长难句分析

解：1主语＋2谓语＋3宾语＋4从句

析：4从句为被动态，改为主动态为：People(主语) deemed(谓语) him(宾语) old enough to go with his lord father and his brothers to see the king's justice done(宾语补足语).

【语法点】

①It is the first time +从句，从句用现在完成时。

②It was the first time +从句，从句用过去完成时。

③It's high/about/good time +从句(现在是……的时候了)，从句用一般过去式或“should+do”的虚拟语气结构

注：其中should不可省略，time前不加定冠词the

deem 认为

They would take any action deemed necessary.

他们会采取认为必要的任何行动。
