Humm…. 對動名詞(Gerund)和不定詞(Infinitives)的用法搞不清楚…
是老師不用功還是你不用功…??!!
Ok, 我先整理幾個規則, 如果還不能解答你的問題, 我們再繼續努力…
Gerunds:
1. 可作主詞用,視為單數
Singing is a good way to relax.
2. 可作受詞,一些特定動詞之後必須接動名詞
I enjoy listening all kinds of music.
She avoids making same mistakes by practicing more.
3. 在介係詞之後
I’m just thinking about calling you.
You can make up your grades by retaking the test.
I’m used to taking bus to school. (這裡 “to” 是介係詞)
I’m looking forward to seeing you. (這裡 “to” 是介係詞)
4. 與go連用的特殊用法
Go + Ving → 表示去做某事(通常是戶外活動)
Go shopping, go fishing, go dancing, go hiking…
以下的幾個字後接動名詞:
admit discuss mind put off
appreciate dislike miss quit
avoid enjoy permit recommend
can’t help finish postpone risk
consider keep practice suggest
Infinitives
1. 特定動詞之後必須接不定詞

2. 特定形容詞之後接不定詞
I’m so happy to see you.
3. 表示 [意圖]

4. 許多 it 開頭的子句中,作【補充說明】的動詞會以不定詞的型態出現
It usually takes a long time to learn a foreign language well.
It’s so much fun to meet different people from work.
5. 許多有 for + n. 之後會用不定詞
