復(fù)雜的非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的理解 例280

例280　The bodies playing major professional sports have changed dramatically over the years, and managers have been more than willing to adjust team uniforms to fit the growing numbers of bigger, longer frames.

【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】這句話是個(gè)并列句，由and連接。前半句的主語(yǔ)是The bodies，分詞短語(yǔ)playing major professional sport是對(duì)主語(yǔ)的修飾，have changed是謂語(yǔ)，dramatically over the years是狀語(yǔ)。后半句中，managers是主語(yǔ)，have been是謂語(yǔ)。

【亮點(diǎn)回放】此句話的亮點(diǎn)在于并列句的超級(jí)使用，其中第一個(gè)并列句復(fù)雜在有分詞定語(yǔ)，第二個(gè)并列句復(fù)雜在有很長(zhǎng)的賓語(yǔ)，是個(gè)of結(jié)構(gòu)。
