标题: 请教所有格后+动名词的情况
24. In virtually all types of tissue in every animal species,
dioxin induces the production of enzymes that are the
organism’s trying to metabolize, or render harmless,
the chemical that is irritating it.
OG的解释认为the -ing form of a verb can be used as a noun (e.g., running is her favorite sport), but it is often awkward, particularly when used with a possessive, as in this case.

但是麦哈顿253页的给出的解释是
A noun preceding a gerund must be in the possessive case if the noun is the doer of the
action described by the gerund.
Wrong: Mike SWIMMING is the product of new coaching techniques.
Right: Mike's SWIMMING is the product of new coaching techniques.

有机体的尝试和麦克的游泳?两者是一个意思吧。
有点不解。

swimming的名词就是swimming
所以Mike's swimming很正确

但是,trying作为名词?似乎没这么一说,或者很不地道。意思上,是用attempt这个名词。
类似这样的例子有很多,就说英语里存在这个名词词汇,那么就不用v-ing作为名词。比如:

Her performance
就不说成"her performing"
