1. 用作動詞，注意以下搭配：
(1) 用于report sb，表示“告發某人”。如：
It won’t be necessary for him to report to the police. 他沒必要去報告警察。
(2) 用于report to sb，表示“向某人報告”。如：

(3) 用于report sb to sb，表示“向某人告發某人”。如：

用于report sth to sb，表示“將某事向某人報告或匯報”。如：

2. 用作動詞時，若后接動詞作賓語，要用動名詞（可用一般式或完成式），不能用不定式。如：
They reported having seen him in Bringhton. 他們說在布賴頓見到了他。
He reported having met only a cyclist. 他報告說只碰到一個騎自行車的人。
這類用法通常可與后接that從句的用法轉換。如：

正：They reported seeing [having seen] UFOs.
正：They reported that they had seen UFOs.
3. 用作動詞時雖然不能直接跟不定式作賓語，但可接“賓語+不定式”。如：
They reported a star to have appeared in the East. 他們報道東方出現了一顆星星。
Everyone reported him to be the best man for the job. 大家都說他是做這工作最合適的人。
這類結構主要用于被動語態。如：
A girl is reported to be missing. 據報導一個女孩失蹤了。
He is reported to have been chosen chairman of the trade union. 據說他當選了工會主席。
注意，被動式be reported 是一個常用結構，其后可以接不定式、分詞、介詞短語、as短語等。如：
He’s reported to be still in prison. 據報道他還在坐牢。
He was reported to have broken the world record. 據報道他打破了世界紀錄。

4. 用于It is reported that…，意為“據說……”，比較以下同義句：
據說她每年賺1,000多萬美元。
正：it is reported that she earns over $10 million a year.
正：She is reported to earn over $10 million a year.(www.52ysedu.com)
