aim at doing ✅
楼下key takeaway
aim at doing,因为aim本身就含有目的的意思,aim to do就显得累赘。同理the goal of doing 而不是the goal to do
be aiming to do / be aimed at doing (*be aimed to do* is wrong)
aim at doing 和 aim at sth都可以吧AC 有人能看看是不是patients的问题吗?
doing强调过程,sth强调prevent本身这件事
不是patients的问题,eldly patients 和 the eldly patient 都可以表示一类人
如果用名词prevention的话,整个句子的重心就变了,aim at the prevention 而不是aim at preventing ... (这件事)
而且用名词prevention后面接了of又接了from,容易弱化prevent ... from ... 的意思,这在GMAT考试中,这是不正确的,这种结构通常都没有prevent sth from doing 意思,from更多的是它的本意,来自
举个栗子

这几天听了RON的课,他说-tion和-ing的区别有几个:第一个是tion代表的是一个general idea,ing更强调这个动作,第二个是tion一般指那种间接(involved)从事而不是直接从事,第三个是tion是impersonal的,是谁做了这个动作根本不重要,常用在就是一个gernal的说法里(比如讲大道理)。这里说 Medicare was enacted,那么这里明确是有一个enact的人的,所以应该用ing。“THE FOCUS IN ON THE ACTUAL PROCESS, NOT THE GENERAL IDEA”

Aim to do 和aim at 都可以,本题先通过Prevent杀掉DE, prevent sth or prevent sb from doing sth;A中aim at不能接名词Prevention,杀掉。BC语意有差别,B是成为一种预防的方法,C是阻止,选C
prevention是impersonal的,不涉及动作方,gerund有主语Involve过程的意思
