Mark often attempts to escape being fined whenever he breaks traffic  regulations. 　　
每当马克违反交通规则时，他常常企图逃避罚款的处分。 　　 
2.作介词的宾语 　　
We are thinking of making a new plan for the next term. 我们正考虑为下学期制定新的计划。 　　
Shall we have a rest or get down to doing our work? 我们休息呢还是开始干活？ 　　
3.作形容词的宾语 　　
The music is well worth listening to more than once.  这种曲子很值得多听几遍。 　　
We are busy preparing for the coming sports meet. 我们正为马上到来的运动会忙着做准备。

三、动名词作表语
动名词作表语时句子主语常是表示无生命的事物的名词或what引导的名词性从句。
表语、动名词与主语通常是对等的关系，表示主语的内容，主语、表语可互换位置。 　　
Your task is cleaning the windows.   你的任务就是擦窗户。
(Cleaning the windows is your task.) 　　
What I hate most is being laughed at.  我最痛恨的就是被别人嘲笑。
(Being laughed at is what I hate most.)

四、动名词作定语
动名词作定语往往表示被修饰词的某种用途。如： 　　
a walking stick ＝a stick for walking=a stick which is used for walking 　　
a washing machine=a machine for washing=a machine which is used for washing 　　 
a reading room=a room for reading=a room which is used for reading 　　
a measuring tape=a tape for measuring=a tape which is used for measuring 　　
sleeping pills=pills for sleeping=pills which is used for sleeping

动名词是非限定动词的一种形式，由动词原形+ing构成。它既有动词的特征，又有名词的特征，故称。
动名词也有时态和语态的变化，如表所示（以及物动词write为例），不及物动词没有语态的变化。

时态、语态	主动	被动
一般式	writing	being  written
完成式 having written		having been written

动名词使用注意事项：
1） 动名词做主语时，谓语动词为单数
2） 在动名词和不定式中，作为介词的宾语是动名词
3） 动名词的否定直接在其前加否定词，通过代词的宾格或所有格形式给出逻辑主语
例：I would appreciate you calling back this afternoon.
4） 有些词后只能接动名词
acknowledge;admit; advise;advocate;allow;appreciate; avoid; celebrate; consider; contemplate; defer; delay; deny;
detest; discontinue; dislike; dispute; enjoy; it entails; escape; excuse; explain; fancy; feel like; finish; forgive; can’t help;
hinder; imagine; it involves; keep; it means; mention; mind; miss; it necessitates; pardon; postpone; practice; prevent;
recall; report; resent; resist; risk; suggest; understand...
5） 另外还有一些接-ing形式的常用说法
it’s no good; it’s no/little/hardly any/ use; it’s not/hardly/scarcely use; it’s worthwhile; spend money/time; there’s no;
there’s no point in; there’s nothing worse than; what’s the use/point
6） 有些词后面加不定式和动名词均可
remember,forget,try,stop,go on,continue,stop,regret,cease,mean后面均可用不定式和-ing形式，但意义截然不容。
例：remember to do/doing：
①I remembered to post the letters.（指未来/过去未来将要做的动作）
②I remembered posting/having posted the letters.（我记得做过这个动作）
 forget与remember的用法类似。
 regret的用法：
①I regret to inform you that…（我很遗憾地通知你……）
②I regretted having left the firm after twenty years.（为了“二十年前的离开”而遗憾。）
 try to（努力）与try +–ing（试验）：
①You really must try to overcome your shyness.
②Try practicing five hours a day.

考点名称：一般过去时

• 一般过去时:
  表示过去某个时间里发生的动作或状态；过去习惯性、经常性的动作、行为；过去主语所具备的能力和性格。
  基本结构：
  主语+动词过去式+其他；
  否定形式①was/were+not;②在行为动词前加didn't，同时还原行为动词；
  一般疑问句Did+主语+do+其他。

• 一般过去时句法结构：
  肯定形式
  主语+动词过去式+其他
  例句：She often came to help us in those days.
  否定形式
  ①was/were+not；②在行为动词前加didn't，同时还原行为动词
  例句：I didn't know you like coffee
  一般疑问句
  ①Did+主语+do+其他？ ②Was\Were+主语+表语?
  例句：Did I do that?
  用表格整理如下：

  肯定式	疑问式	否定式	疑问否定式
  Iworked	Did I work?	I did not work	Did I not work?
  He(She,It) worked	Did he(she,it) work?	He(she,it) did not work	Did he(she,it) notwork?
  We worked	Did we work?	We did not work	Did we not work?
  You worked	Did you work?	You did not work	Did you not work?
  They worked	Did they work?	They did not work	Did they not work?

  记忆口诀：
  一般过去时并不难，过去动作、状态记心间。
  动词要用过去式，时间状语句末站。
  否定句很简单，didn't 站在动原前，其它部分不要变。
  一般疑问句也好变，did放在句子前，主语、动原、其它部分依次站。
  特殊疑问句也简单，疑问词加一般疑问句记心间。
  最后一条请注意，动词过去式要牢记！
  
  一般过去时中动词过去式变化规则：
  

  词	构成	举例
  一般情况	词尾+ed	动词原形	过去式和过去分词
  		look talk	looked talked
  以不发音字母e结尾	词尾+d	like arrive	liked arrived
  以“辅以字母+y”结尾	变y为i，再加ed	fly study	flied studied
  以重读闭音节结尾，且末尾只有一个辅音字母	双写词尾+ed	stop plan	stopped planned

  
  结构句型:
  1．一般句子
  I watched TV last night.
  2．一般疑问句
  Did you watch TV last night？
  3．there be 句型
  There was an apple on the table last night.
  Was there an apple on the table last night

• 一般过去时注意事项：
  1.注意主句与从句中时态的一致性
  如果主句用了过去时，从句中一般也要用过去式，或者过去进行时、过去完成时等。例如：
  He believed that he was right. 他相信自己是对的。
  I didn’t know you were here. 我不知道你在这儿。
  I thought they were with you. 我以为他们和你在一起。
  
  2.在口语中， 一般过去时并不一定指真正的过去，而只是表示一种礼貌性语气。例如：
  I wondered (wonder) if you could do me a favor. 不知你可否帮我一个忙。
  I wanted (want) to ask if I could borrow your car. 我想问问可否借用你的车。
  I hoped (hope) you could (can) give me some advice. 我希望你能帮我出点主意。
