experience in love inreason for

13、 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 trou

14、ble 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 f

15、ear 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 old.)作逻辑主语时：1. In spite of the three telling the same story, I could not believeit.3.3.3 结

16、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?四、动名词的语态 4.1 被动式(being + v-ed)当动名词的逻辑主语所表示的是动作的对象时，动名词要用被动语态。1. He dislikes being interrupted(被打岔) in his speech.2. They couldn't stand being treated(被对待) like that.4.2 完成式 (having + v-e

17、d)动名词的动作发生在谓语动词之前，要用完成式。1. We regret having been unable to inform you of the meeting.2. The students' having done(完成) the work so well made us very happy.4.3 完成式的被动语态 (having been + v-ed)1. I heard of his having been chosen(被选为) to be the coach of the team.2. Some of our customers complained of

18、having been treated(被对待)rudely.4.4 在动词 need, want, require, deserve 之后的动名词（作为宾语），要用主动语态来表示被动的意思。1. The flowers in the garden want watering(需要浇水）.2. That's one of those questions that really don't need answering(不需回答).五、作定语 （Attribute）动名词放在所修饰的名词前面作为定语，表示该名词的用途或有关的动作。1. sleeping car 卧车 2. wal

19、king stick 手杖3. printing shop 印务馆 4. reading room 阅读室5. swimming pool 泳池 6. washing machine 洗衣机 7. dining room 饭厅六、在英文正式语体里，动名词可放在前置词(Preposition)后，以替代副词/状语的子句(Adverbial Clauses) 例：1. In case customers encounter difficulties, they should ring the following number:.2. In case of encountering difficul

20、ties, customers should ring the following number:.第二个句子的"In case of "动名词短句(Gerund Phrase) 取代第一个句子的 "Incase" 副词子句。下列都是这类例子：1. In spite of doing his best, the pupil was reproached. (In spite of )2. Despite coming in time, the visitors were not admitted. (despite)3. For all his argu

21、ing, the teacher could not convince us. (for all)4. The fireman distinguished himself by doing his duty to the utmost. (by)5. In sending us the book you proved to be reliable. (In)6.
