Anne was left anxiously wondering which brother, but later that day she heard from Louisa Musgrove that it was in fact, Captain Wentworth.---来源书籍《劝导》
上面的句子我不太明白wondering的用法,这个的wondering 是left的伴随状语吗?这是的left是leave的过去式吗?是表示离开的意思吗?如果是离开的意思的话,为什么是was left 这个被动语态呢?
谢谢各位老师的解答!谢谢!
Anne was left anxiously wondering which brother, but later that day she heard from Louisa Musgrove that it was in fact, Captain Wentworth.
leave 除了表示“离开”之外,它还有更多的含义和用法。
leave 还表示 “使…处于…状态”。其后可接以名词、形容词、动词不定式、现在分词、过去分词或动词原形充当补足语的复合宾语。其中就有:leave sb. doing sth.
网友把 leave sb. doing sth. 变为被动语态,就是上面句子的结构。
