这句话是由the convergence of these two growing trends 开头,那么这整个名词词组就是主语,核心词汇是convergence。
主语不难找。当主语找到之后接下来就是谓语动词了。陈述句一般来说谓语动词在主语之后,但是并不是每个主语后面的动词都是谓语,因为一句话主句谓语动词只有一个。如果主语后面出现that,where,which,who,when,although等连词连接的从句,则谓语动词需要跳过一个,找第二个。举例如下:
The unity that should characterize the strong system is developed by affording opportunity for diversity, which appears to be essential if education is to develop in consideration of the needs of children and youth.
这句话上面提到过,the unity是主语,后面紧接着是that 因此,我们需要跳过一个动词即从句动词characterize,而去找第二个动词is developed,而后者就是主句谓语了。
第二种情况是如果主语后面出现逗号,一般需要找第二个逗号,紧随第二个逗号后面的动词一般就是谓语动词了。举例如下:
The SETI institute, a Californian research foundation, managed to raise $ 16 million to fund Project Phoenix, which is using the Australia Telescope at Parks in New South Wales for its search.
这句话the SETI institute作为主语,后面出现逗号,则需要跳过两逗号之间的内容,那么紧随其后的managed就是谓语动词了。
