以下是引用carefield在2003-8-15 23:35:00的发言:
A MEANS OF 还是 A MEANS TO? 还是两者有什么区别?


a means of something ; a means to do something


paper of all kinds vs  all kinds of paper

the same meanings, just the focus of the phrase is slightly different. You should know what I mean. The focus of the former is paper while that of the later is not so clear as the previous one.

means后面of和to都是可以的,看后面的名词而定。第一个题目改成of也对
