We are even farther removed from the unfocused newspaper reviews published in England between the turn of the 20th century and the eve of World War II, at a time when newsprint was dirt-cheap and stylish arts criticism was considered an ornament to the publications in which it appeared.
主句,陈述全句的核心内容,说明当代读者与过去某个时期的报纸评论之间的距离更加遥远
成分推断 · 4 项
- 从句首开始,"We" 是代词主语,紧接着是 "are",这是系动词 be 的现在时形式
- "are" 之后是 "even farther removed",其中 "removed" 在此处是形容词,与 "are" 构成系表结构,类似 "be distant from"
- "even farther" 是程度状语修饰形容词 "removed",核心谓语结构是 "are removed"
- 检查句中其他动词形式:"published" 是过去分词作后置定语修饰 "reviews",不是谓语;"was" 和 "was considered" 以及 "appeared" 都在 "when" 和 "in which" 引导的从句中,不是主句谓语
- 因此主句的谓语是 "are removed"
- 句首的 "We" 是人称代词,位于谓语 "are removed" 之前
- "We" 与谓语 "are" 在人称和数上保持一致(第一人称复数),符合主谓一致原则
- "We" 是承受或处于 "are removed" 这个状态的对象,因此是主语
- "even" 是程度副词,"farther" 是副词比较级,两者组合在一起
- 这个短语位于系动词 "are" 和形容词 "removed" 之间,修饰 "removed" 的程度
- "even farther" 说明被移除的距离或程度更远,是程度状语
- "from" 是介词,引导介词短语,与形容词 "removed" 搭配表示 "远离某物"
- "from" 的宾语核心是 "the unfocused newspaper reviews",后面带有多层修饰成分
- "published in England between the turn of the 20th century and the eve of World War II" 是过去分词短语作后置定语修饰 "reviews"
- "at a time when..." 是介词短语作时间状语,进一步说明 "reviews" 发表的时代背景
- "the unfocused newspaper reviews" 及其所有修饰成分,作为介词 "from" 的宾语
时态 · 语态 · 语气
- 观察谓语结构 "are removed",其中 "are" 是系动词 be 的一般现在时形式,"removed" 是形容词而非过去分词
- 判断时态:"are" 是 be 动词的现在时,没有 "have/has" 等完成体标志,也没有 "will" 等将来时标志,因此是一般现在时
- 判断语态:谓语是系表结构(系动词 + 形容词),"be removed from" 表示状态,类似 "be distant from",不涉及主动或被动关系,因此语态为不适用
- 判断语气:句子是对现状的客观陈述,没有虚拟语气标志(如 were 虚拟式、should/would 等),也不是祈使句,因此是陈述语气
语义说明 一般现在时表达当前的状态或普遍事实;系表结构强调主语 "We"(当代读者)所处的状态,即与过去某种新闻评论的距离更远了,焦点在状态本身
