副词用作介词宾语和后置定语的用法
一、某些副词用作介词宾语
副词在句子中主要用作状语,但是英语中某些表示时间或地点的副词以及某些与介词同形的副词,有时也可用作某些介词的宾语。如:
Do you mind my opening the window? It's a bit hot in here. 你介意我打开窗户吗?这里有点热。
Take your time—it's just a short distance from here to the restaurant. 别急,从这儿到那家餐馆只是很短的距离。
二、某些副词用作后置定语
副词虽然不用于名词前作定语,但某些表示时间或地点的副词可用于名词后作定语。如:
The lady downstairs has asked lira to be quiet after nine o'clock. 楼下那位女士要求我们9点以后保持安静。(downstairs修饰the lady)
He wanted the best for his children—good schools, a nice house and trips abroad. 他想让自己的孩子享受到最好的一切——上好学校,住漂亮房子,还去国外旅行。(abroad修饰trips)
