We would just come outside...中would是表示过去的习惯吗?

VOA 《Let's hop on our bikes: US kids get active during times of covid》

"We were all pretty much bored with covid, because we couldn't do many things.

We would just come outside and play and bike around and then eventually more and more kids some joined us from up the

street."

以上是一个美国小孩面对记者采访时说的。

请教老师:We would just come outside...中would是表示过去的习惯吗?(有点类似于used to)

就是说,在过去某一阶段,经常做某事 ?

另外,顺便请教老师from up the street 中为什么from up 可以2个介词连用呢?

1 关于would, 是的,这个would表示过去的习惯动作。

2 from这个介词有些特殊,它不但可以后接名词作宾语,还可以后接地点副词作宾语,例如from here,from there,from where, from above, from underneath等。介词短语具有副词性和形容词性,所以其副词性可以让表示地点的介词短语作from的宾语,例如from behind the door, from under the bed等。刘老师的解释是这里省略了somewhere, 即from somewhere behind the door. 无论怎样解释,总之你要知道from可以后接副词和介词短语。我相信这绝不是你第一次见到from后接介词短语,为什么要大惊小怪呢?
