3.

To decide is to act. 另外一种情况，主语是以aim, ambition, duty, hope, idea, intention, mistake, plan, purpose, suggestion 等为中心的名词词组，或以what 引导的名词性分句，后面的不定式说明其内容。

4. My idea is to climb the mountain from the north. • What I would suggest is to start work at once. • 不定式结作主语补语时常带to，但在某些句型中可省略to，条件是主语部分必须具有一个动作动词do。 • All I did was empty the bottle. • The worst you can do is become very drowsy. • The only thing I can do now is go on by myself. • What I really wanted to do was drive all night.(也有人指出在由what引导的主语分句中，如果谓语词部分的do是完成体形式，后面的补语也可以用-ed，如果do是进行体形式，则补语必须用-ing 分词。) • What he’s done is :spoil the whole thing . to spoil the whole thing . spoilt the whole thing . • What he’s doing is spoiling the whole thing . • All she seems to do is gossip with her neighbors.

5. 不定式结构作动宾 ，能用带to不定式作宾语的有两种；一种是直接跟有带to不定式，另一种是跟有疑问词+带to不定式结构。 • 第一种常见的词有；afford, agree, aim, apply, arrange, ask, choose, claim, decide, decline, demand, desire, determine, expect, hope, learn, • long, manage, offer, pretend, promise, refuse, • seek, swear, threaten, want, wish ,etc. • He agreed to smoke no more cigarettes. • She applies to work only at weekends.

8. He deemed it his duty to help. • I count it a great honour to serve the people. • 不定式结构一般不可以作介宾。只有在含有否定意义的带有介词except的结构中才能这样用。如： • In informal English “may” is rarely used except to express possibility. • He will do anything for you except lend you money. • 当but用作except解释时，其后也可跟不定式结构. • They could do nothing but wait for the doctors to arrive. • 不定式结构作宾补 • 1） see, hear, feel, watch, notice, observe等表示感觉的动词。不定式结构都不带to • I heard her sing.

11. 4)love, hate, like, prefer, want等表示情感状态的动词。 • I’d love them to come tonight • I’d like (for) you to come down here.(AmE) • 5) arrange for, ask for, long for prepare for, provide for, vote for, wait for, call upon, count on, rely on depend on,etc。如： • I will arrange for you to come.We wait for that to be done.You can’t rely on him to assist you • You can always depend upon John to be there when he is needed

12. 动词+宾语+不定式的被动态转换形式 • 上面五种动词，除了第四种，其它都可转为被动态。担有几点要注意： • 1）第一种动词（除notice, watch不用于被动态外）转为被动态时，后面不带to不定式转为带to不定式。 • We saw the car stop. • The car was seen to stop. • 2)第二种动词（除了have）转为被动态，其后常用带to不定式. • They made us wait outside. • We were made to wait for two hours. • 只有let跟有单音节不定式时属于例外. • The prisoners were let go. • 但常用be allowed to代替. • They won’t let us go. • We won’t be allowed to go.

13. 3)第三种to be省略与否，与主动结构相同. • We consider him (to be )very capable. • He is considered( to be )very capable. • We know him to be a good worker. • He is known to be a good worker.保(know的现在完成体否定形式为主动态时，后面接不带to的不定式。转为被动态时接带to的不定式。如： • I have never known him behave like this. • He has never been known to behave like that before. • 4)第五类动词，有些有被动态，有些没有。有些被动态体现在不定式结构上。如： • He was seldom called upon to speak at these gatherings.

14. He can be relied on to help us.(必须带can或could，否则不能转为被动态） • We asked/arranged/longed/waited for that to be done.(但类似I will arrange for you to come.这样的句子就无被动态。) • 不定式结构作名词修饰语，不定式与所修饰的名词中心词，有时有主谓或宾关系。如： • This is the best book on the subject to appear(=that has appeared) this year. • He has a large family to support(=that he must support). • 在处于动宾关系时，如果不定式是不及物动词，其后得加上一个所需的介词。 • I write with a pen.

18. 3)表示原因 不定式表示原因，与表示目的的形式相似。区别为第一表示目的可在其前加，第二，不定式表示的动作后于谓语动词的动作。 • She wept to hear the news. • She wept to obtain symathy. • I pretended to be happy to know him. • I pretended to be happy to stop my mother from worrying. • 不定式的体有进行体，完成体和完成进行体等形式。 • He is believed to be coming. • (=It is believed that he is coming.)

19. He is believed to have come. • (= It is believed that he has come.) • He is believed to have been working hard. • (=It is believed that he has working been hard.) • 但，不定式本身不表示“时”的特征，得借助于谓语动词。如： • He seems to be enjoying himself.= • It seems (that) he is enjoying himself. • He seemed to be enjoying himself.= • It seemed ()he was enjoying himself. • I am sorry to have missed him.= • I am sorry that I have missed him/missed him.

21.
