老师好。我今天看到一个句子。
A tiger cant be tamed unless caught very young.
我可以认为 unless 后面的 caught 是因为省略了it is,但是 后面very young我就想不通了。应该不能还原成 unless it is caught when it is very young 吧 ?那岂不是相当于连when也省略了? 谢谢老师!
A tiger cant be tamed unless caught very young.
= A tiger cant be tamed unless it is caught very young.
在 it is caught very young中,very young为形容词作状语。
例如: He died young. = when he died he was young.
We caught the tiger very young. = When we caught the tiger, it was very young.
这种结构通常分析为形容词作状语。
