常用结构:
require that+主语+(should)+动词原形 需要某人做某事
require sb. to do sth. 命令某人做某事
require sth.(of sb.) 要求(某人)某事
I will do everything that is required of me.
凡是要求我的事,我都会办到。
The situation requires that I(should)be there.
形势需要我去那里。
温馨提示
require后接宾语从句时,宾语从句必须用should do的虚拟语气,其中should可以省略。
另外,表示"需要",且是物作主语时,后接动词 ing形式的主动形式表示被动含义,可以等于不定式被动形式;在这一点上,need和want用法相同。
The house requires mending.
=The house requires to be mended. 房屋需要维修。
All cars require servicing regularly.
所有汽车都需要定期检修。
They required him to keep it a secret.
他们要求他对这事保密。
