Our vicar is always raising money for one cause or another, but he has never managed to get enough money to have the church clock repaired.
The big clock which used to strike the hours day and night was damaged many years ago and has been silent ever since.
One night, however, our vicar work up with a start: the clock was striking the hours!
Looking at his watch, he saw that it was one o'clock, but the bell struck thirteen times before it stopped.
Armed with a torch, the vicar went up into the clock tower to see what was going on.
... 'You certainly did give me a surprise!' said the vicar. 'You've probably woken up everyone in the village as well. Still, I'm glad the bell is working again.'
书上说looking at his watch 是现在分词短语,作时间状语;armed with torch 是过去分词短语,作方式状语。
但是我可以认为looking at...是伴随状语吗?armed with torch 应该是形容词作伴随状语吧?问题是这里的armed with 究竟是过去分词还是形容词呢?
but the bell struck thirteen times before it stopped. 这里的before从句可以使用过去完成时即 but the bell struck thirteen times before it had stopped.吗?
奇怪的是,明明黑体字however和still都是副词,书上却说是并列连词和连词?
新概念英语是你学习英语的精读教材,你应该做的是仔细体会句子结构,然后模仿写作。不要随意改动句子。文章你见的多了,自然就会知道before从句后是否可以交替使用一般过去时和过去完成时。你凭什么要自己改动句子呢?这是很坏的学习习惯。
分词作状语具体是什么状语,是根据上下文语境分析出来的。如果学习者不擅长逻辑分析,可以不分析分词是什么状语,粗略的理解为状语就行了。
doing或done的形式如果按照分词分析成立,就首选按照分词分析,不要纠结是否是形容词。只有按照分词分析不通的时候,才求助于形容词。
however和still都不是连词。你知道就可以了。
