* One room in a three-bedroom apartment is available since Sep. 5th.
正确说法应该是
One room in a three-bedroom apartment is available from Sep. 5th.
如果since后面接某一个时间点的话,意思是说从过去那个时间到现在。
例1:It's been ten years since I came to the USA in August 1993.
例2:I have not heard from her ever since the war broke out in 1937.
记住了,如果你想在since后面跟时间概念的词或短语的话,那么这个时间应该是过去的
某个时间(应该没有例外,若有,请指正)。
