Question:
He agreed with them about the need for change.
可以帮我分析一下这句话吗？详细一点。最近对介词短语作状语，作宾语有些疑惑，特别是动词后面的介词短语，为什么不是状语而是宾语，如这里的agree
with them。居然一下子没想起不及物动词
加介词再加宾语的语法。

谢邀!
总结:
I.
如是 “Agree” 单独被视为
“不及物动词 Intransitive Verb”,
那么 “with them about the need for change”
便是 “
介词短语
Prepositional Phrase”修饰
“agree”;
II. 如是
“Agree with” 被视为
“及物动词词组Transitive Phrasal
Verb”, 那么 “them about the need for
change” 便是
“宾语名词短语Object Noun Phrase”, “agree
with” 的宾语.
两个观点都正确，文法不是科学，不是只有一个正确的答案。
分析
A.
“Agree”
独立运用
1.
“Agree”
为及物动词 (Transitive
Verb)
如下是两个例子
a.
We agree the time to meet
this Sunday.
(Subject Pronoun: “we”; Transitive Verb: “agree”; Object Noun
Phrase: “the time to meet this Sunday”)
b.
Both sides agree the terms
of the contract.
(Subject Noun Phrase: “both sides”; Transitive Verb: “agree”;
Object Noun Phrase: “the terms of the contract”)
2.
“Agree”
为不及物动词 (Intransitive
Verb)
如下是两个例子
a.
We agree on the time to meet
this Sunday.
(Subject Pronoun: “we”; Intransitive Verb: “agree”; Prepositional
Adverbial Phrase: “on the time to meet this Sunday” modifying
“agree”)
b.
Both sides agree on the
terms of the contract.
(Subject Noun Phrase: “both sides”; Intransitive Verb: “agree”;
Prepositional Adverbial Phrase: “on the terms of the contract”
modifying “agree”)
主题句子“He agreed with them about the need for
change”只能够是 A.2, 也即是
“agree” 是不及物动词, “with them about
the need for change”
是“介词短语”.
B.
“Agree with”为及物动词动词词组
(Transitive Verb Phrasal
Verb)
有一种动词叫
“动词词组 Phrasal Verb”,
是一个动词 + Adverb
组成, 看: https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/49742054
“Agree with”
可以视为及物动词动词词组 (Transitive Verb Phrasal Verb),
see:
https://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/agree-with
主题句子“He agreed with them about the need for
change”在”agreed with”
是及物动词词组，“them about the need for
change”便是
“宾语名词短语Object Noun
Phrase”.
结论
(看上面的
“总结”)
日常的英文应用没有细心研究文法的分析，大概知道文法正确便算了，其实你问到我才跟你分析的。
