【延伸】weight的动词形式是weigh，它有如下三种用法：

1．It's true that I'm famous and everyone loves my songs.

①The more she learns, the more she wants to learn.
她越学越想学。
②The harder he works, the more he will get.
他工作越努力，得到的就越多。(当主句是一般将来时态时，从句用一般现在时态)
宾语补足语
宾语补足语是对宾语的一个补充，往往和宾语之间可以构成逻辑上的主谓关系。可作宾语补足语的有：名词、代词、形容词、副词、分词、不定式、介词短语和名词性从句。如：

本单元主要讲make后面加宾语和宾语补足语，下面就着重以make为例作进一步的讲解。
(1)make＋宾语＋名词(作宾语补足语)，意为“选……为……；把……当……”。如：

当把这样的句子变为被动语态时，原句中省略的动词不定式符号to必须还原。如例句②须转换成：
