高中英語語法之to do sth和for [of] doing sth

1. capacity能力,才能

表示做某事的能力,capacity后可接 to do sth, for doing sth, of doing sth。如:

Her capacity to remember facts is remarkable. 她的記憶力很驚人。

He has a great capacity for enjoying himself. 他很會想辦法自得其樂。

The boy shows a great capacity to learn [of learning, for learning] languages. 這孩子顯露出學(xué)習(xí)語言的卓越能力。

2. means 方式,方法,手段;財力,金錢

(1) 表示做某事的方法,means后通常接of doing sth。如:

We had no means of warning them. 我們沒有辦法警告他們。

There is no means of finding out what happened. 無法弄清發(fā)生了什么事情。

Can you devise a means of overcoming the problem? 你能想出法子來解決這個難題嗎?

有時也可后接不定式,但不如后接of doing sth常見。如:

My English teacher provided me with the means to enjoy reading poetry. 我的英語老師告訴了我欣賞詩歌的方法。

另外,有時也可后接 for doing sth,也不如用of doing sth 常見。如:

It’s an effective means for finding qualified job applicants. 這是尋找合適求職者的有效方法。

(2) 表示做某事的財力,其后通常接不定式,且尤其見于have the means to do sth這一結(jié)構(gòu)。如:

He doesn’t have the means to support a wife and child. 他沒有錢養(yǎng)活妻子和孩子。

Small businesses don’t have the means to develop a sophisticated Internet presence. 小企業(yè)通常沒有財力投資建設(shè)復(fù)雜的因特網(wǎng)平臺。

3. responsibility

(1)表示做某事的責(zé)任或負(fù)責(zé)做某事,其后通常接of [for] doing sth,而不接不定式。如:

Mr Smith will take the responsibility of [for] doing the experiment. 史密斯先生將負(fù)責(zé)做這個實驗。

She is charged with the responsibility of [for] receiving callers and answering letters. 她被安排負(fù)責(zé)接待來訪者和回信。

(2)但是,在have [feel] a responsibility結(jié)構(gòu)后可以接不定式。如:

Every citizen has a responsibility to vote. 每個公民都有投票選舉的責(zé)任。

They have a responsibility to discover which wives have walked out on their husbands. 他們有責(zé)任找出哪些妻子拋棄了丈夫。

注:類似下面這樣的句子,responsibility后面的不定式不是定語,而是句子主語:

To my mind it’s the government’s responsibility to help these people. 依我看幫助這些人是政府的責(zé)任。
