▲once用作副词有两个意思：
1. 一次，一回

I’ll help you once but then you must do it by yourself. 我只帮你一次，但以后你就得自己做了。

2. 一度，从前，曾经
Once there stood an old church on the hill. 山丘上曾经有一座古教堂。
This novel was once very popular but nobody reads it today. 这本小说曾经很受欢迎，但现在没有人读了。
▲once upon a time 是习语
通常用于儿童故事的开头，意思是“从前，很久以前”。如：
Once upon a time there was a princess. 从前有一个公主。
Once upon a time there lived a man known by the name of Joe Beef. 从前有个人名叫乔•比夫。
‘Once upon a time,’ he began, ‘there was a man who had everything.’“很久很久以前，”他开始说道，“有这么一个人，他应有尽有。”
Once upon a time in a faraway land there lived a princess in a big castle. 从前，在很远的地方，有一位美丽的公主住在一座很大的城堡里。
