一生感動，這個生可以當作名詞，可以解釋成若一輩子保持容易感動的心靈，那麼一輩子就都是如同青春年少般的美好。
或者，這個「生」可以當作動詞，只要何時我們「產生」了感動之心，那個時候就「產生」如青春般的光芒。
不過在忙碌的日子裡，在艱難的生命中，如何保有最當初的那一點感動，如何讓愛與善意經由我們的手源源不絕地傳佈出去，這種「初心」的維繫，的確不太容易...全文請見聯結

[學生常犯的寫作錯誤 2] 所有格加動名詞 (Using Possessives with Gerunds)
Many people believe that students wearing uniform is beneficial.
上面的句子有錯誤嗎?
在檢查錯誤之前，先來分析此句:
Many people 是主詞，believe 是及物動詞，that students wearing uniforms is beneficial 是名詞子句當受詞。
That 是連詞，連接名詞子句但可省略。Students wearing uniform 是動名詞片語當名詞子句的主詞，is 是連綴動詞，beneficial 是形容詞 (主詞補語)。
======================
一切看起來正常，但是名詞子句的主詞 students wearing uniforms (學生穿制服) 有出現兩個問題。
第一，有些人會把 wearing uniforms 誤認為現在分詞/形容詞片語 (students who wear uniforms -> students wearing uniforms)。
但是這裡 students wearing uniforms 應該是當作動名詞片語。
---------------------------------------
第二，students 是名詞，但 wearing uniform 是動名詞，所以文法「正確」的寫法應該是 students’ (所有格) wearing uniforms。
但很沒人會寫 students’ wearing uniforms/student’s wearing of uniforms，因為過度強調 "學生的" 而作者希望把重點放在穿著制服上，也有一些母語者會覺得這樣子的寫法拖泥帶水並且不自然，可能會造成混: http://www.getitwriteonline.com/archive/022205posscasegerunds.htm
======================
Many people believe that wearing uniforms is beneficial for all students. [O]
Many people believe that school uniforms are beneficial for all students. [O]
Many people believe that all students should wear uniforms because of the numerous benefits. [O]
這三句的重點在於名詞子句的主詞清楚，不會造成任何的混淆而降低了閱讀的流暢度。
---------------------------------------
其他例句:
He resents Mary being promoted. [X] 不正確，除非 being promoted 是形容詞片語。
He resents Mary’s being promoted. [O] 文法正確，但不常見。
He resents Mary’s promotion. [O] 最自然的!
---------------------------------------
Thank you for you listening. [X] 不正確。
Thank you for your listening. [O] 文法正確，但不常見 (unidiomatic)!
Thank you for listening. [O] 最自然的!
---------------------------------------
I appreciate he participating in the event. [X] 不正確。
I appreciate him participating in the event. [X] 文法不正確，算是非正式用法。
I appreciate his participation in the event. [O] 最自然的!

[文法Q&A]
Q: by和until有什麼區別?
A:
1. by表示在某特定的時間之前或不遲於某特定的時間，意為“最遲在;不遲於”或“在……之前”等。如：
①I will finish my task by nine. 我將在九點鐘前完成任務。
②The plane takes off at 10:00, so you must try to be at the airport by 9:30. 飛機在十點鐘起飛，所以你必須在九點半趕到機場。
2. until用在肯定句，謂語動詞通常是延續性動詞，如stand, stay, talk, wait等，表示主句動作終止的時間。如:
③I waited until he came back. 我一直等到他回來。
④The war lasted until 1945. 戰爭持續到1945年。
如果用在否定句，謂語動詞通常是瞬間性動詞，如open, start, leave, arrive, finish, stop等，強調主句動作開始的時間。如:
⑤I didn't leave the boy until his mother turned up.直到這孩子的母親來，我才離開。
⑥The noise of the street didn't stop until it was midnight. 街上的噪音直到半夜才停止。
