What time does your mother usually goes to work,Brown?
She usually goes to work at _____
A half past eight
B half to eight

答案选:A half past eight“ half past eight”是“八点半”的意思.没有half to eight这种说法.如果非得用“to +eight”这种说法的话,to前面应该接小于30的数字,表示“八点差多少分”的意思.比如:ten to eight表示...half to eight 不是7:30的意思吗,那有这种说法吗 a quarter to seven用to的话,超过30分钟就不能这样表达了。7:30就应该说成“half past seven”至于a quarter to seven这种表达是可以的,表示7点差一刻钟,也就是6:45.
