Question

1.一道英语选择题，参考答案为B，请分析一下 2.第二句话最后为什么用形容词而不用副词

A phone call sent him _______ to the hospital.
A. hurry B. hurrying C. to hurry D. hurried
Thinking that her daughter was doing homework, the mother left the room, quick and gentle.

Answer 1

第一题中的 hurrying 属于动词现在分词的用法，在这里，hurry 这个动作与逻辑主语 him 是主动地关系，所以用ing分词。
第二题中是形容词作状语的用法。形容词除了常见的在句中作定语、表语和宾语补足语外，也可像副词一样在句中作状语。举个例子：He spent 7days in the wind and snow，cold and hungry．（他在风雪中过了七天，又冷又饿。）例子中的 cold and hungry 与题中的 quick 与 gentle 用法一致。稍稍总结下：以下均可用作伴随状语：
1.形容词 She returned to work, unhappy．
2．现在分词He rushed out，even forgetting to take his overcoat．
3．过去分词 Accompanied by the professor，he spent several days doing experiments one after another．
4．介词短语 I said it in fun．
5．名词短语 Theory should go hand in hand with practice．
6．独立结构 The teacher came in，book in hand．

Answer 2

电话打来，他慌忙地去了医院
【hurrying是修饰宾语him表示他去医院的状态】

形容词短语quick and gentle 作伴随状语。
如果选quickly and gently, 应去掉逗号，the mother left the room quickly and gently

Answer 3

第一题B仿造了 send sb flying的用法。这句话意译：一个电话让他急匆匆赶去了医院。
牛津高阶：
send someone flying
cause someone to be knocked violently off balance or to the ground: the recoil of the gun sent him flying

第二句最后形容词用法为主语补足语，表示主语the mother的状态——迅速而安静地（离开了房间）
类似地还有， He arrived home, safe and sound. 他安然无恙地回到家中。

Answer 4

状语从句，him 和hurry 是主动关系
quick 和gentle 是形容词做伴随状语

Answer 5

hurring做伴随状语
