英语特殊词

1. stop doing/to do

stop to do 　停止，中断做某事后去做另一件事。

stop doing 　停止做某事。

They stop to smoke a cigarette. 他们停下来，抽了根烟。

I must stop smoking.. 我必须戒烟了。典型例题

She reached the top of the hill and stopped ___ on a big rock by the side of the path.

A. to have rested B. resting C. to rest D. rest

答案：C 。由题意可知，她到了山顶，停下来在一个路边的大石头上休息。因此，应选择 "stop to do sth . 停下来去做另一件事" 。而不仅仅是爬山动作的终止，所以 stop doing sth . 不正确。

2. forget doing/to do

forget to do 　忘记要去做某事。　 ( 未做 )

forget doing 　忘记做过某事。　　 ( 已做 )

The light in the office is stil on. He forgot to turn it off.

典型例题

---- The light in the office is still on.

---- Oh，I forgot___.

A. turning it off B. turn it off C. to turn it off D. having turned it off

答案：C 。由 the light is still on 可知灯亮着，即关灯的动作没有发生，因此用 forget to do sth.

而 forget doing sth 表示灯已经关上了，而自己忘记了这一事实。此处不符合题意。
