英英解释: reduce somebody to doing somethingto make someone do something they would rather not do, especially when it involves behaving or living in a way that is not as good as before: Eventually Charlotte was reduced to begging on the streets.
所以,to当介系词时,后面加动词时须改为v-ing,通常动名词的义意,没有动作的意义! 例如: due to owing o relating to next to
只有接「不定词」时,后面才接原形动词,to v 通常 to +原v= in order to 原v ,有「以致于.....」(动词)做某事的意味,例如:
Small businesses will need to reduce costs in order to survive.
