why don\'t you ask for help,rather than trying to一句中为什么用trying
rather to do sth.
rather than doing sth.
固定搭配.

trying ,ing 是不停的在试，动作持续着。像I am reading , I am eating ...一样，长时间的持续动作。

rather than 是个并列连词，也就是说前后的词性要一致前面help是名词，那么后面也得是名词性的词，动名词算是名词。还有就是trying还表示一直做某事，连续不断！这个句子的意思就是说：为什么你不求助，而是一直尝试（解决问题）。。。。。。
