思路引導 VIP
請觀察句子中『to』後方的那個動作。在英文中,當我們說『做出一個要做某事的選擇(make a choice to...)』時,這個『to』的功能是引導一個目的或具體動作,還是當作一個指向對象的介係詞呢?試著回想看看,類似的結構如『decide to...』或『plan to...』,後方的動詞通常會呈現什麼樣的型態?

不定詞與動名詞的辨析
這道題目的核心考點在於選項 (D) 的 to。在句構 「made a clear strategic choice to...」(做出一個明確的戰略選擇去...)之中,這裡的 to 是作為「不定詞助詞」使用,其後必須接動詞原形 (V) 以表示目的或行動的內容。因此,原本的 prioritizing 應該改為 prioritize 才是正確的文法表達。雖然在英文中,有些片語的 to 是介係詞(例如 look forward to),但在此處的語境下,使用不定詞才是標準用法。
