none too soon = not (at all) too soon but not (very) late
not a moment too soon - at the last possible moment before it is too late.
not a moment too soon: so late that it is almost too late (MED)
从MED的解释,可以理解为:
none too soon - not (at all) (too soon): 侧重于不早
not a moment too soon - it is late, it is very late, it is almost too late. 侧重于晚。
但是,两者都不到too late的程度。
not a moment too soon这个短语,大多含有“negative”的意味,但是也不尽然,路透社对东芝的这篇报道,含义则属于“positive”。
所以,表示just in time的意味。

For Toshiba, a signed deal would come not a moment too soon as it needs to raise billions of dollars to cover liabilities arising from its now bankrupt U.S. nuclear unit Westinghouse before the end of the financial year in March. If it fails to do that, it could be delisted. |
