我們知道，在英文中，不定式to do 可以作名詞的后置修飾語(yǔ)，構(gòu)成三種搭配關(guān)系：主—?jiǎng)雨P(guān)系、動(dòng)—賓關(guān)系和同位關(guān)系。其實(shí)，作名詞的后置修飾語(yǔ)，除了用to do，還可以用“介詞+doing”的形式。
一、名詞+to do
有些名詞，其后的修飾語(yǔ)一般用to do。這些名詞有：ability, agreement, ambition, anxiety, curiosity, disposition, mind, obligation, permission, refusal, reluctance, temptation, tendency和wish等。
They have no ability to win the game. 他們沒(méi)能力贏得這場(chǎng)比賽。

She is under no obligation to buy anything for him. 她沒(méi)必要給他買(mǎi)東西。
Wood has a tendency to swell if it gets wet. 木材遇潮易脹。
二、名詞+介詞+doing
有些名詞，其后通常接“介詞+-ing分詞”作后置修飾語(yǔ)，而一般不接to do，例如：aptitude, delay, difficulty, excuse, experience, interest, genius, habit, hope, idea, method, movie, object, passion, plan, possibility, skill和success。

We must improve the method of teaching English. 我們必須改善英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的方法。
三、“名詞+to do”和“名詞+介詞+doing”
除了以上兩種情況所介紹的名詞外，還有一些名詞，后面接“名詞+to do”和“名詞+介詞+doing”兩種形式皆可以，意義上也無(wú)區(qū)別。如：attempt, chance, effort, freedom, intention, necessity, opportunity, reason, time和way。
