Question

哪位大哥帮分析下这句话的英语语法？

This applies not only to other consumers, but to businesses and government bodies as well, who, to earn consumers trust must been seen to be acting responsibly, otherwise many people will remain “sceptical about whether government and business…..match their rhetoric about sustainability with action”这句话主要问题在must been seen，这是错误的用法吗？亦或是句子中其他成分的过去分词形式表被动吗？

Answer 1

此句没有错。这其实就是定语从句 ...who must been seen ... 只要把 to earn consumers trust 的前后都用逗号隔开就容易看出来了。意思是说那些商业和政府部门的... 行为已经被世人看到了，是过去完成时的被动式。

Answer 2

this applies not only to consumers

这不仅适用于消费者

but to businesses and government bodies as well,

但对企业和政府机构也是如此

who, to earn consumers trust much be seen acting responsibly

谁要赢得消费者的信任，就必须看到他们负责任地行事

otherwise many people will remain.

否则，很多人会不保留对这样的意见

skeptical about whether government and business match their rhetoric about sustainability with action

怀疑政府和企业是否将其关于可持续发展的言论与行动相匹配
