remain可用作及物动词吗(the fact remains that...)

However, the fact remains that The Starry Night is now one of the world’s most famous paintings.

这是2020版高中英语北师大版必修第三册第7单元(p8)的句子。

请问句的 the fact remains that...是何用法？这里的 remain 是及物动词吗？

网友句子中的 remain 不是不及物动词，而是系动词（用法与is相似）。

也可将 The fact remains that...视为固定句型，与 The fact is that...用法相似（只是 remain 与 is 的意思有所区别）。又如：

The fact remains that people are still starving. 实际情况是，人们仍在挨饿。

The fact remains that we are still two teachers short. 事实是我们仍缺两个老师。

The fact remains that inflation is unacceptably high. 事实是通货膨胀率仍高得离谱。

He may not have meant it, but the fact remains that he committed a crime. 他可能不是有意的，但事实上他确实犯了罪。

可将remain 视为不及物动词，the fact后接that引导的同位语从句，只是被谓语动词remains隔开了。
