| 词组 | then |
| 释义 | 1．注意下面每组里的第一句里没有 then，第二句里有 then： 每组的第一句里不可加上 then，第二句里的 then 可有可无，有了语气重些。then 含有“然后”或“当然”等意思。 2．把 then 用在句子的开首往往不好，如下面两个 then 都不好： It is getting late. Then we ought to go to bed. （该改作 As it is getting late, we ought to go to bed。） He went out. Then his wife shut the door. （可以改作 When he had gone out, his wife shut the door。） 3．下面两句在口语里都普通，在文字里有人以为该在 then 前面加上 and： She slept for a while, then took a walk. He put on his cap, then started out into the night. 4．then and there 和 there and then 都可以说。例如：I decided to do it then and there (或 there and then). |
