Past perfect, before, after ; Simple Past vs Past Perfect

剛在AUE上讀到的一篇,內容很不錯:
Past perfect and "before"
(請從靠中間部份讀起:"Here's another view on this from a book called _Grammar for English Language Teachers_,....)
這 一篇則是提到美式英文和英式英文的差異。
這 一篇則是進一步的更有深度的回答。
寫的人(J. K.)本身是ESL/EFL老師(教英文非母語的人),他寫的東西和他的教學網站內容都相當不錯。
