    76 动名词复合结构的用法 Track 076

    (1)动名词复合结构常在句中作主语或宾语
    a. Tom’s coming home at last was a great consolation. (作主语)
    b. Do you mind my making a suggestion? (作及物动词宾语)
    c. Our discussion of earthquakes would be incomplete if we didn’t raise the possibility of their being caused by external forces.
    要是我们没有考虑到外部力量造成地震的可能性,那么我们对于地震的研究还有所欠缺。(作介词宾语)
    d. Clint insisted on my reading the letter.
    e. What are the chances of a sleepwalker’s committing a murder or doing something else extraordinary in his sleep?
    梦游者在睡梦中实施谋杀或做出一些其他反常活动的可能性有多大?
    这种动名词复合结构在某些情况下,可以将其中的物主代词改为宾格代词(如him,me,you等),或将其中的名词所有格(如Mary’s,Tom’s等)改为普通格名词(如Mary,Tom等)。如:
    a. It’s no use Tom arguing with his boss.
    b. Do you mind me making a suggestion?
    c. I am annoyed about John forgetting to pay.
    (2)在使用动名词复合结构时,什么时候用普通格,什么时候用所有格,一般遵循以下原则:
    1)若动名词复合结构在句中作主语,最好用所有格形式:
    a. Tom’s refusing to accept the invitation upset me.
    b. His refusing to accept the invitation upset me. (不宜用him refusing)
    c. It was a great consolation his coming home at last. (不宜用him coming)
    2)动名词复合结构在句中作宾语时,用普通格所有格均可
    a. Do you mind me making a suggestion?
    b. I am annoyed about John forgetting to pay.
