建议不要用drive somebody to doing something的结构。
1. 查了一些词典，词典上只列出drive somebody to do something的结构，没drive somebody todoing的结构，现在在词典上也找不到有关例句。鉴于各大词典都有drive somebody todo something的有关例句，这里不再列出。
2. 经过语料库对比，譬如drove him to die / admit / commit | drove him to dying/ admitting / committing，to doing的频率为0，或者说无限接近于0。
不过drove Lincoln to pacing ... 流传甚广，大概是由于刚开始的版本就是这样，可能是受drive somebody tosomething的影响，作者用了pacing做动名词来代替something。如果把Lincoln换成别的词，就找不到什么例子了，所以建议不要模仿。
