Question

问道中译英
刘先生在离开前四下里看了看办公室.（look about)
我手上的答案：Mr Lin look about the office before he left.
可我觉得应该怎么做：Mr Lin looked about the office before leave.
请问look是不是要用过去时啊？

Answer 1

Mr.Liu looked about the office when /before leaving
例子:Please turn in your paper before leaving.
请在离开前将论文交上.
The guests expressed their thanks before leaving.
客人们临走前表示了谢意.
是要用过去式..
因为看了看办公室这个动作不可能一直进行..是过去某时发生的
..
答案也可以,也可以是我的那种..
