解析

be interested to do sth = 很有兴趣、很乐意、很想、有意做某事(指尚未发生的动作)

如:He is interested in listening to stories.

他对听故事很感兴趣。

请看一个类似的例子:

be keen to do sth = 渴望做某事(指尚未发生的动作)

但是,以上用法并不适合所有形容词的结构“be + 形容词”都可同时接不定式或“介词 + 动名词”的。如:

(1)要表示“喜欢做某事”,英语可用be fond of doing sth,但不用be fond to do sth.

(2)要表示“忙于做某事”,英语可用be busy in doing sth,但不用be busy to do sth.

(3)要表示“厌烦做某事”,英语可用be tired of doing sth,但不用be tired to do sth.

(4)要表示“做某事做迟了”,英语可用be late in doing sth,但不用be late to do sth.

(5)要表示“做某事有经验”,英语可用be experienced at / in doing sth,但不用be experienced to do sth.

另外,有的形容词可用于两个结构,含义基本相同。如:

be fortunate in doing sth与be fortunate to do sth大致同义
