英語中什么是非謂語動詞

　　非謂語動詞是指在句子中不是謂語的動詞，主要包括不定式、動名詞和分詞(現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞)，即動詞的非謂語形式。非謂語動詞除了不能獨立作謂語外，可以充當主語、賓語、狀語等。
典型習題

　　1.The Olympic Games, ______ in 776 B.C,did’t include women players until 1919.

　　A.first playing B.to be first played C.first played D.to be first playing

　　析：根據(jù)題干，必須選表示被動的選項，故排除A、D;因B選項表“將要被舉行”意，不合題干之用，只有C選項(相當于which was first played)才合用。

　　2.European football is played in 80 countries, ______ it the most popular sport in the world.

　　A.making B.makes C.made D.to make

　　析：B、C是謂語動詞，在此不可用。D項to make或表目的，或表“將要使得”，這都不合題干情景。只有A.making,可作狀語，表結(jié)果。再舉一現(xiàn)在分詞作結(jié)果狀語例：

　　The bus was held up by the snowstorm,causing the delay.公共汽車被大風雪所阻，因而耽誤了。

　　3.Little Jim should love ______ to the theater this evening.

　　A.to be taken B.to take C.being taken D.taking

　　析：根據(jù)this evening,應選表示將來義的選項，C、D應排除。Take后無賓語，必然要用被動式，故答案為A。

　　4.John was made ______ the truck for a week as a punishment.

　　A.to wash B.washing C.wash D.to be washing

　　析：根據(jù)be made to do sth.句式，可定答案為A。

　　5.The patient was warned ______ oily food after the operation.

　　A.to eat not B.eating not C.not to eat D.not eating

　　析：根據(jù)warn sb.(not)to do sth.句式，可排除B、D兩項;又根據(jù)非謂語動詞的否定式not總是在首位的規(guī)律，又可排除A，而定C。

　　6.——I usually go there by train. ——Why not ______ by boat for a change?

　　A.to try going B.trying to go C.to try and go D.try going

　　析：此題可根據(jù)why not后直接跟原形動詞規(guī)律而一舉確定正確答案為D。若將B項改為try to go，則要根據(jù)其與try going意義之別來確定答案。依據(jù)題干對話內(nèi)容，乙方是建議甲方嘗試乘船變變花樣，所以答案仍為D。

　　7.______ a reply,he decided to write again.

　　A.Not receiving B.Receiving not C.Not having received D.Having not received

　　析：非謂語動詞的否定式not應置于首位，B、D皆為錯誤形式。A項不能表達先于decided的動作，只有選C項才表沒收到信在先，決定再寫信在后，所以C為正確答案。

　　8.Charles Babbage is generally considered ______ the first computer.

　　A.to invent B.inventing C.to have invented D.having mvented

　　析：consider表“考慮”意時，其后動詞用doing形式，此處不表“考慮”，而表“認為”，這時consider后作賓語補足語或主語補足語多為to do,to have done,to be等形式。據(jù)此可排除B、D兩個選項。又因A表“要發(fā)明”意，不合題用，只有C表“發(fā)明了”意，才合題用，故選C。

　　9.Most of the artists ______ to the party were from South Africa.

　　A.invited B.to invite C.being invited D.had been invited

　　析：“被邀請參加晚會”，應選表被動意的選項，B不可用。D項少引導詞who，也應排除。又因短暫動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞被動式不可作定語，C也應排除，只有A.invited(=who were invited)才是正確答案。

　　10.The murderer was brought in,with his hands ______ behind his back.

　　A.being tied B.having tied C.to be tired D.tied

　　析：B表主動意，應排除。C表“將要被捆綁”，A表“正在被捆綁”都不合題意，只有D項填入空白才能表達“雙手被反綁著”這一意思，符合題干情景。再看一類似例句： He came in,(with)his head held high.他昂首走了進來。
