implicate和implicate in
As roadways choke on traffic, researchers suspect that the tailpipe exhausted from cars and trucks--especially tiny carbon particles already implicated heart disease, cancer and respiratory ailments--may also injure brain cells key to learning and memory.
请问: 为什么implicated后面要加in？它不是及物动词吗？
最佳答案 2020-08-28 22:30
implicated在此为过去分词作定语，表示被动意义，修饰tiny carbon particles ，即逻辑上tiny carbon particles是implicate的宾语。后面的in 介词短语是implicated的状语。注意这种用法：
He is implicated in the scheme to defraud the government.
He was deeply implicated in the plot.
他与该阴谋牵涉颇深。
already implicated in heart disease, cancer and respiratory ailments
= which are already implicated in heart disease, cancer and respiratory ailments
