indeed, i am highly indebted to both of you.you guys have taught me this concept very clearly.now i am posting following sentences i have made after understanding it.mark true and false.
1.X is famous for throwing his books into the river.
2.he is famous for being rude .
i suppose first sentence might be wrong.
secondly,we can use ing form as an object of every preposition.
Danial as regards the understanding of gerund is concerned, you have got the concept as both of these ING forms are gerunds in your sentences...
yes we can use it as an object of the preposition...
dear i think if we say that " He is famous for his rude behavior" would be more appropriate in your second sentence...well that's not the issue right now...Yes you got the concept of Gerund...stay blessed
Wish you luck in all your endeavors...

@bilal bhai

just mark these sentences as true or false for my satisfaction.

1.he is known for singing songs..as singing does the work of gerund here.

2.she has gone abroad for getting education.

3.her remarks on securing good position in the exam are worth noting .

4.he is famous for teaching English to the students..

brother all are Gerunds, as i told you earlier that prepositions are always followed by noun or adverbs, sometimes adjective may also be possible but never a verb so all are gerunds...your gerund nouns, all of them, have been predicatively used here...it doesn't mean that gerunds are always to be found in the predicate, lest you should confuse and limit it to predicative use only; have a look at following sentences:

singing songs is his hobby.
getting education abroad is his prime wish.
securing good position in the exam earned him great fame.
Teaching English has earned him great repute among all the teachers.

This is the attributive use of Gerund, so now you know the usage of Gerund in both positions, concept of Gerund is already clear, i assure you that you got the concept brother.....
Regards
