Question

He has elected as his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in a Socratic way about moral problems.
请问 有 elect as A B 这样的用法么 一般不都是 elect B as A 这属于倒装么?

Answer 1

这个是宾语后置.等同于
He has elected //the activity of thinking in a Socratic way about moral problems//as his primary duty and pleasure in life.
as 引导的是补语,补充说明.也可以看作补语前置,英语当中有不少这样的现象.
