[介词]如何正确的使用介词of to for on

For

• for 经常的使用方法是告诉我们something的用途，比如说原因或者目的。

For usually tells us about the use of something, a reason or purpose.

We need new batteries for the remote control.

These drinks are for after work.

We use it for cutting grass.

Of

• Of经常是展示一种所属关系或者联系

Of usually shows a connection or belonging.

Is she a friend of yours?

This is a photo of my wife.

A glass of wine.

To

To经常是展示something的方向，向哪里移动。

To usually shows the direction of something; moving towards.

We're going to Malta next week.

Where are you going to buy your new shoes?

We ran to the end of the street.

辨析

• for和to都可以接目的，他两的区别在于，for只是表示something的目的，但是没有行动，to有一种正在向这个目的的一个趋势
• 比如说这个句子She walks ___ work every day.如果填写for的话表示他寻求一个工作，但是不可能是每天寻求工作，所以填写to表示他每天都走路去工作。
• on和for 的辨析，on business 意思是从事business,on is engaged in,for business意思是为了商业的目的for is Having (the thing mentioned) as a purpose or function.
• 例句：Susan was called out of town on business.一般是用on表示从事商业活动，而用for的话有一种诉求在里面，感情太过了（表示这个人功利心很重）on的话表示选择了一种职业。
• on和of的辨析,"Some variations on the activity" vs "Some variations of the activity". variations of means "instances of a changed thing", variations on usually means "a thing [usually a musical theme] with small modifications" on 和of的辨析还是要看具体的词的用法，对于variations这个词来说，variation on sth意思是sth的一个小改动，variation of sth 意思是一个改变了sth的一个变体，区别在于改动的大小，of的话改动是比较大的，on的话是一个小的改变。
