标题: a means to do? a means to doing? [打印本页] 作者: xiaobaibai92112 时间: 2014-8-14 17:59 标题: a means to do? a means to doing? More and more in recent years, cities are stressing the arts as a means to greater economic development and investing millions of dollars in cultural activities, despite strained municipal budgets and fading federal support.
(A) to greater economic development and investing
(B) to greater development economically and investing
(C) of greater economic development and invest
(D) of greater development economically and invest
(E) for greater economic development and the investment of
这道题答案A,千行里的解释对a means to do还是 a means to doing前后矛盾。。。求高手解答!另外这里面的greater如果是adj修饰development的话,development和investing 能算平衡吗? 作者: zzx576122628 时间: 2014-8-14 18:53
句意上讲,investing是cities做的,所以cities are stressing ....and investing,排除CDE,AB区别在于economic修饰的是谁,A是促进经济发展,B是节约地发展经济,选A
逻辑上讲,即使你看错了以为invest与greater并列......恩那就没选项了
另外选项中一个区别是means to 和means of
说下我对to 和 of的理解
to代表做什么什么事的方式,有指向性目的性,比如the way to
of表示是什么,比如as a matter of fact...blablabla,表示的是后面的句子就是一个face
本题表示的是强化艺术来发展经济,而不是强化艺术是发展经济的一种方式
关于你的问题,根据我仅有的语法知识,将means类比way
the way to do sth. the way to sth.两者都有,比如回家的方式,回家的路,都可以,意思不同而已,不用太纠结于形式

1. means to + 名词,如果是动词就写成doing。
2. 追求绝对平衡的话就没选项了。这里就是用了一个and而已,没有追求绝对平衡的必要。作者: TheLoneRanger 时间: 2019-7-7 15:32
a means to + n
stressing 平行 investing
