不定式当副词 or 形容词的问题
Get me some boiled water to drink.这里的to drink 该怎么理解?我的想法是：
1,不定式有表目的的意思,当副词,修饰get ,相当于 To drink,get me some boiled water.
2,接在名词后面的,当形容词后位修饰water,相当于 Get me some boiled water which I can drink.
第一个drink 理解成vi,第二个drink理解成了vt.请问该怎么理解?如何判断?

He is a nice man to work for.
= He is a nice man for whom to work.
= He is a nice man for whom I work.
I work for a nice man = To work for a nice man.有后面这种说法么?

Answer 1

Get me some boiled water to drink.中to drink是不定式作定语的用法,修饰water
不定式做定语的典型例句是：i have a lot of homework to do
我有很多（要做的）作业
但我们习惯于翻译成我有很多作业要做,而误以为是作目的状语,这是个误区
你的第一个解释不正确,第二种是正确的
2,接在名词后面的,当形容词后位修饰water,相当于 Get me some boiled water which I can drink.驳：你既然说是修饰water了,修饰名词的是定语
--------------------------------------
问题2：He is a nice man to work for.
= He is a nice man for whom to work.不对,不相等,从句中没有谓语
= He is a nice man for whom I work.正确
I work for a nice man = To work for a nice man.有后面这种说法么?答：没有,句子怎能等于一个不定式
