I should wish to die while still at work, knowing that others will carry on what I can no longer do, and content in the thought that what was possible has been done.
1、教程上说content是形容词做状语，是否being content的省略形式？是否没be content in sth的使用方法？
【答】形容词（短语）作状语，一般不加being，这是画蛇添足。加了being...就成了目前分词。没 be content in 的搭配，但有这个搭配： be content with （对...满足）。
2、in the thought that是状语修饰being content，一想到…..
【答】at the thought of 是“一想起...”，而inthe thought that...“在想到...时（感到满足）”。网友会见到如此的一些表达：
...in the belief that...
...in the expectation that...
...in the thought that...
that 从句都是前面单词的同位语。
