一、介词by的用法
1.by表示的意义
表示做某事的方式时,用介词by。by后常接动词的ing形式,表示“用……手段/方式”;其后也可接名词,表示“乘……(交通工具)”。by还可以表示时间,意为“在……之前;不迟于”。例如:
He makes a living by selling vegetables.
He went to Beijing by air last Friday.
They will come back by 9 o’clock.
2.对by短语的提问
对由by引导的介词短语作方式状语提问时,用how。例如:
—How do you study for a test?
—By listening to tapes.
二、动名词的用法

动名词作主语时,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。可以用it作形式主语,将动名词改成动词不定式,作真正主语。例如:
Reading in the sun is bad for your eyes.
=It is bad for your eyes to read in the sun.
2.动名词在句中作宾语
动名词在句中作宾语时,一般放在某一及物动词或介词之后充当这一动词或介词的宾语。后跟动名词作宾语的动词或动词短语有:
finish,enjoy,keep,suggest,consider,practice,mind,avoid;can't help,give up,be busy,be worth,how about,thanks for,feel like,be interested in,stop sb.from,be good at 等。例如:
