不带to不定式

带to不定式

章振邦语法英语句子汉译:动词不定式的形式和用法


如前所述,英语动词有三个非限定形式,即不定式 (infinitive) -ing 分词 (-ing participle) -ed分词 (-ed participle)。非限定动词某些用法问题包括非限定分句 (non-finite clause) 
不定式的结构形式
不定式通常由不定式符号 to+ 动词原形构成,因此,不带 lo 的不定式便与动词原形同形。

1) 不定式的一般形式、进行体和完成体形式
不定式不带”时" (tense) 的标记,也不受主语“入称" (peron) 和“数" (number) 的制约,但有“体" (aspect)"态" (voice) 的形态变化不定式可以是一般形式 (to write), 进行体形式 (to be writing), 完成体形式 (to have written) 以及完成进行体形式 (to have been writing)。 
I have a lot of work to do. 我有好多工作要做。
She had no need to be worrying. 她没有必要担心。
He is said to have left Shanghai. 他呀,听说已经离开了上海。
The president was reported to have been flying across the Atlantic.  总统呀,据报道,一直在飞越大西洋。

不定式的否定形式通常是在不定式符号之前加 not, never 等否定词。
We decided not to buy that house. 我们决定不买那所房子。
She wished never to see him again. 她希望再也见不到他。
She was told not to be worrying any more. 她呀,已被告知不要担心过多。
I understand him not to have left here. 我知道他还没有离开这里。

不定式的被动态是由 to be+ -ed 分词或 to have been + -ed 分词构成。
The matter to be discussed at the meeting is a hard nut to crack. 那个问题会讨论,会上会,真像是个硬核,难破呀。
They were all waiting for the gate to be opened. 他们都在等着大门打开。
He is sure to have been taught by a good musician. 他呀,可以肯定,所接受的教育当中,有过优秀的乐师。
I am sorry for the article not to have been finished in time.很抱歉这篇文章没有及时完成。

2) to 不定式与不带 to不定式
不定式分为带 to 不定式 (to-infinitive) 和不带 to 不定式 (bare infinitive) 不定式通常带 to, 但在某些搭配中不带 to, 在另一些搭配中既可带 to 也可不带 to 

a) 和情态助动词
在情态助动词之后用不带 to 不定式。
You must do as you  are told. 你必须记得做事要听吩咐。

边际情态助动词 (marginal modal auxiliary) 有所不同 例如 need 作情态助动词后跟不带 to 不定式,作主动词后跟带 to 不定式。
We needn't stay this evening. (作情态助动词)
         我们不必留下来的是今晚。
We don't need to stay this evening. (作主动词)
           我们不必留下来的是今晚。
Need we stay this evening? (作情态助动词)
        我们有必要留下来的是今晚吗?
Do we need to stay this evening? (作主动词)
         我们有必要留下来的是今晚吗?

又例如 dare 作情态助动词后跟不带 to 不定式,作主动词其后不定式通常带 to, 也可不带 to。
