Step 2 Explanations
I 动词不定式的时态和语态形式
时 态主 动被 动
一般式 to doto be done
进行式 to be doing
完成式 to have done to have been done
1. 动词不定式的一般式：表示与主动词处于同一时间层面或动作发生于主动词之后。
eg: He seems to understand what I said
I hope to visit Paris again.
2. 动词不定式的进行式：表示与主动词同时发生且动作正在进行。
eg: The two cheats pretended to be working hard.
3. 动词不定式的完成式：表示不定式动作发生于主动词之前。
eg: She seems to have seen this film.
He happened to have gone out when I went to see him
4. 动词不定式的被动式：表示与逻辑主语之间的被动关系。
eg: The meeting to be held tomorrow is about how to stop the pollution.
I want to have been told the news earlier.
Ⅱ动词不定式的句法功能
不定式的句法功能是做主语，表语，宾语，宾语补足语，主语补足语，定语，目的状语和结果状语，分别给出一个例句 ：
1） To master a foreign language is necessary for a college student.
(主语)
2） Your job is to wash dishes.（表语）
3） She promised to give him a chance. (宾语)
4） The teacher told his students to pay attention to their pronunciation.（宾语补足语）
5） I was asked to help him with his lessons.（主语补足语）
6） Have you got a pencil to draw pictures with?（定语）
7） Some scientists went to Germany to attend a medical conference.（状语）
8） He was too excited to say anything.（状语）
Ⅲ 不定式的复合结构
1）“疑问词+不定式”可以做主语，宾语，表语，同位语。
The problem is how to persuade him to change his mind.
2) 带有逻辑主语的结构of/ for sb. to do sth
The first thing to do is to clean the room.
It is foolish of you to say such words.
辨析：⑴ It is + adj.+ of sb + to do sth.;// ⑵It is + adj.+ for sb + to do sth.
差别：以上（1）结构中的adj是用说明主语的特征的，并作其表语； 而结构（2）中的adj是用说明句中动词的特征的。
Eg: It’s foolish of you to do such things
可转化为：You’re foolish to do such things.
但:It’s easy for you to learn English well
不可以象上边那样转化。
Step 3 Practice.

1.It's very kind of you ________ it for me. (do)

Can’t help but结构
区别：can’t help doing …禁不住…

1、不定式动词在介词but, except, besides等表示“除了……”之意的后面时，如果这些介词之前有行为动词do的各种形式，那么介词后的不定式不带to,否则带to。
