为了强调或使整个句子平衡,现在分词、过去分词和介词短语有时与所修饰的名词割裂,如:
You may ask the lady there sitting
on the chair.
The problem still remained to be
solved of how the message was to be sent to
them.
Of all the plays he wrote this
one is perhaps the best.
(=This one is perhaps the best of all the plays he wrote. of
短语放在句首起强调作用。)
One day a young man was brought to his tent with
a badly burnt arm.
(=One day a young man with a badly burnt arm was brought to
his tent. 将 with 短语放在句子后是为防止主语太长而使句子不太平衡。)
