英语句子出现两个动词
Armed with a torch,the vicar went up into the clock tower to see what was going on.这里的armed与went.怎么会有两个动词呢

armed with a torch 表示一种方式状语 ,“握着火炬”,
went up into the clock tower “登到钟楼里”。这是主句。

armed with a torch "握着火炬",表示一种方式状语,是属于状语从句里的,表示主语"the vicar"所处的一种状态.
而 went up into the clock tower “登到钟楼里”,这是主句里,表示主语的一个动作。
整句来看,就是主语在握着火炬的状态下,往上走进了钟塔,这样比较好理解了吧..?

本句中,“armed with a torch”作句中定语从句的省略形式,修饰“the vicar”,本句的完整形式可写成“The vicar who was armed with a torch went up into the clock tower to see what was going on.”
其中“be armed with sth”表示“拿着/带着...”;而went则为本句中的谓语动词,用过去式表示此动作发生在过去,因此本句中含有“armed”和“went”.
