When he arrived in the city ,he went to see as many important people as he could find----dancers ,writters...这句中的find为什么

问题描述:

When he arrived in the city ,he went to see as many important people as he could find----dancers ,writters...这句中的find为什么没用过去分词形式啊?
不好意思,上面那个writers打错了

句中的as he could find为定语从句,修饰people.
定语从句的谓语是could find.could为情态动词,【情态动词+动词原形】语法规则.
