eg. They made a list of candidates (候选人)after discussion. make用法: make+宾语+宾语补足语
(1)“make+宾语+n.” 意为“使、让某人 / 某物(成为)……”。如: We made him our monitor. 我们选他当班长。
(2)“make+宾语+adj.” 意为 “使某人 / 某事(变得)……”。如: The news that our team had won made us very happy. 当宾语是不定式短语或从句时,多用it作形式宾语。如:
I made it a condition that everybody must be on time. 我提出一个条件,人人都要准时。 The heavy rain made it impossible for us to go out. 大雨使得我们无法出去。
(3)“make+宾语+do sth.(不带to的不定式)”意为 “使某人做某事”。如:
Our teacher makes us feel more confident. 老师使得我们感到更自信了。 在被动语态中,此类结构中省略的动词不定式 to 要还原。如:
The boy was made to work twelve hours a day. 这个男孩被迫每天干十二个小时的活。
相关链接:have, make, let等使役动词和see, hear, listen to, look at, watch, notice, observe 等感官动词都可接不带to的不定式作宾补。help后可带to,也可不带to。如:
Let him do whatever he wishes to do. 他想干什么就让他干吧。 Did you see him go out? 你看见他出去了吗?
I often help my mother (to) do some housework. 我经常帮助妈妈做些家务。
(4)“make+宾语+V-ed(过去分词作宾补)”这个结构指宾语接受后面的那个动作,表示被动的意思,意为 “使某人 / 某事被……”。如:
The strange noise made us frightened. 奇怪的声音使我们感到恐惧。 The good news made us excited. 这个好消息使我们兴奋。
友情提示:通常情况下,make后的宾语是反身代词时,作宾补的动词要用过去分词,即:make oneself+V-ed (heard, known, understood)。如:
He couldn't make himself heard above the noise of the traffic. 在交通嘈杂声中他无法使自己的声音提高到让别人听到。
但有时,根据句子意思也可用其他形式。如:
The little child stood on the chair to make himself look taller. 那个小孩儿站在椅子上,使他看上去更高些。
( 5)“make+宾语+V-ing(现在分词)”这一结构表示的意思是“使某人 / 某事一直在……”。现在分词与宾语之间存在着逻辑上的主谓关系。如:
He makes the boy standing all the time. 他让那个男孩一直站着。
常接V-ing形式作宾语补足语的动词有:see, watch, hear, observe, notice, feel, find等感官动词和look at, listen to等短语动词以及have, keep, get, make等使役动词。
现在分词作宾补和不带 to 的不定式作宾补的区别是:现在分词一般表示动作正在进行,而不带 to 的不定式则一般表示动作已经完成。如:
I saw him putting his hand into his pocket. (动作正在进行) I saw him put his hand into his pocket. (动作已经完成)
