说明
起补充说明的作用
核心问题
The visiting Minister expressed his satisfaction with the talks, ____ that he had enjoyed his stay here. A. having added B. to add C. adding D. added(全国高考,94-32)
答案为 C。但是,分词短语 adding 是作方式状语还是作伴随情况状语呢?
词典解答
这里的分词短语 adding that ... 虽与伴随情况状语有些相似,但严格地说,它不是伴随情况状语,因为它所表达的情景并不与句子的动作相伴而产生。实际上,它起着补充说明的作用,相当于一个并列分句,但比分句简洁明快:
... adding that he had enjoyed his stay here = and added that he had enjoyed his stay here 再如：My train starts at six, arriving in Chicago at ten. = ... and arrived in Chicago at ten.
