在不定式標志to前加上not.例如:
Tell him not to shut the window.讓他別關窗。
She pretended not to see me when I passed by. 我走過的時候,她假裝沒看見。
典型例題
1)Mrs. Smith warned her daughter ___ after drinking.
A. never to drive B. to never driver C. never driving D. never drive
答案:A.warn sb to do sth. 的否定形式為warn sb not to do sth. 此處用的是否定詞never.
2) The boy wanted to ride his bicycle in the street,but his mother told him ____.
A. not toB. not to doC. not do it D. do not to
答案:A.not to 為not to do it 的省略形式。可以只用to這個詞,而不必重復整個不定式詞組。及物動詞do后應有賓語,因此也B,D不對。
