Everything except the weather
My old friend, Harrison, had lived in the Mediterranean for many years before he returned in England.
He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country.
He had no sooner returned than he bought a house and went to live there.
Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold.
After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock.
He acted as if he had never lived in England before.
In the end, it was more than he could bear.
He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country.
The dream he had had for so many years ended there.
Harrison had thought of everything except the weather.

Focus on grammar
过去完成时表示过去某一时间或某一动作之前已经发生或完成的动作,动作发生的时间是"过去的过去"。它是一个相对的时态,只有在和过去某个时间或动作相比较时才会用到。
e.g. By the end of the match, they had kicked two goals. We had already had lunch before we arrived there.
其结构是"had+过去分词".
它的否定句是在had后边加not,变一般疑问句是把had提前。
