1)CNN: 《COVID-19 Puts Hamper On Fishermen; Boater Rescued By Shipping Boat》
Prior to COVID it was estimated somewhere around 90 percent of seafood was being consumed in restaurants and being exported.
2)break away: This is when something is being held in place, tied in place, it gets separated.
请教老师:以上2句中出现的being:
was being consumed in restaurants and being exported 和is being held in place, tied in place都是表示“正在进行”吗?去掉being的话,是否就变成了一般现在时?
顺便问一下,原句2)如上,是否应该将“, it”改为“. It” ? 即...tied in place. It gets separated. ?
你的二个句子中的was being consumed 和 is being held 分别为过去进行时和现在进行时的被动语态形式。第一句中的过去进行时表示在一段时间内反复发生的事件,第二句中表示正在发生的一次性事件。你提问不能单独提问being, 这个提问本身就是错误的。你应该问 was being done, is being done是什么动词形式。第二句是词典解释break away这个短语动词的语义。比如,你正在把一只猫往盒子里放的时候,猫挣脱了。你就可以说,The cat broke away.
第二句的This is 改为 This means 为宜。
