題目中副詞修飾動詞?
Over the past three years,the gross salary of our employees has increased an
average of 4.5 percent every year.
請問 an average 是當做副詞修飾動詞(has increased)嗎?
是不是加了一個介系詞on an average 才對?

The gross salary of our employees------s
has increased-------intransitive verb
"on" an average of 4.5% every yr."over the past 3 yrs".--------o, prep.phrase,not adj phr nor adv phr but rather noun phrase used as object of the verb "has increased" following the v
Over the past three years, the gross salary of our employees has increased "by" an average of 4.5 present every year.
名詞average前面應加上介系詞by,成為介系詞片語by an average of 4.5 percent,用來修飾不及物動詞increase
字典例句:
Japan's industrial output increased by 2%.

不對吧。
an average of 就算看作是形容也是描述4.5percent這"數值名詞"的由來,跟動詞increase沒有形容/修飾的關係。
雖然on an average這樣寫法沒錯,但你提議的on an average而省去後preposition "of"本身對英語的phrase/clause有誤解。
若要把4.5%形容成"你想那樣"便要寫成:
...has increased 4.5% per year on average.
若寫on an average一般只會用作"總結"/"表達"計算的用意是"計算一個平均數",而甚少會用作形容一個實際數值。
