    註:to be bound to 這一片語中的 to 是不定詞(to + 原形動詞),而非介詞(+ 名詞或動名詞)。

    to be doomed to 中的 to 可以作介詞,也可以作不定詞。因此下列兩句都成立:

    Despots are doomed to failure.(介詞)

    The holidays are over; we must get down to work again.

    (注意這裡 work 是名詞,不是動詞。)

    4. 我們上課時必須注意聽講。

    ˇ We should pay attention to what the teacher says in class.

    ˇ We should be attentive in class.

    ˇ We should listen attentively in class.

    5. 他反對讓她參加。
