一、名词或代词作介词宾语
Are you interested in history?你对历史感兴趣吗？
Don't worry about it.别为它担心。
若是人称代词用作介词宾语，要注意用宾格。如：No one can sing like her.没有人能像她那样唱歌。（不能用like she)
二、动名词作介词宾语
He is good at telling stories.他善于讲故事。
In crossing the street he was run over.他在穿过马路时被汽车撞倒。
三、过去分词作介词宾语
We can't regard the matter as settled.我们不能认为这事已经解决。
I take it for granted you have read the book.我以为你读过这本书。
四、从句作介词宾语
He was not satisfied with what she said.他对她说的不满意。
I'm worried about where he is.我担心他上哪儿去了。
【说明】
介词后通常不接that从句，遇此情况需考虑用其他结构：
误：He paid no attention to that she was poor.
正：He paid no attention to the fact that she was poor.他根本不注意她很穷这一事实。
五、不定式作介词宾语
I had no choice but to wait.除了等，我没有别的选择。
【说明】
介词后接不定式的情形通常只见于but, except等极个别词。该不定式有时带to，有时不带to，其区别是：若其前出现了动词do，其后的不定式通常不带to；若其前没有出现动词do，则其后的不定式通常带to。
六、形容词作介词宾语
Her pronunciation is far from perfect.她的语音远不是完美的。
In short, we must be prepared.总而言之，我们要有准备。
【说明】
有些形容词用作介词宾语可视为其前省略了动名词being：
He regarded the situation as (being) serious.他认为形势严重。
