不定詞與動名詞

Infinitives and Gerunds

高頻

不定詞(to + V)和動名詞(V-ing)都可以當作名詞使用,但有些動詞只能接不定詞,有些只能接動名詞,有些兩者都可以但意義不同。這是學測文法題的必考重點。

文法規則說明

1

【Verbs Followed Only by Infinitives】只能接不定詞(to V)的動詞,通常表示未來的意圖、希望、決定或計畫。常見的有:want、hope、wish、expect、decide、plan、agree、refuse、promise、pretend、learn、manage、afford、offer、choose、tend、intend、mean(打算)等。 公式:V + to V

2

【Verbs Followed Only by Gerunds】只能接動名詞(V-ing)的動詞,通常表示已經發生的、正在進行的或一般性的動作。常見的有:enjoy、finish、avoid、mind、suggest、consider、practice、keep、quit、give up、deny、admit、delay、postpone、imagine、risk、resist、miss、appreciate 等。口訣:MEGA FAPS(Mind、Enjoy、Give up、Avoid、Finish、Admit、Practice、Suggest)。 公式:V + V-ing

3

【Verbs with Different Meanings (to V vs. V-ing)】有些動詞可以接不定詞或動名詞,但意義不同。remember/forget + to V(記得/忘記要去做)vs. + V-ing(記得/忘記曾經做過);stop + to V(停下來去做另一件事)vs. + V-ing(停止正在做的事);try + to V(試圖、努力去做)vs. + V-ing(嘗試做做看);regret + to V(遺憾地要...)vs. + V-ing(後悔做了...)。 公式:remember/forget/stop/try/regret + to V ≠ + V-ing

4

【Infinitive / Gerund as Subject】不定詞和動名詞都可以當句子的主詞。動名詞當主詞較常見於一般陳述;不定詞當主詞較正式,通常會用虛主詞 it 代替。當主詞時,動詞用單數。 公式:V-ing / To V + 單數 V

5

【Preposition + Gerund】介系詞後面只能接動名詞(V-ing),不能接不定詞。常見的片語:be interested in、be good at、look forward to、be used to、be devoted to、in addition to、instead of、without、before、after 等。注意 look forward to 和 be used to 中的 to 是介系詞,不是不定詞的 to。 公式:介系詞 + V-ing

常見錯誤

!

I enjoy to play basketball on weekends. (✗) → I enjoy playing basketball on weekends. (✓) enjoy 只能接動名詞(V-ing),不能接不定詞(to V)。enjoy playing / enjoy reading / enjoy watching 等。

!

I look forward to see you next week. (✗) → I look forward to seeing you next week. (✓) look forward to 中的 to 是介系詞,不是不定詞的 to,所以後面要接動名詞 seeing。這是學測最常出的陷阱題。

!

She stopped to talk and listened to the teacher. (✗) → She stopped talking and listened to the teacher. (✓) stop to V 表示「停下來去做某事」;stop V-ing 表示「停止正在做的事」。此句意思是她停止說話,所以用 stopped talking。

學測應試技巧

💡

學測最常考的是:只接動名詞的動詞(enjoy、avoid、finish、mind、suggest 等),背熟這些動詞非常重要。

💡

remember/forget/stop + to V vs. V-ing 的意義差異是經典考題,幾乎年年出現。to V 指尚未發生的事,V-ing 指已發生的事。

💡

look forward to、be used to、be devoted to、object to 等片語中的 to 是介系詞,後面接 V-ing。這是最常見的陷阱題。

💡

遇到不確定的動詞時,想想動作的時間:已發生的傾向用動名詞,尚未發生的傾向用不定詞。
