關(guān)閉窗口 習(xí)慣上后接to do sth和of doing sth的常見名詞
1. ability 能力，才能
按傳統(tǒng)語法，要表示“做某事的能力”，ability后面習(xí)慣上要接不定式。如：
Hardy had the ability to see this. 哈代有能力看到這一點(diǎn)。
I’m sure of his ability to cope with this. 我肯定他有能力應(yīng)付此事。
His ability to get on with people is his chief asset. 他與人融洽相處的能力是他的主要資本。
但是，在現(xiàn)代英語中，ability后面也可接 of doing sth，雖然不如接不定式普遍。如：
I admire his ability of doing the work quickly. 我羨慕他工作做得快。
2. ambition 雄心，抱負(fù)，夙愿
表示“想做某事的雄心”，其后通常接不定式。如：
She realized her ambition to succeed as an artist. 她實(shí)現(xiàn)了成為藝術(shù)家的抱負(fù)。
His parents do not sympathize with his ambition to be an actor. 他父母不贊成他當(dāng)演員的志愿。
有時(shí)也接of doing sth，但不如接不定式的情形普通。如：
She never achieved her ambition of becoming a famous writer. 她一直沒有實(shí)現(xiàn)當(dāng)名作家的夙愿。
My family is right behind me in my ambition to become [of becoming] a doctor. 我們家對(duì)我立志當(dāng)醫(yī)生完全支持。
3. challenge 挑戰(zhàn)
按傳統(tǒng)語法，要表示“做某事的挑戰(zhàn)”“挑戰(zhàn)做某事”，challenge后習(xí)慣上要接不定式。如：
I took up his challenge to run a race. 我接受他提出和我賽跑的挑戰(zhàn)。
He accepted his friend’s challenge to swim across the river. 他接受朋友的挑戰(zhàn)，比賽游過河去。
但是，在現(xiàn)代英語中，名詞challenge后面有時(shí)也可后接of doing sth作定語，雖然不如接不定式普遍。如：

4. chance 機(jī)會(huì)；可能性
(1) 表示做某事的機(jī)會(huì)，chance（可數(shù)或不可數(shù)）后面可接不定式作定語，也可接of doing sth作定語。如：

(2) 表示做某事的可能性，chance（不可數(shù)）后面通常接 of doing sth，很少接不定式。如：

(1) 若泛指做某事的決心或決定，其后通常接不定式作定語。如：

(2) 若特指（如有定冠詞或物主代詞修飾）某人做某事的決心或決定，其后可接動(dòng)詞不定式或of doing sth（但遠(yuǎn)不如接不定式普通）。如：
