问题描述:

it was not long before a helicopter arrived on the scene to rescue the survivors of the plane crash
这里的,before是啥意思啊

before引导时间状语从句,It was not long before......译为:没过多久,就.......
没过多久,一架直升飞机就到了现场挽救在飞机坠毁事故中的幸存者。

before是与之前的not long在一起组成的词组不久前,不久之前

long before 很久之前
希望能够帮到楼主

before是“在什么之前”的意思
"not long before"是一个词组,是“不久前”的意思
