Question

下边这个句子中状语：since the time of the Industrial Revolution. 为什么不是 主句 Canada was 状语?
It appeared that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families that had occurred all through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution.

Answer 1

这是it appears that +句子 句式
在that从句中主语是canada 谓语是过去进行时was once more falling..,family 后面是定语从句,family做从句的主语,since the time of .是定语从句的状语,因此翻译为,看上去,加拿大正朝着小家庭的趋势迈入,这些小家庭自从工业革命以来已经在整个西方世界出现.
