老师好,
我大体了解before(two years before过去时间点之前)和ago(two years ago现在之前)的区别,也知道用before的话,时态应用过去完成时。但是今天遇到了两个句子:
1. If you want to get up early, sleeping earlier the night before is expected to be successful.
所以,before并不限于 过去的时间点,可以扩展到 某个特定的时间点?
假设现在是周三,我们讲度假计划:我们周六要乘飞机,当然前一天晚上要订机票。其中的“前一天晚上”可以用 the night before吗?
2. (柯林斯 fight词条7)We think maybe he took off because he had a big fight with his dad the night before.
because从句不用过去完成时是因为在从句里吗?
试对比AWOL词条下的例句:
Two soldiers had gone AWOL the night before.(类似例句太多)
谢谢老师!
