英语语法的桌球理论--对不定式的理解。不定式更像是一套组合拳

不定式更像是一套组合拳,没必要去拆开来。

比如 is to do... 或  manage to do...等

另外,形容词有时 有动词的意思,比如  experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate

------------

有些句子的不定式,通过有两或三个动词,我把这种现象总结为桌球语法,就是把球打出去,还会再传下去。有时可能还会再传一次,形成三次。
 

比如
While Alfred's little army slowly began to gather at Athelney, the king himself set out to penetrate the camp of Guthrum

began to gather 和 set out to penetrate就有两个球,即两个动词构成句子。

-----
又如:
In 1928 some porpoises were photographed working like beavers to push ashore a waterlogged mattress

work to do 是不定式。

photographed working  里,working是动名词。 关于现在分词或过去分词的理解,请看这>

------------

还有三个动词的用法:

比如第三册的第二课:
Our vicar is always raising money for one cause or another, but he has never managed to get enough money to have the church clock repaired.

manage, get, have分别是三个动词。
