帮忙分析一下句子结构。

帮忙分析一下句子结构。The comments follow Mr Kim's meeting with the President，in his first known foreign trip since taking office in 2011.
since…是做trip的定语，in… trip做什么成分啊

Answer 1

整个句子意思是：金总统自2011年上台以来首次出国访问，对此次访问的评论随之而来。
整个句子主语是The comments，谓语是follow in，宾语是his first known foreign trip.
follow in：跟随。但经常直接用follow，不加in.
since taking place in 2011做状语，起补充说明时间的作用
his first known foreign trip做宾语，它前面的follow是谓语，主语是the comments。为帮助你理解，整个句子简化一下是这样的：The comments follow in his first known foreign trip.

Answer 2

The comments （主语）follow（谓语） Mr Kim's meeting with the President（宾语部分），in his first known foreign trip （时间状语）since taking office in 2011（定语，修饰trip）.这些评论是继金先生会晤总统之后发表的，这也是2011年金先生任职以来已知的首次出访。

追问

in …trip是谁的状语，meeting在这里是名词还是动名词

追答

in …trip是动名词短语Mr Kim's meeting...的状语。meeting 是动名词，英语动名词可以有自己的状语。如：
I don't mind Tom's smoking here. (here就是状语）
Running too fast (too fast是状语）is not good for your health.
本句还可以这样译：继金先生在他2011年任职以来所知的首次出访、会晤了总统之后，各种评论纷至沓来。
