zyh79从G域转贴的一个帖子上提到：
41. require sb. to do sth. ，require of sb. that，require that…，n + required of sb. to do sth. T181，require of sb. to do 以及 require sb. that为错误的表达
1.
嗯，关于require的用法我想说两句
首先在OG109题，提到了require of sb. that的用法
109. Legislation in the Canadian province of Ontario
requires of both public and private employers that pay be the same for jobs historically held by women as for jobs requiring comparable skill that are usually held by men.
(A) that pay be the same for jobs historically held by women as for jobs requiring comparable skill that are
(B) that pay for jobs historically held by women should be the same as for a job requiring comparable skills
(C) to pay the same in jobs historically held by women as in jobs of comparable skill that are
(D) to pay the same regardless of whether a job was historically held by women or is one demanding comparable skills
(E) to pay as much for jobs historically held by women as for a job demanding comparable skills
OG的解释是Choices C, D, and E produce the ungrammatical construction “requires of... employers to pay”, in which “of” makes the phrase incorrect.
在OG181题，又涉及到require of的用法
181. Because of the enormous research and development expenditures required to survive in the electronics industry, an industry marked by rapid innovation and volatile demand, such firms tend to be very large.
(A) to survive
(B) of firms to survive
(C) for surviving
(D) for survival
(E) for firms' survival
此题正确的选项是B。
乍一看，这儿用的是require of sb. to do sth.结构，那么是不是说OG在自相矛盾呢？我认为不是的
在181题中，动词不定式to survive实际上是修饰从句中的主语the enormous research and development expenditures的，而分词短语required of firms也是修饰主语的，也就是说to survive和required of firms是两个并列的修饰成分（某种意义上说，把两者的位置调换也是说的通的，当然我不是说真的换）
而在109题中，require是句子的谓语
其实仔细比较一下，require在两个句子中起的作用是绝对不同的
我记的zyh79从G域转贴的一个帖子上也讲到这个问题，一会儿我找找
不能说：动作优先名词。至少在with引导的介词短语中是这样。
with 的意思，一般是补充说明发生的某件事情，或某种事物具有的特性，或某件事情的附带目的之类的。怎么说呢？
除你讲的那两例，比如：某人干了什么事情，with 什么什么。后面是顺带的目的的。
OG 中讲到with的用法的，包括未划线部分，我记得大概是5-6处。兄弟你在感觉感觉。
这里咱们讨论的只是with的一个常见用法。
