接不定词的动词

很多动词都可以接不定式的动词,本页上列出的所有动词,都会在接不定词时使用带 to 的不定词。而标上星号的动词也可以接 that 子句,如例句所示。而标上两个星号的动词,则是在主要动词的主词是「it」时,只能接 that 子句。

在 that 子句前没有名词的动词

当特定动词接的是 that 子句时,纵使不定词前有名词,that 子句前都不会有名词。这种情况用在 command、direct、entreat、implore、order、require、trust 等动词。

举例
  • I trust you to tell the truth.
  • I trust that you are telling the truth.
  • The general commanded his men to surrender.
  • The general commanded that his men surrender.
that 子句前有名词的动词

接在动词后的 that 子句需要在子句前加名词,就如不定词前一样。如 persuade 和 remind 会有这种情况。

举例
  • You can't persuade people to buy small cars.
  • You can't persuade people that small cars are better.
  • He reminded me to take my notebook to school.
  • He reminded me that I would need my notebook.
在 that 子句前有名词(也可不加)的动词

最后一组动词,在接 that 子句时可选择在子句前加名词。这种情况用在 instruct、teach、warn 等动词上。

举例
  • She taught her students to appreciate poetry.
  • She taught her students that poetry was valuable.
  • She taught that poetry was valuable.

接不定词或接名词+不定词的动词

  • Do you want me to go with you to the beach?
dare 的用法

在否定句和疑问句中,只要两个动词的主词相同,不定词有没有 to 都可行,不过省略 to 的用法比较普遍。如果两个动词的主词不同,就得加 to。

举例
  • I never dared tell him what happened.
  • Do you dare tell him?
  • Would you dare (to) jump out of a plane?
  • I dare you to tell him the truth.
