TOEIC Part5「動名詞」の解き方と頻出パターン｜練習10問つき

動名詞の問題は、-ing を目的語にとる動詞と、前置詞の後ろの形がポイントです。不定詞（to do）との区別を、動詞ごとに覚えておくと速く解けます。

解き方のポイント

-ing をとる動詞：consider / avoid / enjoy / finish / postpone / suggest / recommend / mind
前置詞の後ろは必ず -ing（before leaving, by using）
前置詞の to：look forward to / be committed to / be used to + -ing
動名詞は主語にもなる（Reviewing the data takes time.）
動名詞の意味上の主語は所有格（their attending）

ひっかけ注意

stop to do（〜するために立ち止まる）と stop doing（〜するのをやめる）
be used to doing（〜に慣れている）と used to do（以前は〜した）
in addition to / with a view to の to も前置詞

例文で確認

We are considering expanding into Asia.	consider + -ing
Please check the room before leaving.	前置詞の後ろ → -ing
The team is committed to improving quality.	be committed to + -ing
