动名词作宾语 ; m* X, p: ~- a$ P5 O
1. 许多动词不能接不定式作宾语,同时又需要动宾结构作宾语,此时动名词便可大显身手了,如:enjoy singing(喜欢唱歌),
' |9 u' w0 u6 N7 H& Y. Q" I avoid looking me in the eye / n. M8 @. A( d+ s
miss crashing into the tree " o2 S- k. q" s* M X3 B. ~

' }9 \$ m$ T- H- u6 p- U% ~ enjoy, mind, delay, avoid, consider, deny, miss, escape, fancy, suggest, insist等 ' v: Z' \. {0 Z/ d9 j
另外, 在一些固定用法当中, 也需要用动名词做宾语, 如:
# R, n; L( V* p6 W+ v" M+ Z9 W can’t help doing, it’s no use doing, it’s worth doing, be busy doing, feel like doing等. 3 O. o, `; W2 t; u. n& L

如: She began playing piano when she was five. : Q; b% s9 R2 r, n: [' y+ c+ z
