动词 let 后面接复合宾语,若宾补为动词,要用原形。如:
Let him go. 让他走吧。
Let me see it. 让我看一看。
Let me buy you a drink. 我给你买杯饮料吧。
Let me fill your glass. 让我把你的杯子斟满。
Let the fire burn down. 让火慢慢地熄灭吧!
Let the tea brew for five minutes. 让茶泡上 5 分钟。
但如果用作宾补的动词是 be 呢?也可以这样用吗?
let之后完全可以接动词原形be作宾语补足语。如:
Let line AB be equal to line CD. 设AB线与CD线等长。《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》
She's too protective towards her children; she should let them be more independent. 她对孩子太过于爱护, 她应当给他们更多的独立性。《简明英汉词典》
We won't let them be treated in that way.我们不能让他们受到这样的对待。(张道真《英语常用动词用法词典》)
▲let...be还可以用作短语“别管;别碰;不打扰”,相当于let...alone。如:
Don't touch that wasp . Let it be. 别碰那黄蜂,让它飞走。《简明英汉词典》
When he doesn't feel like talking, we just let him be.他不想说话时, 我们就听任自便吧。《现代汉英综合大词典》
"I do not want to be examined," he answered. "Let me be."“我不要做检查”,他答道,“别管我”。《双城记》

完全可以的。这样的 be 可以接名词或形容词,也可以接过去分词(构成被动式)。如:

Let the work be done immediately. 工作要马上完成。
