(覆水难收） There is no joking about the matter.It is fun playing with children. 和孩子们一起玩真好。 2. 用作宾语1) 作动词的宾语 常见的此类动词有：practise, enjoy, finish, give up, cannot help, keep, keep on, mind, miss, put off, depend on, think about, succeed in, worry about, be used to, get used to, look forward to, pay attention to等。e.g. How do you practice speaking? I have to finish reading a book and give a report.2) 作介词的宾语 1. I learn English by doing grammar exercises.2. Shall we have a rest or get down to doing our work? 3. He was late again because of getting up late.4. Lock the doors and windows before going out. 5. What/How about the two of us playing games？活学活用1. She cant help ________ (cry) after _________ (hear) the bad news.2. Do you feel like _______ (have) a break?3) 既可接动名词又可接不定式的常用动词有：remember, forget, regret, mean, try等，但表达的意义不同。e.g. I remember seeing her at the hotel. 我记得在宾馆见过她。(动作发生了) I will remember to see her at the hotel. 我记着要去宾馆见她。(动作尚未发生)remember/forget/ regret to do 动作尚未发生 doing动作已经发生try to do 设法、努力去做，尽力doing 试试去做（看有何结果）mean to do 打算做（主语一般是人）doing意味着（主语一般是物）regret to do 对将要做的事抱歉doing 对已经发生的事感到后悔stop to do停下去做另外一件事doing停止做手头的事情3. 作表语 动名词作表语时句子主语常是表示无生命的事物的名词或what引导的名词性从句。表语动名词与主语通常是对等/p
