provide/give clues to sth.

老兄，美国传统辞典上for的第一释义就是表目的：Used to indicate the object, aim, or purpose of an action or activity:
为了（用来指一个动作或活动的目的、目标或意图）

running,你看og上，绝对没有for表示目的的句子，只要遇到表示目的的考察，全部都是to引导的，我简直可以打赌了。

另外我是美眉，不老，也不是兄，所以不是老兄。。

he he ,anyway, thanks for your reply.

Explaination from webster's:

FOR
A   used as a function word to indicate purpose //a grant for studying medicine//
B   used as a function word to indicate an intended goal //left for home//  
C   used as a function word to indicate the object or recipient of a perception, desire, or activity //now for a good rest// //run for your life// //an eye for a bargain//

I am extremly puzzled with the choice for days like LZ. Thanks.

我也觉得在OG上表目的只能用TO的。而FOR是表原因。

for doing sth 在GMAT考试中肯定算错的,OG中有很多这样的例子

我也选C

学GMAT不要太教条了。

这个地方 provide 和 for是固定搭配。 provide sth for doing...

GDW里面还有好几个真题也是用for doing的。

（1）     GWD-18-Q19

New genetic evidence—together with recent studies of elephants’ skeletons, tusks, and other anatomical features—provide compelling support for classifying Africa’s forest elephants and its savanna elephants as separate species.

1. provide compelling support for classifying
2. provide compelling support for the classification of
3. provides compelling support to the classification of
4. provides compelling support for classifying
5. provides compelling support to classify

 D the best   support for doing sth.是固定搭配

A.     to borrow money, with their objectives being to protect.

B.     to borrow money, the objectives of which are the protecting of

C.    to borrow money, limitations intended to protect.

D.    for borrowing money, of which the objective is protecting.

E.     for borrowing money, limitations with the intent of protecting.

E, limitation for borrowing是指限制借钱。limitation to borrowing是 为了借钱。

做题一定要搞清楚逻辑意思和习惯用法啊。

provide 。。。for。。。

provide 。。。。with。。。/provide with

provide against sth

provide that

这里就是provide for 固定搭配
