chance 一词,既可以接不定式,也可以接 of doing 作定语。此外,如果后面是名词,则用 for。

所以,网友的句子完全正确。以下3种表达都是对的:

1. a chance to do sth.

2. a chance of doing sth.

3. a chance for sth.

例如:

Mary threw away a good chance for a better job.  玛丽有过一工作良机,但白白放过了。

来自词典例句

In the past women were cheated out of their chance for education.  从前妇女被剥夺了受教育的机会。

一般没有这种用法,如果是 chance 的话,要么用不定式作后置定语,或者用介词of。


所以,正确是句子应该是:

So how can students increase their chances of getting a job。


或者:

So how can students increase their chances to get a job.

   chance 用作名词时,意思是“机会;运气”、“可能性”。它的后置定语可以是 to do; of doing; of (后接名词); for (后接名词)或者 that 从句。例如:
