解析:在形式上,位于系动词(be , become , appear , seem , look , sound , feel , get , smell 等词)后的成分就是表语。
表语是用来说明主语的身份、性质、品性、特征和状态的。表语可以是一个单词,可以是一个短语,也可以是一个句子,总之,表语有多种形式。从含义上讲,表语是回答主语“是什么”或“怎么样”的语法成分。 表语常位于连系动词(am , is , are , was , were , become , get , turn , go , look , smell , sound , taste , feel , grow , appear , keep)之后。 即:be动词;四个“变得”: become , get , turn , go ;感官动词:look , smell , sound , taste , feel ;及grow , appear , keep等。
例: Africa is a big continent. 非洲是个大洲。(a big continent跟在is后,所以,表语是:a big continent) Who's your best friend? 你最好的朋友是谁?(your best friend跟在is后,所以,表语是:your best friend) I feel much better today. 我今天感觉好多了。 (much better跟在feel后,所以,表语是:much better)
表语,属于主语补足语,语法名词,是指说明主语的身份、性质、品性、特征和状态的词或从句,表语常由名词、形容词、介词短语、动名词、不定式、副词来充当,它常位于系动词之后。下面跟着我来看看英语形容词做表语的.用法吧!希望对你有所帮助。 1)很多以a开头的形容词,如asleep, afraid, awake, alone, aware, alive, ablaze, alike等, 【例如】 He was so tired that he soon fell asleep.
