2018年6月4级阅读中的一个句子:
As for Venetians, they're beyond frustrated and hoping for a solution soon.
这里的beyond 如果做副词解释只有两个意思besides和farther(空间和时间上更远),都不合适。那就只剩下介词词性了。请问beyond frustrated这里的beyond 是介词吗?
我觉得可以认为形容词前面省略了 being:
As for Venetians, they're beyond being frustrated and hoping for a solution soon.
最典型的类似用法有 far from (being)…。如:
Your account is far from (being) true. 你所说远非事实。
He was far from (being) friendly. 他一点儿也不友好。
Your work is far from (being) satisfactory. 你的工作远不令人满意。
