特殊的连系动词
be 是最常见的连系动词。除 be 之外，还有一些动词，从表面上看像是地地道道的实义动词，而实际上却具有系动词的某些特征。这些动词后面也可以跟形容词或名词等作表语。 请比较下面两例：
The sun is hot . 太阳很热。
The sun shines hot . 太阳火辣辣地照着大地。
句中的 is 是连系动词，不是实义动词；句中的 shines 则为特殊连系动词，本身具有实义，只是在译成汉语时，它的词义不一定直译出来。
再比较下面两例：
They are our friends .
They stand our friends .
句中的 are 是连系动词；stand 是 “ 特殊连系动词 ” ，有 “ 竖持不动摇，仍然是 ” 之意。
可见， “ 特殊连系动词 ” 具有双重性能，即连系动词性能和实义动词性能。
常见的 “ 特殊连系动词 ” 可分为三类：
1. 表示 “ 变成某种状态 ” 意义的系动词：become , come , fall , get , go , grow , make , prove , run , shine , turn , turn out , wear , work。例如：
