be described as 后可以接句子吗

2 be described as 后可以接句子吗

近日在美国媒体看到这样一句：

What's more, I'd noticed from years of covering international development and gender issues as a writer and editor, that Black, brown and poor women had to content themselves with their bodies being described as contested geographical spaces might be.

as 后使用了一个句子，感觉这种用法不准确。不知各位老师和网友怎么看？谢谢！

describe A as B 这种结构中，通常as 被分析为介词，后接名词、动名词、过去分词、形容词等。后接形容词或过去分词时被认为省略了动名词being。但偶尔，我们也会看到as后接的是一个主谓结构，即as引导的比较分句，此时as分句为方式状语，解释describe是如何描述的。你的句子中as后接的就是方式状语从句，might be 后省略了described。下面是COCA语料库的一个例句，其中as后也是一个分句。

A place that is described as' gods own country' is because it is rustic and charming, it is possessively protected from commercialism and encroachment by a very capable and modern government, which is the reason it is a very popular attraction for tourists from all over India and the world.

所以，在describe A as B 结构中，as B 合起来通常分析为宾语补足语。如果as后接分句，则as分句为describe的方式状语从句。

describe ...as... 一般多接形容词，分词或名词。大概是句子有误，应该在as 后加上what或把might be 去掉。
