个人认为:此题考的是主语从句.但答案里面没有从句!
不知道不定式和分词做主语有什么区别?

yiyuan05

不定式做主语时，其逻辑主语一般是泛指的。
eg.Todie for the people is a gloriuos death.(为人民而死，虽死犹荣。)
且用做主语时，不定式常常被放到句尾，前面用IT代替它。

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~no. To read of ... is to feel...
This is all about parallelism. But why "read of"? Just curious.
