动名词的用法动名词是非谓语动词的一种，它由动词原形加-ing 构成，形式上与现在分词相同。
动名词除具有动词的性质外，还具有名词的性质。
动名词在句中可用作主语、表语、宾语、定语、宾语补足语等，但不能用作谓语（故称动名词为非谓语动词）。
如： Her job is looking after the baby.她的工作是照顾婴儿。
She’s gone out to do some shopping. 她出去买东西了。
一、动名词的句法功能1．用作主语Finding work is difficult these days. 现在找工作可不容易。
注意：动名词作主语经常采用it 作形式主语的句型。
2．用作表语Her favorite sport is skating.她最喜爱的运动是滑冰。
注意：不定式和动名词均可用作主语和表语，区别是：动名词多指笼统的、抽象的概念，而不定式则多指具体的、一次性的动作。
3．用作宾语介词后出现动词时，通常要用动名词形式，不能用动词原形，通常也不用不定式。
He left without saying good-bye. 他没有告别就离开了。
4．用作定语He bought a new washing machine. 他买了一台新洗衣机。
Betty won the first prize in the singing competition. 贝蒂获得了歌咏比赛的一等奖。
