Disregarding the Rat, he proceeded to play upon the inexperienced Mole as on a harp.
这句话摘自《柳林风声》,句中的as on a harp是个比较分句吧,省略了主语he和谓语动词play。可这里为啥要用harp,harp不是风琴的意思吗?还请专家老师帮忙解答。
Disregarding the Rat【让步状语】// , he 【主语】// proceeded【谓语动词】// to play upon the inexperienced Mole as on a harp【宾语】// .
=Although he disregarded the Rat, he proceeded to play upon the inexperienced Mole as on a harp.
备注:disregarding the rat为现在分词短语作让步状语,其逻辑主语为后面句子主语he
充当句子宾语的不定式短语的语法结构分析如下供网友参考
to play upon 【不定式】// the inexperienced Mole【宾语】// as (he played省略)on a harp【方式状语】//
备注(1):as on a harp 为方式状语修饰不定式短语to play upon the inexperienced Mole
备注(2):as引导省略性方式状语从句,as相当于the way that 或者the way in which
to play upon the inexperienced Mole as (he play省略)on a harp.
=to play upon the inexperienced Mole in the way that he played on a harp.
Disregarding the Rat, he proceeded to play upon the inexperienced Mole as on a harp.
参考译文:虽然他不理睬老鼠,但他仍然接着像拨弄竖琴那样拨弄着那只没有经验的鼹鼠。
