We think him clever.
What he said made me angry.
We consider the answer correct.
Everyone calls him Tom.(宾语)(宾补)宾语补足语的表现形式：带有宾语补足语的一般句型为：某些及物动词（如make等）+直接宾语（名词或代词）+宾语补足语宾语补足语的9种表示法：His father named him Doming.
They painted their house white.
You mustn’t force him to lend his money to you.

The speaker raised her voice to make herself heard.
They found their new bikes stolen.过去分词不仅可以作动词宾语的补足语，还可以作介词宾语的补足语：Eg. The murderer was brought in, with his hands tied behind his back,
With the homework finished, he was allowed to watch the football match. 过去分词用在表示状态的动词 keep ，leave 等的后面。
They kept the door locked for a long time.
Don’t leave the windows broken like this all the time.

I have had my bike repaired .
The villagers had many trees planted just then.②表示“遭遇到某种不幸；受到打击”等。 如：
My elder sister had her wallet stolen on a bus last month.
The old man had his wrist broken in the accident.
(2)”make + oneself+过去分词”， 在这种结构中，过去分词的动词必须是表示结果含义的，如：
I raised my voice to make myself heard.
They managed to make themselves understood using very simple English.3.过去分词用在感官动词watch ,notice, see, hear, listen to, feel, find 等的后面 当我们到学校时，我们看见门锁着。
When we got to school, we saw the door locked.
我们可以听到大雨点敲打窗户的声音。
We can hear the windows beaten by the heavy rain drops.
4.过去分词用在want, wish, like, expect, order等表示“希望，愿望，命令”这一类动词的后面作宾语补足语。The teacher wouldn’t like the problem (to be) discussed at the moment.老师不想此刻讨论这个问题。
我想要这套衣服照他自己的尺寸做。
I want the suit (to be ) made , according to his own measure.
我父母希望我好好准备入学考试。
My parents expected me to be well-prepared for the entrance examination.
5.过去分词用在“with+宾语＋宾补”这一结构中，过去分词与宾语之间是动宾关系。
