(1) “before”作为连词的用法：其基本含义是“在…之前”，也可以根据语境的不同灵活翻译成“才”、“还没来得及就…”、“就”等等含义。
1）与情态动词can / could 连用，这时从句虽为肯定形式，根据汉语习惯译成“还没来得及就”，强调从句动作发生之前主句的动作已经发生。
Before I could get in a word, he had measured me.
Before she cold move, she heard a loud noise, which grew to a terrible roar.
2)用于肯定句中强调主句所表达的时间、距离长，或花费的精力多，译成“才”；We had sailed four days and four nights before we saw lands.
We waited a long time before the train arrived.
3)用于否定句中，强调主句所表达的时间、距离短，或花费的精力少，译成“不到…就”；

5) 有时before还有“宁愿”的意思；
I’d shoot myself before I apologized to him.
6) 用于It be / take some time before + 句子，这时要根据主句的时态分两种情况：(1)若主句为一般将来时，从句是一般现在时。主句是肯定句译成“要过很多时间才…”；主句是否定句译成“用不了多久就…”。
It will be many years before the situation improves;
It won’t be long before we meet again.

It was some time before I realized the truth.
It wasn’t long before she became a brave soldier.
After that it still took seven years before they got married.
注：主句的谓语动词为延续性动词时，before与until可以互换。

It was Dec. 18th when I was born.
8) before long 和long before的区别：
before long: “不久，很快”（before为prep, long为n.) 在句中常作状语，多与动词的过去时或将来时连用。
The work will be finished before long.
long before: “很久以前”（long 为adv. )可以单独使用，这时before 为prep.;也可以接从句，这时为conj.,常与过去时或过去完成时连用，后接从句时也可用于一般现在时。

Lesson 20 One man in a boat 独坐孤舟 Fishing is my favourite sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But this does not worry me. Some fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots and rubbish. I am even less lucky. I never catch anything -- not even old boots. After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag. 'You must give up fishing!' my friends say. 'It's a waste of time.' But they don't realize one important thing. I'm not really interested in fishing. I am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!

新概念二册20课答案 【篇一：新概念英语第二册第二十课课后习题答案详解 lesson20】 lass=txt>lesson20 1. b 根据课文第4行 i never catch anything---not even old boots, 只有b. nevercatches anything 与课文实际内容相同，而其 他3个选择都与课文内容不符。 2.c 根据课文最后一句i am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothingat all! 只有c. doing nothing 是正确答案，而 其他3个选择都不符合课文内容。 3.b 本句是对主语提问的，回答是fishing.a. who (谁)是对主语提 问的；c. whom(谁)是对宾语提问的；d. whose(谁的)确是对定语提 问的；只有b. which 是对做主语的事物提问的，所以选b. 4.b 本句是带never的否定句，只有b. anything 可以用在否定句中。而a. nothing若用在否定句中，就会使原句变成肯定意义的句子，不符合题目意思；c. something 只能用于肯定句中；d. everything也不能用在否定句中。 5.c 前面句子 i am even less lucky 中的 less(不及)是表示否定意 义的比较级,只有c. not so是表示否定意义的,而其他3个选择都没 有否定的意思. 6.b 只有b. an empty bag 最符合语法。而其他3个选择都有语法 错误。 a. a empty bag 中empty是以元音开头的，前面不能用a 而应该用an; c. empty bag 中 bag 是可数名词，需要用an 来修饰； d. oneempty bag 不符合习惯用法，单数可数名词前通常用不 定冠词a 或an 修饰，除非表示强调才用one 修饰。因此应该选b. 7.c 只有c. all 才能使这个句子同前一句i am only interested in doingnothing.的含义相符合，all等于the things that ，可以代替doing nothing. 而其他3个选择中a. only 和d. the only 不符合语法，b. the one 不符合题目意思，不能完全表达清楚。 8.a 只有a. the one i like best 才能解释前一句的my favourite sport(我最喜爱的一项运动)，而b. cd.都不符合题目的意思。 9.c 只有c. tries to catch (设法捕获)才是 a fisherman(钓鱼人) 通 常做的，而其他3个选择a. buys(买)， b. sells(卖)， d. keeps(保存) 都不符合题目意思，所以应该选c.
