In fact, the most successful way to change is not suddenly, but over a period of time.
此句出自2020版高中英语人教版,选择性必修三第二单元(P15)。竟然是中学课本,那就应该不存在不规范的问题。
我知道表示方位时间的副词如out, up, down, in, off, on, in等可以充当表语,但suddenly肯定不在其中。
这种用法是由上下文决定的,脱离上下文不行,实际上 你可以看作是一种为了简练而采取的一种省略形式, 多见于口语体。可以这样理解:In fact, the most successful way to change is not (to change) suddenly, but (to change) over a period of time. 薄冰高级语法曾提到副词作表语的用法,如:The meeting was yesterday. 你可以理解为The meeting was (held) yesterday.

以上的 is not 可以理解为 doesn't happen。
