　　(1)dare作情態動詞時後面接動詞原形(不帶to的動詞不定式).如：

I daren't say that.

Dare you go with me?(肯定回答：Yes, I dare. 否定回答：No, I dare not.)

How dare you say that?

If he dare break the rule , he will be punished .

注意：dare作情態動詞時主要用於疑問句,否定句和條件從句中,不用於肯定句(只有一個例外—I dare say,但那是一個固定短語,意思是“我相信, 可能, 我想是這樣”).

　　(2)實義動詞dare後面接動詞不定式to do.如：

I dare to swim across the river

I don't dare to say that.

Do you dare to go with me?(肯定回答：Yes, I do. 否定回答：No, I don't.)

　　(3)在否定句或疑問句中,現代英語口語常用實義動詞的dare,但省略後面的to,直接接動詞原形.如：

I don't dare say that.

Do you dare go with me?
