为什么这个句子里缺be动词也可以?
有个原文里的句子:It's currently home to 2,500 people ,all but a handful of them indigenous Inuit.为什么不是“a handful of them are indigenous Inuit”?总感觉原句却了点啥.还有一个类似的句子,也是感觉缺be动词:But these sorts of products are heavy and bulky and the cost of transporting them relatively high.不应该是are relatively high吗?这是英国人写的,应该也没错,
It's currently home to 2,500 people ,all but a handful of them indigenous Inuit.
这一句的后半部分可看成是一个独立结构,也就是them后省略了being(也可改成:and all but a handful of them were indigenous Inuit.
如:
He came into the room,a book under his arm.(后半句可改为and a book was under his arm.
But these sorts of products are heavy and bulky and the cost of transporting them relatively high.
这一句后半句省略了be动词(is).
英语中的第二个单句可以省略谓语(前提是跟第一个单句谓语相同)
相当于:
and the cost of transporting them (is) relatively high.
