第四、语法点拨

1. ... and came back to find Tess fast asleep．

要点解析：划线部分的结构式find+名词+形容词，表示发现某人处于什么状况。形容词fast asleep做宾语Tess的补足语。

2. He saw her in her white dress among the leaves, a pale, shining figure in the dark．

要点解析1：划线部分的结构是saw +somebody+介词短语，表示发现某人在某处。文中的介词短语in her white dress among leaves做宾语her的补足语。

要点解析2：a pale, shining figure in the dark和前面的介词短语共用谓语动词语saw和宾语her。因此，这个结构式find+somebody+名词，意思是发现某人是是么样子。

3. The birds and animals slept, safe in and under the trees．

要点解析：划线部分是形容词短语作伴随状况状语。
