Never before have they been so inspired and so daring as at present.

题目

Never before have they been so inspired and so daring as at present.

答案

以前他们从来没有像目前这样受到如此鼓舞,变得如此勇敢.
Never放在句首要倒装,never before表示以前.全句不倒装的话应该是：
They have never been so inspired and so daring before as at present.
这就好理解了.
用的是so.as.,比较的是过去和现在.
