3. 不及物动词(如grow)的过去分词(如grown)不能作状语,但它的完成式(having grown)可以作状语。比如不能说:Grown in a small village, I developed a great interest in..不能说:Grown up in the United States, I had never seen a university surrounded by high, cement walls.应该说:Having grown in a small village, I developed a great interest in...
句中的分词短语作让步作状语,所以句中保留了连词though。由于developed和cultivated的意思不符,所以不正确。grown在这里表示“成长”,是不及物动词,不能用作状语,所以也不正确。只有raised正确,它是及物动词,单个分词raised就可以作状语。译文:尽管戴夫是在旧金山这样的大城市中长大,但他总是喜欢记录小城镇生活中的点点滴滴。例句可以改写成:Having grown in/ Having been raised in San Francisco, Dave had always preferred to record the plain facts of small-town life.
