It only seconds the beggar grabbed the bread and gave it a big bite.

问题描述:

It only seconds the beggar grabbed the bread and gave it a big bite.
A.until B.when C.after D.before
知道答案选D,但是B.A.为什么不对.除了意思上,语法意义上有错吗.
特别是C,为什么不可以是 it seemed only seconds (when )the beggar grabbed the bread and gave it a big bite.详细比较下WHEN 和 BEFORE

1、“It is + 时间 + before” 表示“直到某事发生了才过了多长时间”或“过了多长时间某事才发生”【直译:在某事发生以前时间才有多长】.句中的 it 是指代时间的非人称代词,It was only seconds 意思是“时间仅仅...可以再详细讲一下,除了上述理由hardly when,为什么不可以是 it seemed only seconds when the beggar grabbed the bread and gave it a big bite.吗。seem 也是系动词,只不过代替了表示存在的 was 强调了从感觉上好象,其实在用法上属于换汤不换药,这个是知道,重点是WHEN和BEFORE在本题中的用法可以详细解释下吗。除了以固定用法HARDLY.......WEHN以外,还有更好的解释没。就意思上。when 和B before 都可以与 hardly搭配,而在 it is/seems/appears 结构中只能用 before。前者的意思是“刚一...就”,后者的意思是“过了...才”
