一. 状语
是修饰动词,形容词,副词等句子成分。状语表示地点,时间,原因,目的,结果,条件,让步,程度,方式,伴随情况等。做状语的有副词,名词,介词短语,分词及其短语,动词不定式及其短语,状语从句等。下面依次举例:
These products are selling quickly.
He is knee deep in snow.
The best fish swim near the bottom.
She sat there doing nothing.
We’ll send a car over to fetch you.
She was slow to make up her mind.
Strike while the iron is hot.
There is no such a word in English so far as I know.
七.宾语补足语和主语补足语
英语中有些及物动词,除了要有宾语外,还要加上宾语补足语,才能使句子意思完整。如果上述结构变为被动语态句,原宾语变为主语,原宾语补足语相应的变为主语补足语。可以担当补语的有名词,形容词,介词短语,动词不定式,分词等。下面依次举例:
They elected me captain of the team.
He made me ashamed of myself.
We found everything there in good order.
I should advise you not to miss the chance.
I could feel my heart beating fast.
The price is expected to rise in the near future.
Some goods are left unsold.
She was elected director of public relations.
