1、一、动词不定式是一个仅仅含有动词原形和附加成分(宾语、表语)以及连带成分(状语)的短语,转换为从句时主要围绕动词做文章。既然不定式变成谓语动词,以下几点必需要考虑:1. 在原句中找出不定式的逻辑主语,使其成为转换成句子后的主语;2. 确定不定式所表达的时态或情态,把转换后的谓语动词变成相应的时态(将来、一般、完成或进行),有时候还有必要另加情态动词 can/could, may/might;3. 确定原不定式在句子中所充当的成分(主语、宾语、表语、定语或状语),然后加上必要的关连词改为相应的从句。二、与转换有关的不定式的相关知识A. 不定式的逻辑主语有下列几种情况1. 句子的主语就是不定式的逻
2、辑主语,如:He helped to build a reservoir. You mustcome to see me on Sunday.What have I done to make you so angry?2. 不定式的逻辑主语是相邻的名词Its kind of you to see me.We know her to be a brave girl.Did you see him enter the room?It is for you to decide.3. 不定式的逻辑主语存在于不言自明的语境中 To talk with him is a great pleasure. (
3、可能是 we, you 或 everybody) Our plan is to finish the work in two weeks. (we)It is wrong not to help others. (we, they 或 you)B. 不定式的时态1. 不定式的一般式的行为常表示下列两种时间:* 如果作宾补,与谓语动词同时发生,如:I saw him go out.Would you help me to put things in order?* 其他情况多数发生在谓语动词后,如:I hope to see you again.He wanted to be an actor.
4、2. 不定式的完成式的行为发生在谓语动词之前,如:I am sorry to have kept you waiting.3. 不定式的进行式的行为发与谓语动词同时发生,如:He seems to be recovering.C. 不定式的词性以及在句子中充当的成分1. 名词性主语: It is our duty to help you.宾语: She decided to try again. 表语: Her job is to take care of the children.2. 形容词性定语:He is always the first one to get up.3. 副词性目的状
5、语:He came here to see me yesterday.结果状语:He is too excited to go to sleep. 形容词补足语:I am sorry to hear that.三、转换实例1. 不定式 名词从句to talk with him is a great pleasure.

(结果)- His behaviour was such (that we all refused) to receive him in our homes. Im very sorry to have kept yo
9、u waiting. (原因)- Im very sorry (because/as/for I) have kept you waiting.四、不定式的转换有时候不能死板硬套上面的格式,有些特殊情况还需要特殊对待。如:For a moment (I seemed to) have lost consciousness.- (It seemed that I) had lost consciousness.(They happened to) meet each other in the street.- (It so happened that) they met each other i
