英语语法：表示抽象概念的属格用法
4）表示抽象概念。例如：
Means of transport运输工具
例句：Many strange new means of transport have been developed in our century, the strangest of them being perhaps the hovercraft.
本世纪已研制出许多新奇的交通工具，其中最新奇的要数气垫船了。
结构分析：Many strange new means of transport是主语（Many strange new是三个前置定语），have been developed是被动谓语，现在完成时，in our century是时间状语, the strangest of them being perhaps the hovercraft是同位语。
News of importance要闻
例句：No one knows what is news of importance until a century later.
要过一个世纪之后，人们才会知道什么是重要新闻。
结构分析：No one是主语，knows是谓语，现在一般时，what引导宾语从句，在从句中作主语，is是系动词，news of importance是表语，until a century later是时间状语。
The housing problems of the poor
穷人的住房问题
例句：This is a report on the housing problems of the poor people.
