表示“結(jié)果”的方法歸納

一、用不定式表示結(jié)果

1. (only) to do sth

We came home to find our garden neat and tidy. 我們回到家里發(fā)現(xiàn)花園整整齊齊。

He hurried to the house only to find that it was empty. 他急忙趕到那所房子，卻發(fā)現(xiàn)空無一人。

He survived the crash only to die in the desert. 飛機(jī)墜毀時(shí)他幸免于難，后來卻死在沙漠里。

說明：帶有副詞修飾語 only 的不定式通常表示一種出乎意料的結(jié)果，見上例。

2. enough to do sth

The patient is well enough to sit up in bed now. 病人現(xiàn)在已能在床上坐起來了。

He’s big enough to go out without his parents. 他已長(zhǎng)大，不用父母陪著出門了。

3. too …to do sth

It is too soon for me to say whether the scheme will succeed or not. 現(xiàn)在要我來說計(jì)劃能否成功還為時(shí)過早。

As a conductor he is too experienced to mind what the critics say. 他是一位經(jīng)驗(yàn)非常豐富的指揮家，根本不會(huì)在乎評(píng)論家的意見。

注意，如果too之后的形容詞是anxious, glad, good, pleased, ready, thankful, true, willing等，則其后的動(dòng)詞不定式修飾的是這些形容詞，而不是修飾too，所以表肯定的意思。此時(shí)的too前面通常會(huì)有only, just等修飾。如：

I’m only too glad to stay at home. 我太想留在家里啦。(too修飾glad to stay at home)

I’m just too anxious to help you. 我正是想幫助你哩。(too修飾anxious to help you)

You are too ready to find faults in other people. 你就愛找別人的岔兒。(too 修飾ready to find...people)

4. so...as to do sth

I’m not so simple as to think it will be easy. 我決不至于笨得以為那是容易的事。

5. such...as to do sth
