The light in the office is stil on. He forgot to turn it off. 辦公室的燈還在亮著,他忘記關(guān)了。(沒有做關(guān)燈的動作)
He forgot turning the light off. 他忘記他已經(jīng)關(guān)了燈了。(已做過關(guān)燈的動作)
典型例題
---- 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 可知燈亮著,即關(guān)燈的動作沒有發(fā)生,因此用forget to do sth.而forget doing sth表示燈已經(jīng)關(guān)上了,而忘記了這一事實。此處不符合題意。
