下面句子中的 as a group 作什么成分?
She actually observed chimps as a group hunting a monkey and then eating it.
下面句子中的 as a birthday present 作什么成分?
Her father bought her a dictionary as a birthday present.
谢谢!
1. She actually observed chimps as a group hunting a monkey and then eating it.
其中的介词短语 as a group 用作定语,修饰 chimps;chimps as a group 的意思是“一群黑猩猩”,与 a group of chimps 同义。句意:实际上,她曾见到过一群黑猩猩捕杀一只猴子,然后把它吃掉。
2. Her father bought her a dictionary as a birthday present.
句中的介词短语as a birthday present 可以有两种分析:一是理解为定语,a dictionary as a birthday present 的意思是“作为生日礼物的一本词典”;二是理解为方式状语,即以当作生日礼物的方式买了一本词典。但我就个人来说,便倾向于理解为定语。句意:她父亲给她买了一本词典,作为生日礼物。
