Scientists will have to come up with new methods of increasing the world's food supply.

单词scientists为什麽不加the? 单词increasing为什麽不加the? 单词new methods为什麽不加the?

Scientists will have to come up with new methods of increasing the world's food supply.他们说的对啊,Sientist是泛指科学家而不是特指具体哪一个或哪些科学家同样,methods也不是特指,是不定的,methods和increasing不是从属关系,也不是特指当然也不用加喽!建议朋友平时不要只是做题目,学语言最重要还是语感的形成,多读课文效果是很好很好的!

The word "Scientists" is general statement，so don't use "the".But it should be added "the" when is used in specific.Such as "The scientist Newton", in this sentence ,you must use "the",because Newton is unique."incresing" is a gerund, so it isn't added with "the".

不加the是因为是泛指,没有特指是哪些科学家,哪些方法. of此处是介词,后面动词加ing.
