📊 句子结构拆解
主干
:We(主语)+ tend to think of(谓语)+ the decades(宾语)+ as a time of prosperity and growth(宾补)
语法点:
①介词following+名词构成介宾结构作后置定语,限定the decades;
②as+名词短语在此处作宾语the decades的补足语,补充说明其形式;
③with+名词+分词结构,为独立主格结构作伴随状语,它所表示的动作和谓语表示的动作或状态是同时发生的,其中returning home by the millions, going off to college on the G.I. Bill和lining up atthe marriage是三个并列的现在分词结构,由and连接。
📖 参考译文
