3 beyond doing sth 是什么用法

My life as a tax-paying employed person began in middle school, when, for three whole days, I worked in a baking factory. My best friend Betsys father was a manager at Hough Bakeries, which, at Easter time, made little bunny (兔子) cakes for all its stores throughout Cleveland. It happened that the plant downtown needed eight kids for temporary help during our spring break, for which I had no plans beyond listening to my favorite records. I’d earn minimum wage. I’d see how a factory worked. My parents thought all of this was a grand idea and called Betsy’s dad with their permission.

这是2021年新高考英语全国卷I完形填空中的一段。请问加粗部分 beyond doing sth 是什么用法?

beyond 在此为介词,其基本义为超出……之外,可引申指以外(用于否定句),其后可接名词、代词、动名词以及what从句。如:

Fred owns nothing beyond the clothes on his back. 除了身上穿的衣服以外,弗雷德一无所有。

Beyond this, nothing I know. 除此之外,我一无所知。

Your sisters didn’t know anything beyond spending money. 你姐姐除了花钱什么都不懂。

Beyond writing a few books, he has done nothing worth mentioning. 他除了写了三两本书以外,其余的不值得一提。

There’s not much we can do for him, beyond giving him our sympathy. 我们除了向他表示同情外,帮不了他多大忙。

Beyond telling us that she was well educated, he has nothing to say about her. 除了告诉我们她受过良好教育以外,他没有说起过任何关于她的情况。

I’ve got nothing to tell you beyond what I said earlier. 除了刚才所说的之外,我没有什么可告诉你的。

I had no plans beyond listening to my favorite records.

介词 beyond在本句意为 except, apart from,是美国英语。用于否定意义的句子时,还等于besides,本句 beyond 可以用这三个介词替换,意思保持不变。

除了听我最喜欢的唱片,我没有别的打算。
