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:①I called him up last night,but his mother told me he had left for Wuhan two days before.②She 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:①I have never been to Beijing before.②Have you ever seen a tiger before?③I 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:①I graduated from the college twenty years ago.②I 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。
