Heart is always the strongest part of the body, Xinhua quoted Chinese basketball star Yi Jianlian, formerly of the NBA, as saying after watching the clip of the teenager.
我在字典上查到的使用方法是quote sb as doing sth,但这里saying后面跟的是after引导的介宾短语,如此可以吗?
after watching the clip of the teenager为介词短语作saying的时间状语。这没什么奇怪的。
