题目内容

A. | when | B. | before | C. | after | D. | until |
分析 ---你觉得要过多久我们才会知道面试的结果?
---大约一个月.
解答 答案:B
分析句子结构可知,该问句符合"It+(will )be+时间段+before …"的结构; 意为:"过了多久才…";本句的意思为:要过多久我们才会知道面试的结果;故选B
点评 本题考查从属连词before的用法:
1.before 作从属连词时,意为"在…之前,还没来得及…就";She left the company before I could have a word with her.2.用于句型"it be+时间段+before …"表示"过了多久才…"It will be half a year before you graduate from this school;3.趁…(还没有);Do it before you forget it.
另外,还应注意until与before的区别:before 在…之前;比…早些;强调时间先后关系;until在…以前;直到…时;当主句是肯定句时,表示主句动作的终止时间;主句是否定句时,强调主句动作的起始时间.
