1:能带-ing 分词而不能带不定式的动词
英语中有一些动词能带-ing分词结构而不能带不定式结构作宾语。这类动词常见的有:
admit acknowledge anticipate advocate
appreciate avoid can't help can't resist
can't stand consider contemplate defer
delay deny detest dislike
don't mind ensure enjoy escape
excuse evade facilitate fancy
favour finish give up imagine
include keep(on) mind miss
pardon postpone practise put off
resent report risk stop
suggest
eg:
He acknowledged being ignorant of the facts.
I can't resist bargaining.
Carlos just missed being caught.
Please pardon my disturbing you .
We appreciate your inviting us to your party .
以上 acknowledge , admit , advocate, anticipate , appreciate , deny , fancy, imagine ,suggest , report 以及 mean (entail),mention , propose , recall, recollect , understand等动词,既能直接带-ing分词结构也能直接带that-分句。
eg:
She acknowledged being at fault.——She acknowledged that she had been at fault .
The watchman reported finding the door open .——The watchman reported that he had found the door open .
2:动词 宾语 介词 -ing分词
有一些动词不能直接带-ing分词,而必须在动词之后加宾语再加介词,这才能带-ing分词。
常见的介词是into 和from .例如“动词 宾语 into -ing分词”
He tricked her into marrying him by pretending that he was rich .
Don't let his friendly words mislead you into trusting him.
I shamed him into returning the stolen money.
Her sudden question surprised him into betraying himself .
Bob talked us into walking home with him.
能用于这类结构的动词还有 :
beguile, blackmail , cajole, coerce , deceive , fool等。例如“动词 宾语 from -ing分词”
Nothing would stop me from achieving my ambition.
There was nothing to prevent her from doing so .
What kept you from joining me ?
Don't let me hinder you from going .
He could hardly restrain himself from shouting aloud .
这类结构中的动词的基本含义是“使......不”。有时介词 from 也可省略不用
eg:
We must prevent the trouble (from ) spreading .
The rain prevented me (from )coming .
以上就是主动态而言。如果是被动态,则介词不可省略。
eg:
It can't be stopped from happening here .
不能说: It can't be stopped happening here .
