帶ing的動詞或帶to+不定式的動詞 2
When one verb is followed by another, the second verb can either be an infinitive or an –ing form. Some verbs can be followed by either an infinitive, or an –ing form but with a change in meaning. These are some of the most common ones.
當一個動詞跟着另一個動詞，第二個動詞可以是不定式，也可以是ing形式的。有些動詞跟着不同的動詞形式，其意義也隨之改變，這裏有幾個最常見的動詞。
like
喜歡，覺得
• I like watching old films on TV.With an ‘ing’ form, ‘like’ means ‘enjoy’
跟着一個動詞ing形式，like代表enjoy，喜歡的意思。
• I like to wash up as soon as I finish eating.I might not enjoy washing up but I think it’s the right thing to do.
此句中，我也許不喜歡洗碗，但是我認爲這是應該做的事。
Remember that ‘would like’ can only be followed by an infinitive.
記住，would like只能跟動詞不定式。
• I’d like to go to Japan next year, if possible.try
努力，嘗試
• I’m trying to learn Japanese but it’s very difficult.Try + to + infinitive means that something is difficult and you make an attempt to do it.
Try+to+不定式表示要完成某事很困難，你需要努力去做
• Have you tried using butter instead of oil?Try + ‘ing’ means make an experiment. It’s not difficult – it might work, it might not.
Try+ing形式表示一種試驗，它也許不難—有可能成功，也可能失敗。
stop
停止
Stop + ‘ing’ tells us what has stopped. In this example, buying a newspaper.
Stop+ing表示某事被停止，在這個例子裏，買報紙這事被終止了。
•I’ve stopped buying a newspaper every day to try to save money.Stop + to + infinitive tells us why something stopped. In this example the reason that the bus stopped was to pick up the children.
Stop+to+不定式表示爲什麼某事被停止，在這個例子了，公車停了是因爲要接小孩。
• The bus stopped to pick up the children.remember /forget
記住/忘記
• Don’t forget to post that letter for me.• Did you remember to post that letter for me?Remember/forget + to + infinitive means that you remember something you have to do – a duty or a chore.
