典型不定式考题分析

 

1. All of them try to use the power of the workstation ________ information in a more effective way.

A. presenting             B. presented              C. being presented     D. to present

【解析】D。此题考查use sth to do sth结构,意为“用……做某事”,其中的不定式为宾语补足语。句意为:他们都试图用工作站的力量来更有效地展示信息。又如:People use a knife to cut things. 人们用刀切东西。The boy used the box to keep his toys in. 这男孩用这个箱子装他的玩具。

2. We are invited to a party ________ in our club next Friday.

A. to be held             B. held                     C. being held            D. holding

【解析】A。由于partyhold之间为被动关系,所以可以首先排除选项D;再根据句中的next Friday可知,hold所表示的动词尚未发生,所以要用不定式的被动式。又如:They were not very interested in the election to be held next month. 他们对下月举行的选举不太有兴趣。

3. The play________ next month aims mainly to reflect the local culture.

A. produced              B. being produced    C. to be produced      D. having been produced

【解析】C。根据句中的next month可知,动作尚未发生,故应填不定式的被动式。又如:Do you know anything about the conference to be held next week? 你对下星期召开的会议有什么了解吗?

4. With the world changing fast, we have something new ________ with all by ourselves every day.

A. deal                     B. dealt                     C. to deal                  D. dealing

5. David threatened ________ his neighbour to the police if the damages were not paid.

A. to be reported       B. reporting              C. to report               D. having reported

6. Nowadays people sometimes separate their waste to make it easier for it ________.

A. reusing                 B. reused                  C. reuses                   D. to be reused
