■他不喜欢同她一起出去。
误:He dislikes to go out with her.
正:He dislikes going out with her.
析:与 like to do sth=like doing sth不同,dislike(不喜欢) 后接动词时,在现代英语中通常只用动名词,不用不定式。尽 管偶尔可见后接不定式的用例,但已属过时用法,学生应试时 应避免。事实上现在已有不少正规考题都将 dislike to dosth 纳入改错范围,如1996年硕士研究生入学试题(改错题): Some bosses dislike to allow people to share theirresponsibilities; they keep all important matterstightly in their own hands.(注:dislike 后不定式用错,应改为动名词)。
■他不喜欢别人对他那样说话,是吗?
误:He dislikes being spoken to like that, does he?
正:He dislikes being spoken to like that, doesn’t he?
析:陈述句部分有 dislike 时,其反意问句的疑问部分要用否定式。类例:It’s unfair, isn’t it? (这不公平,是吗?)
■我不爱听你吹口哨。
误:I dislike when you whistle.
正:I dislike it when you whistle.
析:dislike 在现代英语中通常只用作及物动词,其后不能没有宾语。注:上句中 when 从句不能视为 dislike的宾语从句,它是一个状语从句(when=当...的时候),其中的 it 代替 you whistle 这件事。
■我非常讨厌打牌赌博。
误:I have a strong dislike to play cards for money.
正:I have a strong dislike to playing cards for money.
析:在 have a dislike to(不喜欢)中,to是介词,不是不定式符号。注:也可用 have a dislike for [of](不喜欢)。
