现在分词短语作非限制性定语,相当于非限制性定语从句,即相当于 which means life is beautiful and full of frustrations as well.
这里的 meaning... 或是 which means... 起解释作用,不能用不定式 to mean,因为它显然不是一个将来动作。
老师好!
有个问题麻烦您帮我解答一下。谢谢!
“Hope for the best and prepare for the worst” is a proverb, _______ life is beautiful and full of frustrations as well.
A means B meaning C to mean D meant
答案上说此题是考查非谓语作定语,因proverb与mean之间是主动关系,所以选B。我不明白为什么不选C呢?不定式作定语表未发生或经常发生,一个谚语本身就是一个普遍的经常发生的事,且C也是用的不定式的主动形式。同样都是主动,为何不用不定式呢?
可否理解为非谓语作“Hope for the best and prepare for the worst”的伴随状语呢?此处非谓语到底是作什么成分呢?
