直译:他被带到了法官面前。
意译:他被带上法庭。
2. before的其它用法
⒈)与情态动词can/could连用
这时候从句虽为肯定形式,根据汉语表达习惯译成“还没来得及就”,如:
Before I could get in a word,he had measured me.
我还没来得及插话他就为我量好了尺寸。
Before she could move,she hear a loud noise,which grew to a terrible error.
她还没来得及迈步,就听见一声巨响,接着就是可怕的隆隆轰鸣。
⒉)用于肯定句中强调主句所表达的时间,距离长,或花费的精力大,译成“才”
(1)The bus driver almost knocked me down before he saw me.
(译:巴士司机差点把我撞到,才看到我。)
(2)The fire lasted about four hours before the firefighters could control.
(译:大火持续了大约四个小时,消防队员才得以控制住。)

⒊)用于否定句中,强调主句所表达的时间,距离短,或花费的精力小,译成“不到……就”如:
(1) Someone called me up in the middle of the night, but they hung up before I could answer the phone.
(译:有人半夜给我打电话,但是我还没来得及接电话,他们就挂了。)
(2) He announced the ending of the meeting before I could get in a word(插嘴).

⒋)主句含有hardly,scarcely等半否定副词时可以译为“刚……就”
(1) We had scarcely left our school before it began to rain.
(2) He had barely taken his place before the bell rang.
这时候主句应用过去完成时态,从句用过去时,还可以用when替代before如:
We had scarcely reached the school before/when the bell rang.
我们刚到学校铃声就响了。
⒌)有时还有“宁愿”的意思
I'd shoot myself before I apologized to him.我宁死也不向他道歉。
⒍)用于It+be/take+时间段+before句型
在这一句型中又可以根据主从句的时态分成两种情况。
若主句是一般时将来时态,从句是一般现在时.若主句是肯定句意思是“要过多长时间才”;若主句是否定形式翻译成“用不了多久就”。
It will be two weeks before everything returns to normal.
两周之后一切才能恢复正常。
It will be many years before the situation improves.
这种状况或许要过许多年才能得以改善。
It won't be long before we meet again.用不了多久我们就会再见面的。
这时若主句是一般过去时从句也是一般过去时。若主句是肯定句翻译成“多长时间之后才”,若主句是否定形式翻译成“没过多久就”。如:
It was some time before I realized the truth.
过了很长一段时间我才了解到真相。
It wasn't long before she became a brave soldier.
没过多久她就成了一名勇敢的战士。

注意:当主句的谓语动词为延续性动词时,before与until有时可以互换。

9.) before long与long before的区别

The work will be finished before long. 工作不久就会完成。

long before意为“很久以前”(其中long是副词。long before单独使用时,before是介词;long before后接从句时,before是连词。)这个词组常与过去时或过去完成时连用,跟从句时也可用在一般现在时的句子中。例如:
