動(dòng)詞不定式的省略

爲(wèi)了避免重複，我們常常把作賓語、賓補(bǔ)和謂語動(dòng)詞的一部分的不定式省略，衹保畱動(dòng)詞不定式的符號(hào)to?，F(xiàn)將常見省略不定式的幾種情況通過實(shí)例加以簡析，供大家蓡考：

(1)—How about coming to my house?

—I'd love to if it doesn't give you so much trouble.

在hope, like, love, promise, want, wish等詞後作賓語的不定式常省略。再如：

You may go if you want to.

She can get a job if she hopes to.

—How about going hunting with me tomorrow?

—I'd like to, but I have no time.動(dòng)詞不定式的省略
