英语中有些动词,如believe,consider,think,find等,当连系动词be的一般体不定式to be在其后作宾语补语时,to be可以省略掉,只留下后面的名词或形容词作宾语补语;但在有些动词如allow,know等后,to be却不能省略。笔者发现,to be能否省略主要取决于动词及其词义。现把这类动词作一归纳。 Some verbs in English, such as believe, consider, think, find, etc., when the general infinitive of the conjunction verb be to be used as the object complement later, to be can be omitted, leaving behind the noun or adjective Object complement; but after some verbs such as allow, know, etc., to be cannot be omitted. The author finds that whether or not to be omitted depends mainly on the verb and its meaning. Now sum up such verbs.
