29、ny worked out and our fortunes made 是“have宾语宾语补足语”结构，destiny 与 work out 为逻辑上的动宾关系，所以用过去分词。例 1 I want to have my eyes examined tomorrow.我明天想去检查眼睛。例 2 My cell phone is out of order.I must have it repaired.我的手机出故障了，我必须找人修理一下。知识拓展(1)该结构中，have 为使役动词，sth.为宾语，过去分词作宾语补足语，表示被动的含义，宾语 sth.与 done 之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系。(
30、2)该结构的意思是“使某事被做”，可能是主语自己做，也可能是让别人做。此时 have 可用 get 替换。(3)有时它还可表示“遭遇/经历某种不幸的事(此事违背主语的意愿)”。即学即练 单句语法填空Richard got very upset and had his arms _(cross)after hearing the sad news.As the winner，John will receive a new Nikon camera and$1，000 in cash，and hell have his photo_(show)on the front page of the ne
