老师您好,如果想表达“这是唯一一件值得我为之奋斗的事”应该怎么表达最地道呢?我想了两种,不知道对不对。
That's the only thing which is worth me striving for.
That's the only thing which is worthy for me to strive for.
如果想用 deserve 表达,又应该怎样说呢?
1 你的第一句修改如下:
This's the only thing that is worth my striving for.
worth在表语位置为介词,后接动名词为悬空动名词,即动名词为主动意义,主语在逻辑上是动名词或动名词短语中的介词的宾语。
2 worthy 作表语,后接of介词短语或不定式作形容词补足语,但无论是不定式还是 of +动名词,都不能用悬空结构。所以,你的第二句应改为:
That's the only thing which is worthy to be/of being the goal of my striving.
3 deserve后接动名词作宾语,doing为主动形式表示被动意义。但strive为不及物动词,没有被动意义,所以不能用动名词作deserve的宾语。改用不定式作宾语:
This is the only thing that deserves to be the goal of my striving.
