give双宾语
双宾语由直接宾语和间接宾语组成。直接宾语是谓语动词的承受者,间接宾语表示谓语动作的方向(对谁做)或动作的目标(为谁做),间接宾语紧接在谓语动词后,但它不能单独存在。它和直接宾语组成双宾语,例:
Please show me your passport.请把护照给我看一下。(your passport是直接宾语,me是间接宾语)
常用的能接双宾语的及物动词
有:give, teach, buy, lend, find, hand, leave, sell, show, read, pay, make, offer, build, pass, bring, cook等。
I’ll fetch you a chair.我给你拿一只椅子。(a chair是直接宾语,you是间接宾语)
间接宾语可以用一个由to 表示动作方向)或for 表示动作目标)引起的短语来表示。这时,间接宾语置于直接宾语之后。我们可以把上面例句改写为:
Please show your passport to me.
I'll fetch a chair for you.
一般用法如下:for example:
give sth to sb = give sb sth.
一、双宾语
英语中,有些及物动词可接两个宾语(双宾语),即指人的间接宾语和指物的直接宾语。常用句型为:主语+及物动词+间接宾语+直接宾语。如:
Give me a cup of tea, please. 请给我一杯茶。
有时,间接宾语也可改为由介词to或for引起的短语,放在直接宾语的后面。如:
She passed him the salt. =She passed the salt to him. 她把盐递给了他。
Her uncle bought her an English-Chinese dictionary yesterday. = Her uncle bought an English-Chinese dictionary for her yesterday. 昨天,她叔叔给她买了一本英汉词典。
2.But the fishing industry in Louisiana is responsible for about a third of all seafood caught in the United States.
be responsible for为…负责,形成…的原因
例句:He is responsible for the assignment of jobs.

account for占有,占...百分比
例句:APEC members account for more than half of the world's economic output.
亚太经合组织成员的经济总量在世界占一半以上。
3.Bad weather has interfered with efforts to send out boats to clean up the oil and watch for the effects on wildlife in the Gulf of Mexico.
interfere with干预, 阻挠, 妨碍, 阻止
例句:That interferes with my plan.

这噪音妨碍我的工作。
clean up打扫; 清理
例句:This room needs cleaning up.
这间房间需要打扫一下。

4.But they say finding injured birds in the huge spill and sending out boats to rescue them will be a difficult job.
finding injured birds动名词做主语
1)动名词作主语通常表示抽象动作;而不定式作主语表示具体动作。
Smoking is prohibited(禁止)here.这里禁止抽烟。(抽象)
It is not very good for you to smoke so much.你抽这么多烟对你身体很不好。(具体)
(2)动名词作主语时,通常用以表示一件已知的事或经验。
不定式短语通常用来表示一件未完成的事或目的。
Climbing mountains is interesting.爬山很有趣。(经验)
在”There/It +be+ no use(good/help/need)”之后常用动名词做主语,而少用不定式,如: It /There is no use crying over the split milk. It /There isno help taking this medicine. 但是如果该句型中用了for引出不定式的逻辑主语,就只能用不定式,如: There is no good for us to do that exercise.
