考点四 是否用不定式
1．有部分动词的习惯用法要求采用不定式复合结构，其基本形式为：动词+宾语+不定式，
如：enable him to dance,          cause the little girl to cry,
consider it to be a great honor,          imagine herself to a soprano
常接不定式复合结构的词有：allow, enable, cause, ask, expect, invite, advise, permit, oblige, help, encourage, persuade, instruct, command, urge, consider, believe, declare, etc.

答案：D
解释：此句主谓俱全, 主语reputation, 谓语rests on, 缺少宾语ability的修饰成分. 根据谓语唯一原则可首先排除A B； C是被动式, 后面不能有宾语, 亦可排除; D为不定式作定语, the ability to do即做某事的能力
