重点说明 :
It's easy to recognize
the apple is sweet enough to eat
如果一个不定式的前面是一个形容词, 如果主句的结局是系表结构+to, 不定式当中常用主动表被动, 在不定式的表达方式当中, 动词的宾语如果刚好是这句话的主语, 这个宾语一定不能出现
the apple is too sour to eat.(sour adj [5σαϑΕ(ρ)] 酸的)
......to answer the question 这个小孩足够聪明以至于能回答这个问题, “the question” 不是主语故一定要出现
the question is easy enough to answer.
文中 “...easy to recognize(car)” 因car是主语, 所以不能出现
在不定式当中, 也许有可能用主动表达被动含义, 及物动词后面一般加宾语(这个宾语就是这句话的主语就不加), 又如 : the clothes are too comfortable to ware.
