i decided not to buy anything until i had disembarked.请问为什么decide 这里要用过去式,而disembark这却用的过去完成,我感觉有点矛盾,我认为下决心这个动作发生在下船之前,应该用过去完成,

句中的 decided 是针对 had begun bargaining 而言的,也就说“开始在讨价还价”的行为发生在“决定之前”.
后面的 not to buy anything until I had disembarked 是过去行为 decided 的宾语.这个宾语是一个复合结构,即不定式短语 not to buy anything 带有时间状语 until I had disembarked.可见 until 从句是修饰 to buy 的,而不是decided.也就是说,“不买东西”一直要持续到“上岸”,即“上岸以前不买任何东西”或者“上了岸才买东西”.不能理解为“作出决定”这个瞬间行为一直要持续到“上岸”.decide 是是瞬间动词,肯定的瞬间行为不可能一直持续到 until 这个时间,只有在不作为的情况下(did not decide),瞬间行为才能在 until 这个时间发生.
