335 用于 go 和 come 之后的目的不定式
一般在祈使语气或 go 和 come 的不定式之后不再使用目的不定式。常用 Go and find Bill(去把比尔找来)来代替 Go to find Bill;用 Come and talk to Ann(来跟安说说话)来代替 Come to talk to Ann。即:两个祈使动词用and连接起来时可代替一个命令+目的不定式。
在一般情况下说:
I must go and help my mother.
我必须去帮助我母亲。
I'll come and check the accounts.
我将来清理账目。
而不是说:
I must go to help my mother.
I'll come to check the accounts.
即:用 and 连接两个不定式结构来代替不定式 + 目的不定式结构。(参见第246节I。)
但如 go 和 come 用做动名词或以任何现在时态和过去时态出现时,应带一个表示目的的不定式:
I'm thinking of going to look for mushrooms.
我想去采蘑菇。
I went to help my mother.
我去帮助母亲了。
I've come to check the accounts.
我来查账来了。
I didn't come to talk to Bill;I came to talk to you.
我不是来跟比尔说话的;我是来跟你说话的。 |
