5.Doyouhaveanythingtodotonight?

6.Inhisthirdyear,heleftHarvardtoworkforacompanycalledMicrosoft.

答案：1.定語2,定語3.狀語4,狀語5,定語6.狀語

敢學(xué)過程

一、不定式作定語

1.不定式作定語，修飾名詞或代詞，不定式和它所修飾的名詞之間有邏輯上的動賓關(guān)系、

主謂關(guān)系、動狀關(guān)系或同位關(guān)系。不定式通常要放在這些被修飾的詞后。

Ihavealotofworktodo.

我有許多工作要做。（動賓關(guān)系）

Heisthefirstpersontothinkoftheidea.

他是第一個想到這個主意的人。（主謂關(guān)系）

Ihavenotimetogothere.

我沒有時間去那兒。（動狀關(guān)系）

Hehasgotachancetogoabroad.

他有一個出國的機會。（同位關(guān)系）

（1）不定式與其所修飾的詞構(gòu)成邏輯上的動賓關(guān)系，而該不定式為不及物動詞時，其后須加

上適當?shù)慕樵~。

Iamlookingforaroomtolivein.

我正在找一間屋子住。

（2）當作定語的不定式所修飾的名詞或代詞是不定式動作的承受者時，不定式既可以用主動

形式，也可用被動形式，但其含義有所不同。

Haveyouanythingtosend?

你有什么東西要寄嗎？（不定式tosend的動作執(zhí)行者是“你”）

Haveyouanythingtobesent?

你有什么要（我或別人）寄的東西嗎？（不定式tobesent的動作執(zhí)行者是“我”或“別人”）

2.不定式作定語的幾種情況：

(1)不定式作定語可以表示將來的動作。

Iborrowedsomebookstoreadduringmyholiday.

我借了一些我假期要讀的書。

(2)序數(shù)詞，形容詞最高級，thelast,theonly等詞后或被這些詞修飾的名詞/代詞后，且與中

心詞之間為邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系時，常用不定式作定語。

Heisalwaysthefirsttoarriveattheschoolandthelasttoleavetheschool.

他總是第一個到校，最后一個離校。

(3)被修飾詞是抽象名詞時，常用不定式作定語。常見的該類名詞有：plan,ability,chance,idea,

hope,wish,fact,excuse,promise,attempt,way等。

Andthebestwaytostrengthenwillpoweristomakeitintoahabit.

增強意志力最好的方法就是讓意志力成為一種習(xí)慣。

(2)單句寫作

①突然她想到了一個好主意，但是她找不到寫的紙。

SuddenlyagoodideaoccuiTedtoher,butshecouldn'tfindanypaper.

②她是第一個在奧運會上獲得金牌的女性。

ShewasthefirstwomanthegoldmedalintheOlympicGames.

【答案］：①towriteon②towin

二、不定式作狀語

1.結(jié)果狀語

不定式作結(jié)果狀語常表示出乎意料的結(jié)果。常用于下列結(jié)構(gòu)中：onlytodo;enoughtodo(足

夠做...);too...to...(太...而不能....);so/such...asto…(如此....以至于....)。

Hehumedtotherailwaystation,onlytofindthetrainhadleft.

他匆忙趕到火車站，結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)火車已經(jīng)開走了。

Hewassotiredastobeunabletowalk.

=Hewastootiredtowalk.

他累得走不動了.

【點津】現(xiàn)在分詞短語作結(jié)果狀語常常表示“自然而然、意料之中或順理成章”的結(jié)果。

Ithasn'trainedforamonth,makingthecropshardtogrow.

一個月沒下雨了導(dǎo)致莊稼很難生長。

2.目的狀語

不定式作目的狀語主要表示某一動作或狀態(tài)的目的。常用于下列結(jié)構(gòu)中：0nlyt0（僅僅為了）;

inorderto;so...asto;so（such）...asto...（如此...以便....）

Heransofastastocatchthefirstbus.

他飛快地跑以便趕上第一班車。

Icomehereonlytosaygood-byetoyou.

我來僅僅是向你告別。

【點津】1.不定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)作目的狀語，當不定式或不定式短語有自己的執(zhí)行者時，要

用不定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)即在不定式或不定式短語之前加for+名詞或賓格代詞作狀語。

Heopenedthedoorforthechildrentocomein.

他開門讓孩子們進來。

學(xué)習(xí)進階

目的狀語從句與不定式的轉(zhuǎn)換

英語中的目的狀語從句，還可以變?yōu)椴欢ㄊ交虿欢ㄊ蕉陶Z作狀語，從而使句子在結(jié)構(gòu)上得以

簡化。可分為兩種情況：

1當目的狀語從句中的主語與主句中的主語相同時，可以直接簡化為不定式或不定式短語

作狀語。

We'llstartearlyinorderthat/sothatwemayarriveintime.

fWe'llstartearlyinorderto/soastoarriveintime.

2當目的狀語從句中的主語與主句中的主語不相同時，要用動詞不定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)作狀語。

Icameearlyinorderthatyoumightreadmyreportbeforethemeeting.

fIcameearlyinorderforyoutoreadmyreportbeforethemeeting.

寫出你對太空探索的看法

本單元的寫作項目是議論文，議論文的寫作就是對某一方面的問題，通過列舉事實、講

道理的方法來表達自己的看法。一般來說，議論文由論點、論據(jù)、論證三部分組成，通常按

提出問題、分析問題、解決問題的邏輯順序來安排寫作。

基本框架

1.開頭(beginning)---交代或提出問題

2.主體(body)一介紹或從幾個方面來分析問題

3.結(jié)尾(ending)一寫出解決問題的方法或思路

主題詞匯
