took two hundred people finishing the work.finish不是要用原型的吗?为什么这里是加ing
问题描述：
took two hundred people finishing the work.finish不是要用原型的吗?为什么这里是加ing
答
不是用原形，而是因该用不定式，It took two hundred people to finish the work.
it代替后面的to finish the work作主语，it是形式主语，而真正的主语是to finish the work
答
"took finishing" similar to "kept going"
答
这里其实是在people后面省略了介词in的,表示take .in表示在某事情上花了.
另外还可以说
It took two hundred people to finish the work也是可以的!
