there were already a lot of other people there ,playing games or just lying in the sun

问题描述:

there were already a lot of other people there ,playing games or just lying in the sun
1.already在这里是修饰a lot 2.lying可以写成lie吗?都说下原因

1.already 不是修饰 a lot of
2.lying 不可以写成lie,这里是现在分词表示人们的状态,跟前面的 playing 一样.
整句意思是:那里已经有很多人了,正在做游戏或者只是躺着晒太阳.
