Making a difference(Reference for Teaching)

沒讓你事先知道。很抱歉。
注意:上述動詞(let除外)用于被動語態時。不定式必須帶to。
e.g.though he had often made his little sister cry,today he was made to cry by his sister.
雖然他常惹小妹哭,今天卻被小妹給弄哭了。
(2)在下列結構后接不帶to的不定式: had better,would rather,would rather… than,cannot but。can't help but等。
e.g.you'd better tell her the truth.
你最好告訴她實情.
i cannot but agree.
我不得不同意。

(3)在“why…”或why not…”表示建議的句型中。
e.g.why not have a try again?
為什么不再試一次呢?
why spend so much money?
為什么花這么多錢呢?
(4)在介詞but,except之后。如果其前有實義動詞do的某種形式,不定式一般不帶 to。反之須帶to。
e.g. then it has no choice but to lie down and sleep.
它別無選擇,只能躺下睡覺。
the little boy did nothing but cry.
這小男孩只是哭。
there is nothing to do except wait till it stops raining.
沒辦法。只好等雨停了。
(5)不定式作表語時,如果解釋do的具體內容時,to可以省去。
e.g.the first thing she did was g0 up to her trainer and thank for all her help during the training.
她做的第一件事就是走到教練跟前,感謝她在訓練期間給予的幫助。
(6)動詞help或help+賓語之后,可用帶to的不定式,也可用不帶to的不定式,但在help+賓語+不定式結構中,如果用不帶 to的不定式.表示主語參與了不定式所表示的動作‘如果用帶to的不定式,表示主語沒有參與不定式所表示的動作。
e.g. will you help me(to)repair this bike?
請你幫我修修這輛車子好嗎?
