2) Verbless Clauses
A verbless clause means clause-like construction in which a verb element is implied but not present. Such clauses are usually adverbial, and the omitted verb is a form of be. e.g. John believes the prisoner innocent. （注意在ppt中保持斜体）
In this sentence the italicized sequence is a verbless clause, which we assume is a reduced version of the to-infinitive clause:
John believes the prisoner to be innocent. （注意在ppt中保持斜体）
