同学你好~
in the midst of 是一个介词词组,意思是“在……当中”
Angelo laid the gun carefully on the table, in the midst of brochures and other papers.
安杰洛小心翼翼地把枪放在桌上的一堆手册和文件中间。
which在这里引导定语从句,which指代the two hills
因为关系代词which前有介词词组in the midst of,所以in the midst of which一起移动到了定语从句的句首,形成了“介词+关系代词”结构,也就是in the midst of which (the two hills)a great river flowed
in the midst of which flowed two rivers 相当于
in the midst of the two hills flowed a great river
句子原本是 a great river flowed in the midst of which (the two hills)
in the midst of which (the two hills)
a great river flowed经过了倒装,变成了in the midst of which (the two hills)
flowed a great river 谓语flowed放到了主语a great river之前。这是因为in the midst of which是介词短语+which结构,从句可以倒装。
现在分词表示句子的主语是动词-ing形式所表示的动作的发出者,表主动或正在进行;
过去分词句子的主语是动词-ed形式所表示的动作的承受者,表被动或完成。
He went out
shutting the door behind him. 他出去后将门随手关上。 (shutting这个动作是主动发出的)
Given more attention, the trees could have grown better. 如果对这些树多关心一些,它们本来会长得更好。 (given这个动作是被施加的)
The dog entered the room, following his master. 这条狗跟着主人进了屋。
following这个动作是句子的主语the dog主动发出的,狗主动跟着主人。
The master entered the room, followed by his dog. 主人进了屋,后面跟着他的狗。
followed这个动作是句子的主语the master被动接受的,主人被狗跟着
祝同学学习进步~
