题目

Despite he being busy,...这里的being busy是什么语法现象
这里的he能不能省，整句话是“despite he being busy,he still come to visit us”,写成“despite being busy,he still come to visit us"有没有问题,有没有讲解这种语法的详细网页

答案

应该是Despite his being busy
Despite用作介词时,与 in spite of同义,都表示“尽管”、“虽然”、“不顾”之意
放在句首时,要接成分,成分也就是句子的组成部分,由词或词组充当.
如：
Despite his advanced years,he is learning to drive．
虽然年事已高,他现在在学驾驶汽车.
Despite the drought,we expect a good crop．
尽管天旱,丰收依然在望.
