13、分析】 这是一个倒装句,其正常语序为:The British explorer James Cook didnt cross the Antarctic Circle until the late 18th century, but he never saw land.在 not.until 句型中,当 not until 引导的时间状语(从句)置于句首时,主句须用部分倒装,即将助动词/系动词/情态动词放在主语之前。(1)not.until/till. “直到才”该句型通常与非延续性动词连用,强调主句所发出的动作或情景一直到 until/till 所表示的时间才发生。(2)until/till
14、 用于肯定句中,主句的谓语动词必须是延续性动词,表示这一动作或状态一直延续到 until/till 所表示的时间为止。(3)not.until 的强调句型: It is/was not until.that.Not until he went through real hardship did he realize the love we have for our families is important.直到他经历了真正的困难,他才意识到我们对家人的爱的重要性。He watched TV until/till midnight last night.他昨晚看电视一直看到半夜。I had n
