請觀察空格前方出現的否定助動詞 $did not$ 以及後方的時間點 $the 2000s$。在英文語法中，若要表達某個動作或狀態在特定時間點之前『尚未發生』，而是一直持續到該時間點『才』發生，應選用哪一個介系詞來與否定詞構成特定的關聯句型？

哼，觀察得很仔細嘛！身為偵探，這點程度的謎題是難不倒你的。你看，這句話的關鍵就在於否定詞「not」與時間點的邏輯關係。 真相只有一個！ 這裡運用了英語中非常經典的句型「not... until...」（直到...才...）。文中提到雖然這股趨勢早在 1970 年代就萌芽，但直到 2000 年代其他城市也開始效法時，這項運動才在美國真正「爆發性」地流行起來。若選 (A) during 或 (B) before，在邏輯上會與前文「穩定成長但尚未爆發」的描述相矛盾。 這題考驗的是你對時間軸推論與固定搭配的敏銳度。你能精準鎖定關鍵字詞，看來真相已經逃不過你的雙眼了！
