News of their father came through ,at first telling them he was dangerously ill ,but then saying he was slowly getting better。
dangerously 是副词，帮我分析一下was dangerously ill。 谢谢

Answer 1

ill(生病的adj.) 是形容词，dangerously(危急地adv.)，是副词，修饰形容词ill，was dangerously ill （病得很严重的）。

整句翻译：关于他们父亲的消息传来了，一开始他们得知他病危了，但然后他们又得知他（的情况）正在好转。

Answer 2

濒临死亡

Answer 3

was 系动词 ill 形容词 dangerously 副词
病的很严重
