该句中的never to be found如何解释,是什么语法现象?
Lily's mobile phone was left in a taxi accidentally,never to be found again.
答
“莉莉的手机不小心忘在出租车里了,再也没找到。”never to be found是非谓语动词做结果状语。英语是注重形合的语言,一般一个句子中只有一个谓语动词,其它的需要使用动的成分基本都变形成了不定式,现在分词或过去分词形式。
答
不定式作结果状语,可以改成第二个句子.Lily's mobile phone was left in a taxi accidentally and it has never been found again.又如:He left home,never to be heard of again.他离开了,再也没有人听过他的消息....
