词汇突破

bravery [ˈbreɪvəri] 

n. 勇敢；勇气

grant [ɡrænt] 

v. （合法地）授予，允许；（勉强）承认，同意

n. （政府）拨款，补助金；授予，给予；合法转让，正式授予

结构分析其该句子的主干结构是：主语 Washington 谓语 overcame 宾语 the strong opposition。状语 to grant his slaves their freedom in his will 修饰主干。其中 who 引导的是非限定性定语从句修饰 Washington，该句中又有一个 that 引导的从句作 believe 的宾语。其中 during the Revolutionary War 是时间状语。
