動名詞
定義: 它是一種兼有動詞和名詞特征的非謂語動詞形式。

1) It is no use/ good / useless + doing…
2) It is a waste of time + doing …
3) It is fun + doing …
在以上結構中常用動名詞作主語。
e.g. It’s no use crying over spilt milk. (覆水難收）
There is no joking about the matter.

2. Do you feel like _______ (have) a break?

e.g. I remember seeing her at the hotel.
我記得在賓館見過她。(動作發生了)
I will remember to see her at the hotel.
我記著要去賓館見她。(動作尚未發生)
remember/forget/ regret to do 動作尚未發生
doing動作已經發生
try to do 設法、努力去做，盡力
doing 試試去做（看有何結果）
mean to do 打算做（主語一般是人）
doing意味著（主語一般是物）
regret to do 對將要做的事抱歉
doing 對已經發生的事感到后悔
stop to do停下去做另外一件事
doing停止做手頭的事情
3. 作表語 動名詞作表語時句子主語常是表示無生命的事物的名詞或what引導的名詞性從句。表語動名詞與主語通常是對等的關系，表示主語的內容，主語、表語可互換位置。
e.g. Your task is cleaning the windows. 你的任務就是擦窗戶。 (Cleaning the windows is your task.) What I hate most is being laughed at. 我最痛恨的就是被別人嘲笑。 (Being laughed at is what I hate most.)

動名詞
定義:?它是一種兼有動詞和名詞特征的非謂語動詞形式。
基本形式: V-ing
作用:?動名詞具有名詞的性質，在句中可以做主語、表語、賓語、定語等。
動名詞的基本用法
1.?用作主語
所表動作比較抽象，或者泛指習慣性的動作。
e.g.Playingwithfire is dangerous.
注意：動名詞做主語，有時先用it作形式主語，把動名詞置于句末。這種用法在習慣句型中常用。
1) It is nouse/good/ useless + doing…
2) It is awasteoftime + doing?…
3) It is fun +doing…
在以上結構中常用動名詞作主語。
e.g. It’s no use crying over spilt milk. (覆水難收）
There isnojokingabout the matter.
It isfunplayingwith children.?和孩子們一起玩真好。
2.?用作賓語
1)?作動詞的賓語
常見的此類動詞有：practise, enjoy,finish, give up,cannothelp, keep, keep on, mind, miss, put off, depend on,think about, succeedin,worry about, be used to, get used to, look forward to,pay attention to等。
e.g. Howdoyoupractice speaking?
I havetofinishreading a book and give a report.
2)?作介詞的賓語

2. Shall wehavearest or get down to doing our work?

e.g.Irememberseeing her at the hotel.
我記得在賓館見過她。(動作發生了)

我記著要去賓館見她。(動作尚未發生)
?remember/forget/regrettodo??動作尚未發生

meantodo??打算做（主語一般是人）
doing意味著（主語一般是物）
regrettodo??對將要做的事抱歉
doing?對已經發生的事感到后悔
stopto do停下去做另外一件事

3.?作表語
動名詞作表語時句子主語常是表示無生命的事物的名詞或what引導的名詞性從句。表語動名詞與主語通常是對等的關系，表示主語的內容，主語、表語可互換位置。
e.g. Yourtaskiscleaning the windows.
你的任務就是擦窗戶。
(Cleaningthewindowsis your task.)
What I hatemostisbeing laughed at.?我最痛恨的就是被別人嘲笑。

4. I discovered that listening to something interesting is the secret to language learning.
discover v. 發現; 發覺
指偶然或經過努力發現原來客觀存在但不為人所知的事物。
e.g. Columbus discovered America in 1492. 哥倫布于1492年發現了美洲。
5. I also learned useful sentences like “It’s
a piece of cake” or “It serves you right.”
a piece of cake和serves sb. right是英語中的兩個習慣用語, 也可稱作習語idiom(s)。同漢語中的成語類似, 習語是人們在長期的語言運用中約定俗成的一種固定表達方式, 其意思往往不是字面所表達的含義。
如: a piece of cake表示事情非常簡單、易于解決, 相當于漢語的“小菜一碟; 小事一樁”; serves sb. right則相當于漢語說某人“活該”。
6. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked them up in a dictionary.
look up (在詞典、參考書中或通過電腦)查閱; 抬頭看
【look用法歸納】
look after 照顧
look like 看起來像 look out 當心, 小心
look through 瀏覽 look for 尋找
look forward to 期待 look around 向四周看
have/take a look 看一看 look over 檢查

動名詞
定義: 它是一種兼有動詞和名詞特征的非謂語動詞形式。
基本形式: V-ing
作用: 動名詞具有名詞的性質，在句中可以做主語、表語、賓語、定語等。
動名詞的基本用法
1. 用作主語
所表動作比較抽象，或者泛指習慣性的動作。
e.g. Playing with fire is dangerous.
注意：動名詞做主語，有時先用it作形式主語，把動名詞置于句末。這種用法在習慣句型中常用。
1) It is no use/ good / useless + doing…
2) It is a waste of time + doing …
3) It is fun + doing …
在以上結構中常用動名詞作主語。
e.g. It’s no use crying over spilt milk. (覆水難收）
There is no joking about the matter.
It is fun playing with children. 和孩子們一起玩真好。
2. 用作賓語
1) 作動詞的賓語
常見的此類動詞有：practise, enjoy, finish, give up, cannot help, keep, keep on, mind, miss, put off, depend on, think about, succeed in, worry about, be used to, get used to, look forward to, pay attention to等。
e.g. How do you practice speaking?
I have to finish reading a book and give a report.
2) 作介詞的賓語
1. I learn English by doing grammar exercises.
2. Shall we have a rest or get down to doing our work?

e.g. I remember seeing her at the hotel.
我記得在賓館見過她。(動作發生了)
I will remember to see her at the hotel.
我記著要去賓館見她。(動作尚未發生)
remember/forget/ regret to do 動作尚未發生
doing動作已經發生
try to do 設法、努力去做，盡力
doing 試試去做（看有何結果）
mean to do 打算做（主語一般是人）
doing意味著（主語一般是物）
regret to do 對將要做的事抱歉
doing 對已經發生的事感到后悔
stop to do停下去做另外一件事
doing停止做手頭的事情
3. 作表語
動名詞作表語時句子主語常是表示無生命的事物的名詞或what引導的名詞性從句。表語動名詞與主語通常是對等的關系，表示主語的內容，主語、表語可互換位置。
e.g. Your task is cleaning the windows.
你的任務就是擦窗戶。
(Cleaning the windows is your task.)
What I hate most is being laughed at. 我最痛恨的就是被別人嘲笑。

I can’t tell whether or not the teacher likes me. 此句也可以寫成: I can’t tell whether the teacher likes me or not.

提問”的意思。例如：
I just accepted what he told me. I never thought to question it.
當question用作動詞，表示對某人或事物進行提問時，是一種十分正式的用法，有“提問；詢問；審問”的意思。例如：
The police questioned him for three hours before letting him go.
