While the weather is fine,I must get down ( )the house.A repainting B to repaint C to repainting

问题描述:

While the weather is fine,I must get down ( )the house.A repainting B to repaint C to repainting
问为什么选C,而不选B
不是get down to do 表示开始着手做。

get down to do 和get down to doing都有开始着手干某事的意思,但是前者表示的过程通常比较缓慢,(比如养成一个习惯啦,爱啊,恨啊的)且用在较正式的场合,可以表示那种经过允许才能做的事情,而后者的用法就较普通,表示一个普通动作的开始~
