例句1. On behalf of the department I would like to thank you all.
我谨代表全系感谢大家
例句2. Mr Knight cannot be here, so his wife will accept the prize on his behalf.
奈特先生不能来,因此由他的夫人代他领奖。
第一句On behalf of the department是单独作状语成分吗?第二句on his behalf是作状语修饰accept吗?
On behalf of the department 和 on his behald 两个介词短语,是完全一样的作用,不存在单独作状语的问题。它们都是修饰句子的谓语动词,是“方式状语”,都是主语去代表。
一般而言,“代表”的对象若是个名词,则用on behalf of + 名词。如果是代词,则用物主代词作定语,放在behalf 之前,不用of。
其实,这个用法跟普遍,跟 with the help of my teacher 和 with his help 是一个类型。
