题目内容：

make a living后面加什么介词?
make a living后面加的是什么介词?我觉得一般而言是by和on,但今天在字典上发现也有用with,as和of的.我用的是上海辞书出版社的《英汉大词典》第二版,字典本身一概不会有错.但make a living后到底应该加什么?
字典上的例句：
He makes a living by his pen.(他靠卖文为生)
……to make a living on his own.
make a living of teaching
make a living by teaching
You can always make a living with a skill.
He makes a living as a stand-up comic.
另外,还看见别的词典上有什么也不加的
he makes a living buying old cars and souping them up.
总之,make a living 后面到底加什么介词?
”字典本身一概不会有错“改为”字典本身应该不会有错“

优质解答

make a living +by 只有这一个介词.
通过.谋生.
to make a living on his own.
on his own,是个单独词组,要分开读.
on one's own
adv.独立地；独自地；主动地
其它同理,都是你断句,错了位置.
如：make a living by teaching 通过教书谋生.
make （a living of teaching）
以教书作为生活,
make 与后面,也是断开的.
