考点1：不定式被动式to be done作定语，表将来发生；且不定式动词与逻辑主语是被动关系。
不定式被动态作定语，即表未来发生的事情，又表被动。
【2014·北京】28. There are still many problems ______ before we are ready for a long stay on the Moon.
A.solving B. solved C. being solved D.to be solved
分析：答案是D。不定式被动式作定语。根据题干信息是“要去解决的问题”。且由于problem和solve之间是被动关系，所以选D。
There are still many problems to be solved before we are ready for a long stay on the Moon.
在我们准备在月球上长期停留之前，还有许多问题需要解决。
考点2：有两类含不定式的特殊句型，用主动表被动。
分别是: (1) have sth. to do (2) there be +n.+ to do
【2017·天津】10. I was watching the clock all through the meeting, as I had a train ______.
1. catching B. caught C. to catch D. to be caught
分析：答案C。考察have sth to do（有某事要做）。事情是被做的，此句型用不定式作后置定语，不用被动态，而是用主动表被动。
I was watching the clock all through the meeting, as I had a train to catch.
开会期间我一直在看时钟，因为我要赶火车。
【2008·上海】33. If there's a lot of work______. I'm happy to just keep on until it is finished.
A.to do B. to be doing C. done D. doing
分析：答案A。考察there be +n.+ to do 。事情是被做的，此句型用不定式作后置定语，不用被动态，而是用主动表被动。
If there's a lot of work to do, I'm happy to just keep on until it is finished.
如果有很多工作要做，我很乐意继续做，直到完成。
在"there be +主语 ＋不定式"的结构中,当不定式与主语之间在逻辑上有动宾关系时,不定式可以用主动式也可以用被动式，只是侧重点不同。
用主动式作定语重点在人,用被动式作定语重点在物,但在口语中多用主动式表被动的含义。
比如：There is a lot of work to finish. 强调我们要去完成工作，强调我们。
比如：There is a lot of work to be finished. 强调有很多任务，强调这个量大，不强调谁去做。
比如：There is no time to lose. 强调我们不能再浪费时间了，强调我们。
比如：There is no time to be lost. 强调不能再浪费时间了，强调时间宝贵。
考点3：不定式放在不定代词后做定语。
【2016·四川】 She was a very careful mother. For 25 days , she never left her baby, not even to find something ___64__ (eat).
分析：to eat。句意：甚至不去找吃的东西。something to eat。
动词不定式放在不定代词后面作后置定语，当不定式的逻辑主语是句子的主语时，动词不定式作定语时往往用主动式。
She was a very careful mother. For 25 days , she never left her baby, not even to find something to eat.
她是个非常细心的母亲。25天来，她从未离开过她的孩子，甚至不去找吃的东西。

【2014·全国1】While there are __68__ (amaze) stories of instant transformation，for most of us the changes are gradual and require a lot of effort and work，like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be patient.
分析：答案是amazing。放在 stories前面作定语，表示情感心理。
While there are amazing stories of instant transformation，for most of us the changes are gradual and require a lot of effort and work，like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be patient.
虽然有令人惊叹的瞬间转变的故事，但对我们大多数人来说，这些变化是渐进的，需要付出很多努力和工作，就像清理一条被污染的河流一样。请保持耐心。
