want sb doing sth ： want sb to do sth — 1116
这两个短语动词的意义基本相同，都作“要人去干”讲，只是 want sb doing sth 多少含有“嫌人多此一举”的意境色彩，所以多半用于否定结构； want sb to do sth 则仅仅表达某一次，所以不受肯否定的限制。
例如：
And I don't want them bringing their children to see me. — V. Sackvill-West. 可我不要他们再带孩子来看望我。
I want him to remain at home. It is raining. 天在下雨，我要他呆在家里。
