四、 语法要点：need to do 和 need doing 的用法
need 既可以是实义动词也可以是情态动词。本课重点是它作实义动词时的两种主要结构：
need to do sth.：表示"需要（主动）做某事"。
need随主语的人称和数变化（he/she/it 用needs）。He needs to get up early. (他需要早起。)
She needs to get some rest. (她需要休息。)
He needs to go to the hospital. (他需要去医院。)
Maybe I need to have a good rest tonight. (也许我今晚需要好好休息一下。本课对话原句)need doing（= need to be done）：表示"需要（被动）被……"，主语是动作的承受者。
My watch needs to be repaired. = My watch needs repairing. (我的手表需要修理。)
My hair needs washing badly. (我的头发非常需要洗一洗。)
Pets need to be taken out for a walk every day. (宠物得每天带出去遛一遛。)
💡 判断技巧：看主语是动作的"发出者"还是"承受者"。
- 主语自己去做 →
need to do：He needs to repair the watch. (他需要修这块表。)- 主语被动接受动作 →
need doing/need to be done：The watch needs repairing. (这块表需要被修。)

💡 综合背诵范文 (Recommended Sample)
Question: What do you usually do when you are sick?
Answer: When I'm sick, I usually stay at home and have a good rest. If I have a headache or catch a cold, I drink more warm water and take some medicine. If it gets worse, I will go to the hospital and see a doctor. I also remember to take care of myself and not get too tired. Last month, I forgot my umbrella and got wet in the rain. I caught a cold the next day, so now I always check the weather before going out.
