綜合 — 第五句型動詞的補語整理
在第五句型的句子裡,會出現哪一種形態的受詞補語是由前面的動詞決定的,所以依動詞把它取哪一種補語分組整批背下來,才是實戰中不會動搖的辦法。
概念說明
在第五句型的句子裡,會出現哪一種形態的受詞補語是由前面的動詞決定的,所以依動詞把它取哪一種補語分組整批背下來,才是實戰中不會動搖的辦法。
A. to 不定詞群組 — want / expect / ask / tell / allow
want·expect·ask·tell·order·allow·enable·force·advise·persuade 這一類動詞一定要在受詞後面用 to 不定詞當補語,表示「希望·要求·允許·強迫某人做某事」的意思。請把 動詞 + 受詞 + to 不定詞 這個公式整組記起來。
| 動詞 | 語感 | 例子 |
|---|---|---|
| want | 希望 | I want you to try again. |
| expect | 期待 | We expect them to arrive soon. |
| ask | 請求 | She asked me to open it. |
| tell | 指示 | He told us to be quiet. |
| allow | 允許 | They allow us to leave early. |
| force | 強迫 | She forced him to apologize. |
- The boss wants everyone to attend the meeting. (老闆希望所有人都出席會議。)
- My parents allowed me to stay out late. (父母允許我在外面待到很晚。)
- The doctor advised her to rest more. (醫生建議她多休息。)
- Nothing will force me to change my mind. (沒有任何事能強迫我改變心意。)
B. 原形不定詞群組 — 使役 make/let/have + 感官 see/hear/feel
使役動詞 make·let·have 和感官動詞 see·hear·feel·watch·notice 用不加 to 的原形動詞當受詞補語,而感官動詞還可以接 -ing,因此有「看到全程(原形) vs 看到進行中(-ing)」的語感差別。
| 動詞群 | 補語形態 | 例子 |
|---|---|---|
| make (強制) | 原形動詞 | She made me clean my room. |
| let (允許) | 原形動詞 | Please let me know. |
| have (請求、指派) | 原形動詞 | I had him fix the pipe. |
| see / watch | 原形 / -ing | I saw her dance / dancing. |
| hear | 原形 / -ing | We heard him shout / shouting. |
| feel | 原形 / -ing | I felt someone touch / touching me. |
- My mom made me do the dishes. (媽媽叫我去洗碗。)
- Let me help you with that. (那件事讓我來幫你吧。)
- I heard the phone ring three times. (我聽到電話響了三次。)
- We watched the children playing in the yard. (我們看著孩子們在院子裡玩。)
C. 多形態群組 — get / help / keep / find / leave
get·help·keep·find·leave 會依情況在 to 不定詞·原形動詞·過去分詞·形容詞·-ing 之中取用多種形態,所以要配合上下文來挑選。尤其 get 是人就用 to 不定詞,是事物就用過去分詞(被動),分得很清楚。
| 動詞 | 補語形態 | 例子 |
|---|---|---|
| get (人) | to 不定詞 | I got him to help me. |
| get (事物) | 過去分詞 | I got my hair cut. |
| help | 原形 / to 不定詞 | She helped me (to) move. |
| keep | 形容詞 / -ing | Keep the door closed. / Keep him waiting. |
| find | 形容詞 / -ing / p.p. | I found the book useful. / him sleeping. |
| leave | 形容詞 / -ing / p.p. | Don't leave me alone. / him crying. |
- I finally got my dad to buy me a bike. (我最後讓爸爸幫我買了一台腳踏車。)
- She got her essay edited by a friend. (她請朋友幫她編輯了那篇文章。)
- Can you help me carry these boxes? (可以幫我搬這些箱子嗎?)
- The rain kept us waiting at the station. (因為下雨,我們一直在車站等。)
重點整理
- 1want·expect·ask·tell·order·allow·force 這一類動詞永遠在受詞後面接 to 不定詞,把這條規則整組背起來就解決一半了。(例: I told him to leave.)
- 2使役動詞 make·let·have 的受詞補語只能用不加 to 的原形動詞,這是最常出錯的地方。(例: She made me go.)
- 3感官動詞 see·hear·feel·watch 用原形(看到全程)和 -ing(看到進行中)都可以,只是語感稍有不同,請培養這種語感。(例: I saw him cross / crossing the road.)
- 4get 的對象是人就用 to 不定詞,對象是事物就用過去分詞(被動),這條規則就是 get 第五句型的核心。(例: I got him to help / I got my hair cut.)
- 5help 是例外,後面接的是 (to) 不定詞,在美式會話中省略 to 才自然,請記住這個慣用法。(例: He helped me (to) carry it.)
- 6keep·find·leave 可以接形容詞·-ing·過去分詞等多種補語,形態會依受詞和補語之間的關係(主動/被動)而分岔,請靠上下文來判別。(例: Keep him waiting / Keep the door closed.)
