225　do nothing but do

◎ do nothing but do這個(gè)句型表示“除了……不做別的”或“別無(wú)選擇，只能”。本結(jié)構(gòu)中的do前不可加to。

He did nothing but lie in bed watching TV. 他只是躺在床上看電視。

We could do nothing but wait and see. 我們別無(wú)他法，只能等著瞧。

提示

① 類(lèi)似結(jié)構(gòu)還有：have no choice but to do，have no chance but to do，注意，這兩個(gè)句型中的to不可省。

They had no choice but to sleep in the open. 他們別無(wú)他法，只能在露天過(guò)夜。

② There is nothing to do but（to）do中的to可省。
