请问下prep里面讲的rules, laws, agreements后面介绍的法规内容需要用V-ing怎么理解？我看了好几个句子，这一条不成立，怎么正确理解这个语法点呢？

quote:

"laws to require..." isn't a correct idiom if you're discussing the actual text of the laws themselves.

if you were discussing the ultimate purpose of those laws, then this could be idiomatic.

examples:
laws specifying long jail sentences for drunk drivers --> correct (___ing), since that's what the laws actually specify.

laws to specify long jail sentences for drunk drivers --> incorrect (that's not the ultimate purpose of the laws)

laws to discourage drunk driving --> correct (this IS actually the ultimate purpose of the laws)
