這是個很多英文檢定考試都愛出的陷阱題
因為很多人直覺認為在 look forward to 這個片語的 to 後面應該接原形動詞
偏偏這個片語的 to 是當作單純的介系詞,而不是不定詞 to V 的用法
所以 look forward to 後面只能接名詞
如果遇到要接動詞時就要把它加 ing 變成動名詞才行
比如:

We are looking forward to the trip.
(我們很期待這趟旅行。)
The little boy is looking forward to his birthday party.
(小男孩很期待他的生日派對。)
以上兩個句子都是在後面接名詞
但標題中的句子則該改為 I look forward to seeing you again. 才對

又例如:

She is not looking forward to spending Chinese New Year with her family.
(她並不期待和家人一起過年。)
Neal doesn’t look forward to experiencing something like that again.
(尼爾並不期待再次經歷那樣的事。)
至於為什麼這些句子有些是用現在進行式,有些又用現在簡單式?
這還是要回歸到這兩種時態的正確用法
如果用現在簡單式,那就表示是常態,每天或一貫都是這樣
所以跟人家說 I look forward to seeing you again. 就是指只要沒見到你的時候都會很想再見到你
通常是用在不知道下次何時會見面的情況
但若是已知老友要來訪,或已知何時會和此人見面
那就會說 I’m looking forward to seeing you again.
表示有別於常態,是針對這次的見面,目前這一陣子很
