Question

英语高手！！！！ 请帮我解决下问题吧！！！！ 在线跪求中啊！！！！ 是关于英语语法的问题！

It maybe they wanted to live as near as possible to their
ancestors‘ graves
请问 这里用了live as near as possible to ,,, 的句形
可我没听说过 有 near to ,,, 句形 请帮我解释下 谢谢了！

Answer 1

英语中很多时候没有所谓的固定句型，能跟什么不能跟什么，所以楼主的问题和楼下的回答基本偏离重心。
live 不及物，后跟near作状语，句子完整，要再跟结构也需是状语——副词或者介宾短语，选用哪个介词，就要看具体含义了，比方说，It maybe they wanted to live as near as possible with their friends. 此时主要受到动词 和后面名词的限制，而非另一个状语near，所以near 与to their ancestors‘ graves无关，你将near换成far也是一样的。

near to ,,, 接近于，靠近
有这样的短语
1....附近;靠近
[例]Go and sit nearer(to)the fire.
2.接近；临近
[例]I'll think about it nearer(to)the time.
3.(用于数词前)大约,上下,接近
4.(质量、大小等）相仿，接近
[例]This colour is nearest(to)the original.
5.接近于（某种状态）；濒临；快要
[例]She was near to tears(=almost crying).
We came near to being killed.

Answer 3

near有时要加to，有时不需要，比如当表示空间上的“接近”时,用near与near to都行 ，也就是near to表示空间上的“接近时”to可以省略，而在表非空间上的“邻近”时，to则不能省略， 比如：she was near to tears.则不能省略

Answer 4

这里near to 是指接在their ancestors' graves,

比如:my home is quite near to the office. 我家离办公室很近. 相同的用法.

个人意见,仅供参考.
