2 infuriating 和as介词短语的问题

1. Wasted time is a drag on Americans’ economic and private lives, not to mention infuriating.

问题1:请教曹老师,这个not to mention infuriating 在整句话中是作啥成分的呢?mention是一个动词,为啥后面跟了一个形容词infuriating呢?

2. Chewing gum, once bought primarily by adolescent boys, is now featured in commercials as a breathe freshener and teeth cleanser for use after a meal.

问题2:老师,这句话来自于考研英语,书中把as介词短语分析为chewing gum的补足语,我感觉as介词短语应该为方式状语才对。

3. There are fundamental public health problems, like dirty hands instead of a soap habit, that remains killers only because we can’t figure out how to change people’s habits.

问题3:曹老师,书上把like介词短语分析为主语public health problems 的同位语,我感觉不妥。因为主语为名词,同位语应该也是名词才对

1 not to mention已经成为习语,有的词典把它标注为副词。所以有时可以后接形容词。以下是二个词典例句:

It was both deliberate and malicious, not to mention clever.

He is rich and clever, not to mention handsome.

2 as介词短语为主语补足语。feature A as B. as B在主动语态为宾补,被动结构中则为主补。

3 like介词短语应该是补充语,对主语作补充说明。
