IV. Sentence structure
Read the sentences and pay attention to their structures.
1. In another scene, Shanshan tries to kill Liu with different weapons (武器) from the sea, hurting no one but herself.
hurting no one but herself 为现在分词短语做结果状语。现在分词作结果状语表示一种必然性（自然结果）。例如：

European football is played in more than 80 countries, making it one of the most popular games in the world. (全国卷)
2. Jokes aside, what makes The Mermaid stand out from the rest of this Lunar New Year’s films is that it also carries a message of social awareness.
aside 相当于 apart from “除了”。
句中what 引导的是主语从句，that引导的是表语从句。
V. Vocabulary
1. The movie had a record-breaking first week, earning 1.79 billion yuan at the box office after it came out on Feb 8.

come out是个不及物动词词组，主语就是“书、唱片、杂志”等。如：
A second edition will come out next year.第二版将在明年出版。
