Never before暗示使用完成时态的。对比看看:
(1)I was never happier before than I am today.(2)I have never been happier before than I am today.
那句是正确表达“我从未像今天这么快乐过”?当然是第二种表达,因为是把从过去到今天之前的那一大段时期来跟“今天”对比,强调从过去到现在都不比今天的程度,也就是强调这是至今为止最大的程度。
再看一句:I was not richer than I am today, but I used to be a lot happier.“我以前并没有今天这般富有,但我过去比现在快乐得多。” 这才是简单的今昔对比。
