Before 和ago, With pleasure- All right -Not at all用法小结before和ago都能表示在一段时间以前,但是二者的内涵和具体用法有明显的区别: 1. before表示从过去或将来某一时间算起多少时间以前,由于与这一时间状语连用的行为先发生在过去或将来某一时刻之前,因此往往出现在过去完成时态或将来完成时态中。例如: I called him up last night, but his mother told me he had left for Wuhan two days before. She said that she had married him five years before.2.如果不具体表明多少时间以前,before意为从前;以前,表示从现在开始追溯到过去一段时间,或者主句的谓语动词表示的是经常、反复发生的行为,以副词的形式置于句末,可以用在现在完成时态中。例如:I have never been to Beijing before.Have you ever seen a tiger before? I often go over the lessons that I have learned a few days before.注意: before前的时间状语如果是特定的,含义不一样。试比较:He said he had arrived here a day before. (一天前)He said he had arrived here the day before. (前一天)3. ago指的是从现在起到过去时间的某一点的一段时间。这个时间状语常与一般过去时态或过去进行时态连用。例如: I graduated from the college twenty years ago.I was asked what I was doing a month ago.4. 表示在某一时间点或事件以前时,只能用before,不用ago。因为这种用法是将before当作介词或连词使用。ago不具有这种功能。例如: He will come back before eleven oclock. Where did your brother study before he joined the army? It was hoped that this would be achieved before the year 2006.5.按语法规则,ago只能与一般过去时连用,但在since three years ago这类短语中能与现在完成时态连用。因为three years ago构成一个名词短语,共同作since的宾格,意为自从三年前以来。例如: He has been here since three years ago. I have taught English in this school since twenty years ago.6. 含before的从句一般不用将来时态,如果采用will / would +V.时,一般被认为是情态或虚拟语气。例如:I would die before I would confess to it.7.如果before从句是一般过去时态,所暗示的是过去发生的事,主句则宜用过去完成时,语义偏重于过去某阶段的行为或状况时,还可与一般过去时态连用。例如: I had never seen a Red Army man before I arrived in Xian. They asked me things that happened before the boy was born.8. 不少的语法书上说,before引导的从句习惯上不与否定的主句连用,要用until。实际上二者都可以,有时在意义上有些区别。试比较:He didnt arrive until I returned. 直到我回来时他才到达。He did not arrive before I returned. 在我回来之前他尚未到达。I didnt manage to do it until you had explained how. 直到你解释了如何干,我才设法完成了那项工作。I didnt manage to do it before you had explained how. 你解释了如何干之后,我才设法完成了那件工作。9. before在句中的含义比较灵活,虽然before引导的也是一个时间状语,但译成汉语时却不必死译为在以前。可以采取下面几种译法:(A)译为才;(B)译为就;(C)译为尚未、还没有、来不及、不要、别;(D)译为在的时候还没有;(E)译为如果、否则、免得;(F)译为到、等到、没等就;(G)译为然后等。例如:A.
