问题描述:

Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water.
不太明白句中after的用法和意思

after 在某事发生或某段时间之后
在水里游了一夜之后,她游到了海岸.
He finished his homework after his teacher told him to .
老师告诫他完成作业之后,他做好了作业.

意思是:在。。。。之后
用法是:引导时间状语
整句话的意思是:在水里待了一整个晚上后,她游上了岸。

after:在什么之后了哦.
spending the . 相当于一个名词结构.
整句的意思:在水中待了整晚过后,她游向了岸边.
例子:
She went to Russia after breakfast.
也可放句首哦!
After walking for 20 miles, he decided to have a rest.
