(1)句中with “bones” on them短语在句中作后置定语,修饰cakes。 (2)with “bones” on them属于“with+宾语+宾语补足语”,即“with+复合宾语”结构。 “with+宾语+宾语补足语”,结构除在句中可作后置定语外,还可作状语,表示时间、原因、条件、伴随、行为方式等。“with+复合宾语”结构可归纳如下:
??prep.-phrase
with+宾语+宾补?
v.-ing/-ed??to do

as though/ if “仿佛;好像”,既可以引导表语从句,也可以引导方式状语从句,本句中引导的是表语从句。
as if 从句所表示的情况是事实或具有很大可能性时,通常用陈述语气;当其所表示的情况不是事实,而是主观的想象或夸大性的比喻时,通常用虚拟语气。 与现在事实相反 与过去事实相反 与将来事实相反 从句谓语动词用一般过去时(be动词用were) 从句谓语动词用过去完成时(如果从句有过去时间,则谓语动词用一般过去时) 从句谓语动词用would/could/ might+动词原形 adj./adv.
①It looks as though it is going to rain. 看上去天要下雨。(事实上可能要下) ②It looks as though it were going to rain. 看上去天要下雨。(事实上不下) ③He talks as if he knew all about it.
他说话的口气好像他知道所有的事情。 ④He behaved as if nothing had_happened. 他表现得若无其事。
注意 as though/if引导状语从句时,若主、从句主语一致,从句谓语中又含有be动词时,从句中的主语和be常常可以省略,从句就变成“as though/if+形容词/名词/介词短语/分词/不定式”。
⑤Jason paused as if (he was) expecting Lanny to speak. Jason暂停下来,好像他在期待Lanny讲话。
⑥He opened his mouth as though/if (he was) to_say something. 他张开嘴好像要说什么。

Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy.It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick,the aged,and children who have lost their parents,but also friends,workmates,relatives and neighbors whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.
Over 60 years ago,when a Cleveland man noticed that some people,such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed,too often felt forgotten and neglected,he developed in his mind the idea of showing them that they were remembered.He did this by giving them small gifts.With the help of his friends and neighbors,he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October.During the years that followed,other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration,which came to be called “Sweetest Day”.Over time,the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor,the sick and children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone,and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift.Soon the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.
Sweetest Day is not based on any single group’s religious beliefs or on a family relationship.It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.Because liar many people remembering takes the form of gift giving.Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care,in a positive way.
