另外一種是含 to + N 的 故定型式片語, 如:1. come to an end 結束eg. The meeting finally came to an end at ten o'clock in the evening. 2. go to town 全心投入，徹底投入3. stands to reason 合乎道理

Answer 2

只要 to 當介系詞用時，後面就要接名詞，我把網路及文法書上找到的片語整理如下(當然還有很多沒列出來的)：

動詞與介系詞 to
look forward to, object to, devote oneself to, take to, have an(no) objection to, compare to, correspond to, relate to, refer to, accustom oneself to, commit oneself to, face up to, resign oneself to, resort to, sink to, belong to, pay attention to, give rise to, owe to

形容詞與介系詞 to
be used to, be opposed to, be devoted to, be friendly to, be limited to, be married to, be related to, be similar to, be superior to, be accustomed to, be addicted to, be reduced to, be equal to

其他常見以 to 結尾的片語
in addition to, in regard to, in relation to, with a view to, regard to, due to, thanks to, owing to, according to

由於片語數目眾多, 某些片語後面接人或物, 不常接動作, 如"belong to +人", 不易與"不定詞" to混淆, 所以只舉一些常見且容易和不定詞混淆的片語造例句:

1. be used to (習慣於):
I have been used to getting up early.
2. look forward to (盼望):
We all look forward to visiting you.
3. object to (反對):

He took to studying English five years ago.
6. have objections to (反對):
He had moral objections to killing animals for food.
7. resort to (訴諸...的方法):

8. be addicted to (沈溺於):

9. commit to (承擔義務):
The banks have committed themselves to boosting profits by slashing costs.
10. with a view to (打算):
We bought the house with a view to retiring there.
11. resign to (順從,認命):

12. be reduced to (淪落):
