attract sb to do sth,英语中有人这样用,但很少见,多数人一般认为不规范,所以可靠例句难找。规范的用法为tempt/induce/encourage等词 +sb.to do sth.但给你个国外论坛链接供参考,这里回答了你的问题。https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/attract-someone-to-do-something.3240137/

 一位韩国朋友问:

Hi all, is the construction "attract someone to do something" correct? For example:

Korea is so famous for K-pop now that it has attracted many people to visit it.

With a cleaner environment, we can attract more customers to spend at our shop.

We need to attract more young people to join our team!

Many thanks! :)

一位英国网友回答:

But

With a cleaner environment, we can attract more customers to spend their money at our shop.

With

Korea is so famous for K-pop now that it has attracted many people to visit it.

There is a difficulty - the first "it" refers to Korea, and the second "it" refers to "K-pop" and it is not possible to "visit" K-pop...
