典型例題
She reached the top of the hill and stopped ___ on a big rock by the side of the path.
A. to have rested B. resting C. to rest D. rest
答案：C。由題意可知，她到了山頂，停下來在一個路邊的大石頭上休息。因此，應(yīng)選擇"stop to do sth. 停下來去做另一件事"。而不僅僅是爬山動作的終止，所以stop doing sth.不正確。 stop doing/to do forget doing/to do forget to do 忘記要去做某事�！�(未做) forget doing 忘記做過某事�！ �(已做) The light in the office is stil on. He forgot to turn it off. 辦公室的燈還在亮著，它忘記關(guān)了。(沒有做關(guān)燈的動作) He forgot turning the light off. 他忘記他已經(jīng)關(guān)了燈了。( 已做過關(guān)燈的動作) Don't forget to come tomorrow. 別忘了明天來。(to come動作未做)
典型例題 ---- The light in the office is still on. ---- Oh, I forgot___.
A. turning it off B. turn it off C. to turn it off D. having turned it off
答案：C。由the light is still on 可知燈亮著，即關(guān)燈的動作沒有發(fā)生，因此用forget to do sth. 而forget doing sth表示燈已經(jīng)關(guān)上了，而自己忘記了這一事實(shí)。此處不符合題意�！ ry doing/to do try to do 努力，企圖做某事�！ ry doing 試驗(yàn)，試著做某事。 You must try to be more careful. 你可要多加小心。 I tried gardening but didn't succeed. 我試著種果木花卉，但未成功。 go on doing/to do go on to do 做了一件事后，接著做另一件事�！ o on doing 繼續(xù)做原來做的事�！ fter he had finished his maths，he went on to do his physics. 做完數(shù)學(xué)后，他接著去做物理�！ o on doing the other exercise after you have finished this one. 作完這個練習(xí)后，接著做其他的練習(xí) be afraid doing/to do be afraid to do 不敢，膽怯去做某事，是主觀上的原因不去做，意為"怕"; be afraid of doing 擔(dān)心出現(xiàn)doing的狀況、結(jié)果。 doing 是客觀上造成的，意為"生怕，恐怕"�！ �
