问题描述:

This artist made up his mind to devote all he could_____ his English before going abroad
improing 我不太理解

to在这里是介词,devote …to sth. 而improving his English 是动名词做介词to 的宾语

devote to 将……奉献给;把……专用于
固定搭配,to后接v+ing形式

devote ....to doing sth 固定词组

devote ....to doing sth 致力于干什么
由于这个结构中的to 是介词,所以接动词时要用v-ing 形式
全句意为: 这个艺术家已下定决心在出国以前恶补英语

首先
make up one's mind to do 固定词组,下定决心做什么
all是宾语,后面省略that,he could是定语从句,修饰all
to improving 表示目的.
to improving 固定词组,devote sth to doing
