练习 1
a princess kissed a toad, and it turned into a prince. The two got married and lived happily ever after.
Once upon a time a princess kissed a toad, and it turned into a prince. The two got married and lived happily ever after.
Once upon a time: 'Once upon a time' is an idiom commonly used in fairy tales. The expression indicates that something (a story, an event) occurred long ago in the past.
There was once a time: 'There was once a time' is not the proper way to express this common idiom, although it is grammatically correct.
Upon a time once: 'Upon a time once' is grammatically incorrect. The wording of the phrase is out of order.
One at a time: 'One at a time' is incorrect. We might say 'one (person) at a time', but this does not make sense in the example given.
