since:
He has worked very hard since he entered the factory.
( enter为瞬间性动词,该句为: 从他入厂以来,他工作一直非常努力。)
We haven't seen each other since I worked in the factory.
( work为延续性动词,该句为: 自从我不在工厂以来,我们没见过面。可说成: We haven't wen each other since I stopped working in the factory.)
since常用于“It' a+some time+since sb. did sth“结构。试比较:
It's two years since he joined the army.他参军有两年了。
It' a two years since be was a soldier.他退役有两年了。
before:
【例】He had measured me beforer I could say a word.
before也可用于it结构,与 since 结构比较相似,注意它们所用时态的区别,其结构通常是:"It will be + some time + before sb. does sth.’或" It was + some time + before sb. did sth. "。可表示将来或过去两个概念。常译作“……才……”。
【例】
Duing the war he joined the army and it was three years before he came back.
