动名词是高考的一个考点,难点是和现在分词容易混淆。,虽说高考中出现的次数不多,但我们也不能掉以轻心。一般的动名词我们都了解,现在我们讲一下含有动名词的特殊句型。
动名词是英语动词的一种非谓语形式.有很多特殊句型和习惯用法.本文就其中一些常用句型作一介绍,以帮助同学们正确使用动名词。
1.worth 动名词= worthy of being done 做某事是值得的.
is this film worth seeing again?
这部电影值得再看一次吗?
whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well. 凡是值的做的,就值得好好去做.
注意: 这个句型中的动名词总是用主动形式表示被动意义. 类似的句型还有:worth while 动名词(也可用动词不定式)=worth the time spent in doing it
it isn’t worth while doing (or: to do )that .
做那件事不合算
2.cannot help 动名词=be unable to refrain from doing ---不禁;忍不住;不得不

注意: 类似的惯用句型还有: cannot stand /bear 动名词
i can’t stand waiting any longer.
再等下去我可受不了

3.feel like 动名词 =be inclined to do ----想要
do you feel like taking a walk with me?
跟我一起去散步怎么样?
he doesn’t take care of his eats what he feels like eating.
他不注意健康;想要吃什么就吃什么。
注意: 该句型多用于疑问句或否定句。like 在这时是介词,而不是动词。
4.how /what about 动名词=how do you like ---? 或 what do you think of ---?怎么样?常用来征求别人的意见。
what about playing a game of chess?
