老师您好,谢谢您查看我的问题。
It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.
这是出自《哈里·波特与魔法石》原著的句子,我的疑惑是:
1. but 在这里连接的是两个不定式主语是吗? to stand up to our enemies 和 to stand up to our friends.
2. 后半句是省略了 it takes 吗?即如果补充完整,我可以写成 But it takes as much to stand up to our friends.
3. as much 在原句中,是作状语,意思为“同样地”(=the same),修饰谓语动词 takes 吗?
but后为并列分句的省略,你可以根据前一个分句补充完整。
but just as much to stand up to our friends = but it takes just as much to stand up to our friends.
二个并列分句中,it都是形式宾语,不定式为真正宾语。just as much中的much在此为不定式代词,指代不可数名词bravery,作takes的宾语,不是状语。你也可以理解just as much后省略了bravery。
