The Justice Department showcased just how central he was when it made the strategic decision to focus at the trial on his actions—and to make his video deposition and e-mails the public relations centerpiece of its case.

请问：

(1) 状语从句when it made the strategic decision…的修饰对象是how central he was当中的动作was还是谓语showcased呢？（个人倾向于单纯从语法上就可以判断出该状语从句修饰的是was。）

【答】时间状语从句when it made the strategic decision to focus at the trial on his actions，修饰主句谓语动词showcased。

注意：人称代词需要跟名词相对应。it 指代The Justice Department，说明：决定是司法部做出的，不是he 做出的。自然修饰The Justice Department showcased。

(2) 不定式to focus at the trial on his actions在句子中充当的成份是什么词类呢？(或相当于名词性从句、定语从句还是状语从句？)

【答】句子成分不能称为“词类”。这里，是不定式 to focus at the trial on his actions 作定语，修饰decision，它们之间存在“同位关系”。

(3) I made him wash the car. 句子中的wash为原形动词，连同the car一起作宾语补语，那么这个宾语补语是名词还是形容词呢？(个人倾向是形容词)

【答】应该这样表述：wash the car是不定式作“宾语补足语”，不要再分解了，哪来的名词、形容词呢？当然，能作make宾补的可以是：不定式、过去分词、名词、形容词、介词短语等。

建议：把你那些“倾向于”摈弃吧。选择正确的分析方法和答案。
