Lately, though, water is scarce on Almeida's modest farm in Caconde, a town in one of Sao Paulo state's key growing regions. He can't get his coffee to grow the way it should.
这句话的to grow 是无及物动词吧,后面the way充当什么句子成分?
Lately, though, water is scarce on Almeida's modest farm in Caconde, a town in one of Sao Paulo state's key growing regions. He can't get his coffee to grow the way it should.
是的,to grow 是不及物动词,它后面的 the way it should 是状语从句(表方式)。这里的 the way 起连词作用,相当于 as。
He can't get his coffee to grow the way it should.
字面意思:他无法让他的咖啡按它应该生成的样子去生长。
也可以是:他无法让他的咖啡长成它应该长成的样子。
也可以理解为前面省略了介词 in:
He can't get his coffee to grow in the way it should.
