Katie soon fell asleep in the front seat. She's dirty, she's collapsed, she's lost 15 pounds.
(译:凯蒂很快在车前座上睡着了。她很脏,已经虚脱,瘦了15磅。)
英语中's只能是is和has的缩写,这里的三个's却应该是was的缩写, 是不是错了?
其中she was lost 的lost是形容词吧,构成主系表而15 pounds是系表结构的宾语,这样说对吗?
She's dirty, she's collapsed, she's lost 15 pounds.
= She is dirty, she has collapsed, she has lost 15 pounds.
's不可能是was. 句中的这种形式应该按照“历史性现在”理解,为了达到“生动、栩栩如生”的效果而突然改用现在时。这样读者眼前似乎就出现了一幅画面。
