Verb + preposition + -ing Unit 60


Unit 60

Verb + preposition + -ing

 

(a) Многие глаголы входят в конструкцию

глагол (V) + предлог (P) + дополнение.

Например, talk about:

 

- We talked about the problem. (about это предлог)

 

Если дополнение является глаголом, то он

заканчивается на -ing:

 

- We talked about going to America. (V + P + -ing)

 

Вот несколько глаголов, которые входят в

конструкцию V + P + -ing:

in

finding a job yet?

going out tonight.

being rich.

(*) I feel like doing = Мне хотелось бы сделать, я склонен

Говорят `apologise to someone for something':

- He apologised to me for keeping me waiting. (а не `he apologised me')

 

Некоторые глаголы входят в конструкцию

глагол + предлог + кто-либо + -ing.

Например:

страдательном залоге:
