单词 | ago(since) |
释义 | ago : since — 38 副词 ago 同连词 since 不尽一样,它所表达的时间是从现在推算到过去的一段时间,所以总是用于一般过去时态,而且要放在它所修饰的那个词或词组的后面。(参见词目 36 和 37 ) 例如: The press campaign was started two weeks ago. 报纸上的宣传活动是在两星期前开展起来的。(用于一般过去时态)。 It seems longer ago than that. 看起来这件事要比那件事更早一些。(这是“ It seems that it was longer ago than that. ” 的省略,所以也是用于一般过去时态) I was in Beijing a month or so ago. 一个月左右以前,我在北京。(不说… a month ago or so ) 比较: Our new school building was completed two years ago. 我们的新校舍是在两年前完工的。(不说 It is two years ago since our new school building was compeleted ) It is two years since our new school building was completed. 我们的新校舍完成以来已有两年了。(不说 It was two years ago since …) It was two years ago that our new school building was completed. 我们的新校舍完工,那是两年前的事了。(不说 It is two years ago that …) |
