2 是否应用被动语态做后置定语的疑问

我看一篇有关手机安全使用文章中一句话:

Despite monitoring apps and restrictions placed on phone, parents are finding it hard to keep up with their kids.

我查了一下词典中placed没有形容词性,所以placed这里不是形容词做restrictions的后置定语,那这里是否应写成…restrictions are placed…,表达“被设置在手机上的功能限制”,才更合适?

Despite monitoring apps and restrictionsthat are省略了 placed on phone, parents are finding it hard to keep up with their kids.

解答:despite为介词(尽管,虽然;),与后面的名词短语monitoring apps and restrictions placed on phone构成介词短语,作让步状语,placed on phone(被安放在手机上的)为过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰限定前面的名词monitoring apples and restrictions,相当于定语从句that are placed on phone=被安放在手机上的

以上句子可以改为下面的定语从句

Despite monitoring apps and restrictions  that are placed on phone, parents are finding it hard to keep up with their kids.

备注:红色字体是介词despite 的宾语,蓝色字体that are placed on phone是红色字体monitoring apps and restrictions的后置定语。

这里的 placed 应该是被动语态作后置定语,因此这么写是符合语法的。另外,despite 后面只能加名词,不能加从句,所以这样改不合适。
