resign(ed)
1.下面四句都可以说：
- He has resigned.
- He has resigned his secretaryship.
- He has resigned from his secretaryship.
- He has resigned from the company.
第三句在美国比在英国用得多，在英国在表示“职位”的词的前面通常用resign而不用resign from。
2.Mr Hart has been appointed as our representative in place of Mr Mills (resigned)里的resigned作“已经辞职的”解，是不及物动词resign的过去分词用作形容词。
3.He resigned himself to living alone（他忍耐着独居）和He soon grew resigned to living alone等句子里的to是介词，不是不定式的符号，所以living不可改作live。
4.关于resigned lassitude（逆来顺受的心灰意懒）等，参见much 3 (5) E
