动名词

特 征

动名词也是动词的一种非限定形式，由动词原形加“-ing”构成，与现在分词同形。

动名词兼有动词和名词的特征和作用，其动词特征表现为可以带宾语、状语或表语。

The manager impressed on his office staff the importance of keeping accurate

records．(带宾语)

Working in these conditions is not a pleasure but a suffer．(带状语)

Censure is the tax a man pays to the public for being eminent．责难是一个人因

为出名而向公众交的税。(带表语)

此外，动名词的动词特征还表现在它的语态和时态变化上。例如：

There is more pleasure in loving than in being loved． (一般被动式)

I know nothing about his having served in the army． (完成式)

成 分

(一) 作主语

1) 动名词作主语往往表示一种概念、习惯或经验

Talking mends no holes． Promising is the eve of giving．

Talking to him is talking to a wall．

2)有时先用it作形式主语。把-ing形式置于句尾 it is no use/good/useless/ a

waste of…/fun/pleasure doing sth

it is no use complaining It's nice seeing you again． lt is fun playing with

children．

3) “There is+ no 后可以用动名词作主语, 表示“没法……”

There was no telling when this might happen again．

There is no hiding of evil but to do it ．

比较：There is no sense/point/use (in) doing sth

(二) 作表语 动名词作表语也表示一种概念、习惯或经验。

Seeing is believing．眼见为实。 My job is teaching senior students English.
