1 Prepositions with ing-form
Употребление предлогов с "инг"-формой1) Некоторые предлоги могут употребляться перед "инг"-формой (см.

К таким предлогам (и союзам) относятся: after, before, besides, by, in, in spite of, instead of, on, through, until, with, without. Чаще всего характер отношения легко восстановить по значению предлога.greater use of outer space for military purposes, China also seeks to develop the means to destroy opposing satellites — Помимо более широкого использования космичесвого пространства для военных целей, Китай также стремится разработать средства поражения враждебных спутников.2) Предлог by указывает на то, что действие, выраженное герундием, является средством осуществления основного действия.He only survived by eating grass. — Он выжил только за счет того, что питался травой.

3 Prepositions in final position
Перенос предлога в конец предложения.Несмотря на то, что, согласно традиционной английской грамматике, предлог всегда находится перед словом, к которому относится, в современном языке довольно часто предлоги перемещаются в абсолютный конец предложения. Это перемещение происходит в следующих случаях:1) В определительных придаточных предложениях (см. Relative pronouns, 4) б)):Good heavens! it was Dorian Gray's own face that he was looking at! — О Боже! Лицо, на которое он смотрел, было его собственное лицо, лицо Дориана Грея!
2) В специальном вопросе (см. Wh - question, 1) б)):My little lady, where are you going to? — Куда вы идете, моя юная леди?
3) В придаточных предложениях, введенных вопросительным словом (Wh - clause):Quickly, he forces the lock with a penknife, and turns over the papers until he finds what he is looking for. — Он быстро вскрывает замок перочинным ножом, перерывает бумаги и находит то, что искал.
4) В инфинитивном обороте, определяющем существительное или прилагательное (см. To-infinitive after adjective or noun, 4):She was too ill to argue with, and, besides, sick people take queer fancies. — Она была слишком нездорова, чтобы с ней спорить, и потом, у больных бывают странные причуды.

18 Usage note : which
In questionsWhen which is used as a pronoun in questions it is translated by lequel, laquelle, lesquels or lesquelles according to the gender and number of the noun it is referring to:there are three peaches, which do you want?= il y a trois pêches, laquelle veux-tu?‘Lucy’s borrowed three of your books’ ‘which did she take?’= ‘Lucy t’a emprunté trois livres’ ‘lesquels a-t-elle pris?’The exception to this is when which is followed by a superlative adjective, when the translation is quel, quelle, quels or quelles:which is the biggest (apple)?= quelle est la plus grande?which are the least expensive (books)?= quels sont les moins chers?In relative clauses as subject or objectthe book which is on the table= le livre qui est sur la tablethe books which are on the table= les livres qui sont sur la tablethe book which Tina is reading= le livre que lit TinaNote the inversion of subject and verb ; this is the case where the subject is a noun but not where the subject is a pronoun:the book which I am reading= le livre que je lisIn compound tenses such as the present perfect and past perfect, the past participle agrees in gender and number with the noun que is referring to:the books which I gave you= les livres que je t’ai donnésthe dresses which she bought yesterday= les robes qu’elle a achetées hierIn relative clauses after a prepositionHere the translation is lequel, laquelle, lesquels or lesquelles according to the gender and number of the noun referred to:the road by which we came or the road which we came by= la route par laquelle nous sommes venusthe expressions for which we have translations= les expressions pour lesquelles nous avons une traductionRemember that if the preposition would normally be translated by à in French (to, at etc.), the preposition + which is translated by auquel, à laquelle, auxquels or auxquelles:the addresses to which we sent letters= les adresses auxquelles nous avons envoyé des lettresWith prepositions normally translated by de (of, from etc.) the translation of the preposition which becomes dont:a blue book, the title of which I’ve forgotten= un livre bleu dont j’ai oublié le titreHowever, if de is part of a prepositional group, as for example in the case of près de meaning near, the translation becomes duquel, de laquelle, desquels or desquelles:the village near which they live= le village près duquel ils habitentthe houses near which she was waiting= les maisons près desquelles elle attendaita hill at the top of which there is a house= une colline au sommet de laquelle il y a une maisonAs a determinerIn questionsWhen which is used as a determiner in questions it is translated by quel, quelle, quels or quelles according to the gender and number of the noun that follows:which car is yours?= quelle voiture est la vôtre?which books did he borrow?= quels livres a-t-il empruntés?Note that in the second example the object precedes the verb so that the past participle agrees in gender and number with the object. -
