No one is born _______ (know) how to make money.
请问是填 to know 还是 knowing?谢谢!
【答】我的看法与二位老师不同。
我认为,本句应该填knowing。句子意思是:没有人生下来就知道怎样赚钱。
现在分词和不定式区别在于:
1. 现在分词knowing表示伴随状语,在时间上与is born 同时发生。意思相当于:No one knows how to make money when he is born.
2. 不定式表示未来的结果,例如:She was born to succeed in life. 她生来注定会成功。这里是指将来成功,是说话人对将来的一种推测。
如果填不定式to know,那么本句的意思是:没有人生下来以后,将来会知道怎样赚钱。——逻辑上讲不通!
二位老师举的例子,虽然不错,但不适合本句的语境。也就是说,有的辞书在讲述某个问题时可能会出现只知其一,不知其二。我们不能生搬硬套。
有一篇著名的散文叫:How to build your life 《打造自己的生活》,其中有这样一句话:
You were born knowing your limitlessness. 你生下来便知道自己的潜能。
跟本句有异曲同工之妙。

看了刘老师的解答,深受启发,我说一点粗浅的想法,敬请三位老师指正:
本题的关键是单词“know”,“知道”与“出生”是同时发生的,所以刘老师说应选现在分词knowing作伴随状语。
黎老师的例句“succeed”, “成功”与“出生”并非同时发生,“出生”在前,“成功”在后。
何素秀老师讲过一道例题,与本题类似,其中 “hope”与“know”类似,“希望”与“跑”是同时发生的。
附:
何素秀老师的一篇文章《原创易错非谓语动词考题赏析》:
He ran as fast as he could ____to catch the bus.
A. hope B. to hope
C. hoping D. hoped
此题的最佳答案不是B,而是C,其中的现在分词短语 hoping to catch the bus 用作伴随状语,即一边跑一边希望能赶上早班车。
